N05101 STREAMING SACD PLAYER/DAC / QUICK START GUIDE

OVERVIEW

INTRODUCING THE MARK LEVINSON N

Congratulations on your purchase of the Mark Levinson

5101

N05101

Network Streaming SACD player and DAC.

The

N05101

pairs decades of superlative audio engineering with the latest advancements to deliver unmatched performance and value. With a bold new industrial design, PrecisionLinkII DAC, and multiple control options, the

N05101

delivers luxurious fidelity with premium features and flexibility. The Mark Levinson N05101

is proudly designed, engineered, and precision-crafted

in the USA.

Super Audio CD Playback

The

N05101

features precision transport and playback of all major file formats including SACD, CD-A, CD-R and CDRW. It supports FLAC, WAV, AIFF, OGG, MP3, AAC and WMA. The Mark Levinson PrecisionLink II DAC and PurePath analog circuitry ensure that DSD content is flawlessly converted and presented through the

N05101

's analog outputs.

Network Streaming

Control

System integration and communication ports include IP (Ethernet), RS-232, IR input, and 12V trigger input. A newly designed, aluminum IR remote is included with the N In addition it can be controlled from a phone or tablet with the

Mark Levinson 5Kontrol

mobile application.

Industrial Design

Robust materials, lavish finishes and bold geometry are celebrated attributes of Mark Levinson designs. One-inch thick solid aluminum front panels are bead-blasted, blackanodized, and machine contoured to flow seamlessly into the sleek glass display, which itself is recessed into a bead-blasted and clear-anodized aluminum bezel. Meticulous artistry is evident in the fine details including debossed top cover vents, screen printing behind the glass panel and aluminum buttons – all resting on matching custom aluminum feet.

The

N05101

can stream from NAS drives connected to the

same network as the

N05101

, as well as receive streaming

audio from DLNA and UPnP devices connected to the network.

USB Drive Playback

The

N05101

can navigate and playback audio files from a USB

flash drive connected to the USB type-A input.

DAC

The

N05101

features outstanding digital audio capability with the Mark Levinson PrecisionLink II DAC. The latest generation ESS PRO Sabre 32-bit D/A converter with jitter elimination circuitry and a fully balanced, discrete current-to-voltage converter form the heart of the digital audio processing stage. With one coaxial and one optical S/PDIF digital input, the

N05101

serves as a premium stand-alone DAC for digital

sources.

In addition the N05101 has one coaxial and one optical S/PDIF digital output which will pass a PCM stereo signal through to a device such as a Mark Levinson N

5802 or N05805

integrated amp.

POWER REQUIREMENTS

Connection to an AC voltage other than that for which the N05101

is intended can create a safety and fire hazard and may damage the unit. If you have any questions about the voltage requirements for your area, contact your authorized Mark Levinson dealer before plugging the

WARNING! MAKE SURE all components in the audio system are properly grounded. DO NOT defeat the safety purpose of polarized or grounding-type plugs with “ground-lifter” or “cheater” adapters. Doing so may cause a dangerous voltage to build up between components, which may result in personal injuries and/or product damage.

Unplug the storms and extended periods of non-use.

CAUTION: Before moving the unit, make sure it is powered off by removing the power cord from the AC power outlet and the unit’s rear panel.

Using the Remote Control

When using the remote control, aim it toward the unit’s front panel IR receiver. Make sure that no objects, such as furniture, blocks the remote’s line of sight to the receiver. Bright lights, fluorescent lights, and plasma video displays may interfere with the function of the remote.

• The remote has a range of about 17 feet (5m), depending on

the lighting conditions.

• You can use the remote at an angle of up to 45° on either side

of the unit.

• Placing the

N05101

behind tinted glass will reduce the remote

control’s effective range.

If the remote control operates intermittently, replace both batteries with new ones.

PCM Filter

This setting lets you set the filter characteristic for PCM digital content such as the digital output from a CD player. We recommend trying several of these filters with the types of music you typically listen to and choose the one you prefer. There are no right or wrong choices.

The available filters are:

•

Fast Minimum Phase

•

Slow Minimum Phase

•

Apodiz Fast

•

Hybrid Fast Minimum Phase

•

Brickwall

•

Fast Linear

•

Slow Linear

“Fast” filters provide steeper roll-off at high frequencies and therefore do a better job of attenuating unwanted high frequency “aliased” signals. However, they exhibit more ringing on signal transients.

DAC SACD Filter

Select the frequency the low pass filter is applied to SACD playback:

47kHz, 50kHz, 60kHz

only if you experience noise or signal dropouts (most likely from high jitter sources such as cable TV set-top boxes).

Digital Output

This allows the user to limit the sample frequency of the digital output to

48kHz Max, 96kHz Max

or set to

No Downsampling

(full source bandwidth).

System Info

This is a read only menu, use ▲▼ to scroll through:

“Slow” filters exhibit less ringing on transients, but they do a poorer job of attenuating unwanted high frequency signals.

“Linear Phase” filters exhibit symmetric pre- and post-ringing, i.e., they ring before and after the transient signal.

“Minimum Phase” filters exhibit only post-ringing, which some listeners feel sounds more natural, but they typically ring for longer than linear phase filters.

The “Hybrid” filter blends some linear phase and some minimum phase characteristics to achieve good high frequency attenuation with reduced pre-ringing.

The “Apodizing” filter blends linear phase characteristics with techniques to reduce pre and post-ringing.

The “Brick Wall” filter is optimized purely for attenuating unwanted high frequency aliased signals.

TROUBLESHOOTING

NO POWER

Examine the power cord to ensure that it is connected to both the AC mains connector and a working, un-switched electrical outlet.

Examine the electrical circuit breaker to ensure that power is being supplied to the electrical outlet to which the N05101 is connected.

Make sure the N05101 is not in Standby mode. The front-panel standby LED illuminates fully and continually when the N05101 is On. The LED flashes slowly when the N

5101 is in Standby mode.

REMOTE CONTROL DOES NOT OPERATE

Eliminate obstructions between the remote control IR transmitter and the IR receiver on the N05101 front-panel display. Check the menu to make sure the front panel IR was not disabled.

Make sure the rear-panel IR input connector is not being used.

Make sure the remote control is positioned within 17 feet (5m) and within a 45-degree angle of the N05101 front panel.

Make sure the IR receiver on the N05101 front-panel display is not exposed to intense sunlight, halogen light, or fluorescent light. This can cause IR reception to become unreliable.

Replace the remote control batteries.

NO SIGNAL AT THE LINE OUTPUTS

Make sure all associated components are connected to working electrical outlets and powered On.

Make sure the source device connected to the selected N05101 input is producing an output signal.

NO SOUND WHEN PLAYING AN SACD

Make sure you are monitoring the Analog outputs from the N05101 when listening to SACDs.

The digital outputs are for PCM sources only. DSD (Direct Stream Digital) audio is not routed to the Coaxial or TOSLINK outputs due to copy protection requirements.

AUDIO HAS A HUMMING SOUND

Disconnect components one at a time to isolate the problem.

Once you have identified the problematic component, make sure it is properly grounded and connected to the same electrical circuit as the N

5101.

FRONT-PANEL DISPLAY NOT WORKING

Press any remote or front panel button to restore the display from the off mode.

N05101 STREAMING SACD PLAYER/DAC / QUICK START GUIDE

NO CONNECTIVITY VIA ETHERNET

Verify that an Ethernet cable is correctly connected between the router, switch or hub and the N05101.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Verify the age of the router, switch or hub. If the router, switch or hub is more than three years old, there may be a communication issue with the N

5101.

Power cycle the unit and use a newer router, switch or hub between the network and the N05101.

IF ALL ELSE FAILS…

Power cycle the N05101 by unplugging the power cord, waiting at least 10 seconds and reconnecting the power cord. Restore factory-default settings.
