INTRODUCTION 3

Introduction

Thank you for choosing Harman Kardon.

The CDR 30 CD Player/Recorder is a unique

product, designed not only to playback your

existing library of compact discs, but also to

record compact discs from either analog or digi-

tal programs. You may feed signals (for record-

ing) to the CDR 30 from external sources such

as an A/V receiver, a tuner, tape deck or a CD

player, or you may simply place a CD in one

deck, and make a copy using a recordable CD in

the other deck.

Designed and engineered by Harman Kardon,

the CDR 30 is among the first audio CD

recorders with x4 speed capability. This means

that it will take only 15 minutes to copy a

60-minute disc. The CDR 30 is also the first

CD-R/RW audio recorder to offer MP3 playback,

dubbing of MP3 discs to conventional CD discs,

and HDCD

playback.

The CDR 30 not only records with the highest

speed and quality available but it is also an

audiophile CD player.Through the use of audio-

phile-grade digital-to-analog converters (DAC’s),

the CDR 30’s performance rivals the most

sophisticated high-end players. Should you wish

to bypass the internal DAC’s and use an external

digital processor, coax and optical digital outputs

are available. Thanks to the CDR 30’s dual-tray

design, you may even play two separate discs at

the same time, for parties or multi-room applica-

tions.To make CD playback more enjoyable, the

CDR 30 also features a wide range of program

and repeat functions.

Since CD recorders and MP3 are a relatively new

technology, this may be your first CD-R product.

Although CD recorders resemble play-only CD

machines in many ways, there are some impor-

tant differences between a standard CD and a

CD-R. In addition, making a CD-R recording is

also a different process than what you may be

familiar with for making audio tape or cassette

recordings. For that reason, we encourage you to

read through this manual so that you are fully

acquainted with the way CD recording works.

This small investment in your time will pay major

dividends in the enjoyment that will result from

proper use of the CDR 30.

If you have additional questions about this

product – its installation or operation – that are

not answered in this manual, please contact

your dealer, who is your best source of local

information.

Important Information About CD

Recording

In order to get the most enjoyment from your

new CD-R recorder, please pay special attention

to the following sections of the manual that pro-

vide information about the special features and

capabilities of CD Recorders.

■ The CDR 30 plays all standard CD audio discs

but for recording, the CDR 30 uses special

CD-R and CD-RW discs designed only for

audio use. CD-R discs designed for computer

use will not work in the CDR 30. See page 14

for more information on which types of discs

are used with the CDR 30.

■ The last step in making a CD-R and CD-RW

recording is the finalization process. Unless

this step is properly done, the disc will not

work in other players. See page 24 for infor-

mation on finalizing discs.

■ Once finalized, CD-R discs will play in any CD

player, but CD-RW discs will only play in the

CDR 30 and certain other machines. Check

the specifications of your CD player if you

have questions about compatibility with

CD-RW discs.

■ As with all CD players, except those designed

specifically for portable use, you should never

move a CD player while there is a disc inside

one of the decks. NEVER move the CDR 30

until discs have been removed from both

decks.
