IntroductionYour Rega Jupiter has been designed to be effective, easy to useand with the performance to rival even the most expensive andesoteric CD players, but at a sensible price. We have omitted all theuseless gimmicks and genuinely concentrated the manufacturingcosts on high quality component parts, and employed a uniquedesign direction, both necessary to reproduce a musical soundquality from a digital source of information.For example: A complex sub-chassis suspension is normallynecessary to isolate the CD player. However, they are detrimental tothe sound quality and degrade in time, causing malfunction. Regahave designed a VCS* foot system which minimises footfall shock,and therefore eradicates the need for a suspension, while maximisingsound quality by reducing error correction.Rega’s design skill and the use of extremely high quality componentsensure that your Jupiter will perform at its optimum.The tips that follow may help to give you maximum musicalenjoyment and ease of use for many years.*VCS - Viscous Coupled SystemContentsIntroduction.............................................................................2Design Innovation................................................................3-4Installation...............................................................................5Interconnects..........................................................................5Output Connections................................................................6In Use................................................................................7-10Additional CD Functions..................................................11-18The handling of CD’s............................................................19Care of the Player.................................................................20Troubleshooting...............................................................21-23Specifications........................................................................24Owners Log..........................................................................252Mission StatementRega’s philosophy is to make high quality products at sensible prices, as a meansof reproducing music as faithfully as possible.
