Unpacking the Millennium ADC

Carefully remove the unit and accessory kit from the carton, visually check for shipping damage. Contact
both the shipper and your Lyngdorf Audio dealer immediately if the unit bears any sign of damage from
mishandling. All Lyngdorf Audio equipment is carefully inspected before leaving our factory.

Keep shipping carton and packing material for future use or in the unlikely event that
the unit needs servicing. If this unit is shipped without the original packing, damage
could occur and void the warranty.

Operating Voltage

The Millennium ADC is selectable to one of the following power ratings:

110V-120V~ at 50-60Hz with a power rating of 50W
220V-240V~ at 50-60Hz with a power rating of 50W

Connect the power input only to the AC source matching the setting shown on the
voltage selector switch. The warranty will not cover any damage caused by connect­ing to inappropriate AC mains.

The Millennium ADC has three power modes:

OFF

1.
After Power off or Standby, the settings of Millennium ADC are retained. Please note that some parts
of the mains entry section still carry live mains.

Introduction

Congratulations on your investment in the Lyngdorf Audio Millennium ADC (Analog to Digital Converter).

The Lyngdorf Audio Millennium ADC is a high-performance 2-channel Analog to Digital Converter with
4 line inputs. Using a combination of state-of-the-art analog circuitry and Digital Signal Processing to
support the two balanced 24 bit converters per channel, the Millennium ADC sets new performance
standards for analog to digital conversion.

The optional Lyngdorf Audio Phono Stage is a plug-in module for the Millennium ADC that allows a
gramophone to be connected directly to the Millennium ADC.
The RIAA equalization in the Lyngdorf Audio Phono Stage is implemented with tight-tolerance polypro­pylene capacitors. To further improve de-emphasis possibilities, an additional 7 de-emphasis curves are
available in the DSP for optimal playback of records made before implementation of the RIAA (Record
Industry Association of America) standard.
