To experience the full 768kHz upsampling benefits of the M Scaler, you must connect it in dual data mode to a Chord Electronics DAC using the two BNC cables provided. Plug BNC OUT 1 into BNC IN 1 and BNC OUT 2 into BNC IN 2. If you only plug one BNC cable into the device, you will only experience maximum upsampling of 384kHz. You no longer require your source to be connected to your DAC. If you are connecting M Scaler to Hugo 2, you may use a third-party BNC cable terminated with a 3.5mm TRS jack. This is not supplied. Please refer to the Hugo 2 user manual; Step 03 - Connectivity.

Connecting M Scaler to a third-party DAC |
4.0 |
Connecting M Scaler to a third-party DAC without a supported dual data mode (x2 parallel BNC inputs) will yield maximum upsampling of 384kHz. The maximum upsampling will depend on the highest sample rate that your DAC can recieve. We recommend connecting M Scaler to your DAC via BNC/SPDIF for the maximum possible upsampling of 384kHz, if supported, in this configuration. Connect any output of M Scaler to the corresponding input of your DAC. You no longer require your source to be connected to your DAC.
