There are Two ways to connect your CD player to your 220-Pro and use the CD player as a transport whilst the internal DAC of the Devialet does the D-A conversion.

1. Using the Coaxial S/PDIF RCA connector from your CD player's digital output - -> to the Devialet Digital RCA input and a 75 ohms digital RCA-RCA cable.
2. Using the AES/EBU XLR output from your CD player's digital output (if you have a XLR digital output in your CD player) to the AES/EBU Digital input of your Devialet using a 110 ohms AES/EBU XLR-XLR cable.

Note: AES/EBU XLR will sound superior to digital S/PDIF RCA.
