Speaker setup advice
THREE has been engineered to maximise performance
with a wide range of loudspeaker types and placement
opons. When you start-up THREE, it automacally
assesses your speakers in a fracon of a second and
realigns the amplier to match the terminal impedance
of your speakers (this we call Speaker Impedance
Detecon or SID).
Cyrus predicted that THREE will be used with larger
speakers, but there is no reason why you cannot use
THREE with high performance compact speakers.
All THREE models are ed with superb DSP tone
controls that enable tonal adjustments that audiophiles
would have rejected in the past to be enjoyed without
degrading the sound.
Whatever your chosen speaker setup, SID and the
extremely advanced DSP tone controls will enable
integraon with any speaker type.
Larger, oor standing speakers
Some owners will choose to partner THREE with a set
of high performance oor standing speakers cosng
many thousands of pounds, providing astonishing audio
quality, scale and dynamics.
Out of the box THREE is set to partner tradional
oor standing speakers. The default Speaker Cong
seng is therefore 2.0 channels. (Two speakers and no
subwoofer).
The DSP tone controls are factory set to apply no
correcon.
Compact speakers
Many owners will select high quality compact speakers
that THREE can drive to sound far more capable than
their smaller boxes suggest. If you have chosen compact
speakers, possibly mounted on shelves and partnered
with a compact sub bass speaker, THREE can be set up
to maximise the performance of your system.
If your THREE system includes compact speakers with a
subwoofer you will need to change the default speaker
sengs to 2.1 channels to acvate the subwoofer
and apply a crossover between the speakers and
subwoofer.
Changing speaker and tone control sengs
To change the channel sengs, crossover sengs or
subwoofer gain, refer to the Setup > Speaker cong
secon.
To experiment with tone controls and shape the
response to best match your room, refer to the Setup >
Equaliser secon.

Music libraries
This secon includes some background informaon and
advice from Cyrus about digital music libraries.
If you plan to set up a music library or use an exisng
library with THREE, this secon will help you to get the
best results from your library.
If you are not planning to link THREE to a music library at
this stage, you can skip this secon.
Audophile systems have progressed over the years from
shelves of fragile vinyl records or magnec tape to racks
of compact discs, played without any physical contact.
Perfect sound forever? Perhaps, but for a serious
audiophile an extensive collecon of CDs sll occupies a
large space in a room, usually in the listening room itself.
Cataloguing the CDs can be a chore and remembering
which album your favourite tracks are on can be quite a
challenge in a large collecon of CDs.
THREE answers all of these problems, by using computer
hardware to take the music content from your discs
and store the enre collecon in a music library on a
networked hard-drive (NAS) that occupies lile more
space than a few CDs.
Seng up a network music library
Choosing a le format for your library
Hard-drive size was once a limitaon for storage of a
high quality, uncompressed music library. This is no
longer the case as high capacity hard-drives are now
aordable, and mulple drives are also an opon.
Lossless formats are also now available, oering the
quality of uncompressed les, but with a useful saving
of around 40% of the le size.
If you already have an exisng library of uncompressed
WAV or AIFF les ripped from CD, then this will deliver
the highest quality when played through THREE.
If you have an exisng library that includes MP3, WMA,
AAC or other compressed format les, you may want
to consider creang a new library of uncompressed or
lossless les from your CD collecon. Although THREE
is compable with compressed les, the compression
used by these formats to pack the les into a small
space removes essenal informaon from the music
that cannot be replaced on replay.
The same recommendaon applies if you are seng up
a new music library for use with THREE. In a new library,
uncompressed les carry the highest recommendaon.
Mixing formats
THREE will decode most music le types, so it is quite
acceptable to retain an exisng library of compressed
format les, rip new music entries to uncompressed or
lossless les and replace the compressed les as me
permits.
THREE can also browse mulple libraries, so you may
prefer to retain a library of compressed les for portable
audio etc., and set up a new library of uncompressed or
lossless music just for THREE.
Buying music online
There are currently few sources online for the purchase
of high quality uncompressed or lossless les. To achieve
the best quality for your music library, rip your music
from CD to uncompressed or lossless les.
Further advice on seng up a library
A good retailer can advise on seng up a library of music
les for use with THREE.

All-wireless system
Not recommended!
Although Cyrus Wi- technology can provide a really easy
installaon soluon, wireless transfer can be aected
by the building and other Wi- equipment, Therefore,
where possible, a wired installaon is recommended for
the best transfer of large les.
Advantages
• Looks simple to install.
Disadvantages
• Lower quality connecon between networked
components.
• Installaon and conguraon of UPnP server soware
on each network computer will be necessary to
permit access to the music library.
• Music is only available to THREE when the
computer(s) containing the music library is switched
on.

Connecng to THREE
Cauon! Before connecng any cables
To avoid possible damage to THREE, it is essenal
to disconnect THREE and all its sources from the
mains supply when making or changing any signal
connecons.
Always nish connecng up the signal cables, then
connect the mains supplies.
Connecng to a computer network
Connecon to a computer network which has internet
access will be necessary if you want to stream music via
your network or to listen to internet radio.
There are two network connecon opons, wired
ethernet cable connecon or 802.11g wireless. If
THREE detects a wired connecon, this will be used in
preference to a wireless connecon.
Wired connecon is strongly recommended as this
enables a far higher data bandwidth than wireless
connecon.
Wired ethernet connecon
THREE is supplied with a 1m length ethernet cable.
If this cable is not suitable for your installaon, pre-
assembled ethernet cables of the correct length are
readily available. Measure the distance that the cable
will run between THREE and a spare connecon on
the router/switch, or if the building is pre-wired with
ethernet cable, to the nearest ethernet socket on the
wall. Obtain an ethernet cable of at least this length.
• Plug the cable into the ethernet socket 1^ on the back
panel.
The plug will latch into place.
• Connect the other end of the cable to the modem/
router or wall socket.
NOTE: Ethernet wired connecon is very robust and will
run over distances of 50m or more without requiring a
repeater.
802.11g wireless aerial
If you are connecng THREE to a network via 802.11g
wireless, you will need to t the wireless aerial.
• Screw the aerial directly onto the Wi- aerial
connector
e
on the back panel.
The aerial should be aligned vercally for best
results.
Connecng a radio aerial
Indoor aerial
• Screw the telescopic aerial (supplied) directly to the
DAB/FM aerial socket
f
.
• Extend the aerial fully.
If radio broadcasts are noisy or intermient, signal
strength may be marginal and an outdoor aerial will be
necessary.
Outdoor aerial
For best radio recepon, an outdoor aerial is always
recommended.
Your local aerial installer will check the signal strength
available and supply the correct aerial for your area. A TV
aerial will not be suitable. The cable must be terminated
with the correct ‘F-type’ connector.

i
-
1@
.
Make a note of the input number used for each
source as the inputs can be re-named to match your
source at the set-up stage.
Connecng an analogue audio source
Compable sources
The analogue input is available for the connecon of
stereo analogue audio sources including -
• Analogue output from CD/DVD Players
• Analogue output from DAB or FM Radio tuners
• Phono pre-amplier for a turntable
• Televisions
• Analogue output from Satellite Receivers
• Analogue tape/disc recorders
Connecng an analogue source
• Connect a stereo audio interconnect between the
analogue source and the Analogue In sockets
1&
on
the rear panel.
The white (le) and red (right) coloured plugs help
you ensure the le and right channels are correctly
connected at each end.
The analogue input can be re-named to match your
source at the setup stage.
