Connecting Another CD
Player
If you have a Sony CD player in which 5, 50,
200, 300, or 400 discs can be inserted and
which is equipped with the CONTROL A1II
(or CONTROL A1) jack and the command
mode of that player can be set to CD 3, you can
control that player as the second player with
this player. After connecting this player and an
amplifier, follow the procedure below.
Be sure to turn off the power of each player
before making this connection.
1 Connect the players with an audio cord
(see also “Hookups” on page 6).
2 Connect the players with a monaural
(2P) mini-plug cord.
For details on this connection, see “Using
the CONTROL A1II control system” on
page 20.
3 Set the command mode of this player
to CD1 (factory setting) or CD2, and set
that of the second player to CD3.
Check the display for the current command
mode of this player, if the mode is CD3,
you have to change the mode as described
below.
When the setting of both players is
complete, set the CD1/2/3 switches on each
remote accordingly.
For details on how to operate the second
player, see “Controlling Another CD
Player” on page 18 and “Playing
Alternately” on page 19.

• Do not connect a player other than that you use as
the second player to the 2ND CD IN jacks of this
