UNPACKING
First check and identify the contents of your preamplifier package, as listed below:
● D/A Converter
● CD User manual
Read this before operating your unit
● Please read this manual carefully, to assure proper operation and the possible performance.
● Switch off the unit before connecting or disconnecting any input or output cables.
● Do not touch the inner pins of rear panel connectors, electrostatic discharge may cause permanent
damage to the unit.
● Choose the installation location for the unit carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to a
source of heat. Avoid also locations subject to vibration and excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture.
● To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture.
● Do not use force when operating switches, knobs and other controls.

1. START UP DISPLAY
The start up display is shown approximatively 3 seconds when main power is switched on. It is then replaced by the main screen.
2. MAIN SCREEN
The main screen is the default display during normal operation. It shows the name of the digital input format selected.
To choose between input formats turn left or right until the desired input format is diplayed.
Options :

● SPDIF 1 or 2
● BNC 1 or 2
● TOSLINK
Select between the various options according to your digital source and the connection established.
UPSAMPLING
When selecting a new source, the display shows the upsampling details. The sampling rate conversion to the high definition signal which is then converted to the analogue domain is shown in kHz and is displayed for approx. 2 seconds upon successful lock on to the data stream of the stream of the chosen digital input format.
Hereafter the display returns to default main screen.
If the system has not been able to lock on to the data stream of the chosen input the display shows

SPECIFICATIONS
D/A Converter is a 2 channel 24/384kHz upsampler and digital to analogue conversion unit.
D/A Converter features software based Q5™ sample rate conversion technology. Each incoming data stream is converted into a high definition 24bit/384kHz signal prior to being converted to the analogue domain.
The complexity of the analogue reconstruction filter is significantly reduced by using a 384kHz sampling rate. This result in near perfect phase linearity and soundstage quality.
Technical data
Digital input : one S/PIDF, 75 Ohm, 0.5 V, on RCA connector and
one AES/EBU, 100 Ohm, 5 V, on XLR connector
Analogue output : either balanced, 4.7 Vrms, on XLR connectors or
unbalanced, 2.35 Vrms, on RCA connectors
Impedance : 75 Ohm
24 bit / 44.1kHz input signal :
Harmonic distortion (TH+N) : -110dBr @ 0dB FS
Dynamic (THD+N @ -60 dB FS) : 121 dBr
Signal to noise 20 Hz to 22kHz :
3.2 µV @ 4.7 Vrms balanced
1.6 µV @ 2.35 Vrms unbalanced
