Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Peachtree Audio musicBox!
At Peachtree Audio we try to design products that provide a magical musical experience. When you connect the digital output from a Sonos player, a Squeezebox, an Apple TV or
Apple Airport Express you’ll get the full benet of the quality built into these products. And
when you connect your computer to the musicBox’s digital USB input - we think you’re going to love what you hear from your music library! The ability of the musicBox’s internal
digital to analog converter to process and play compressed and uncompressed music les
from your computer’s hard drive - or from any of your favorite digital program sources -
makes the musicBox a “must have” in your ofce, on your desktop, in the kitchen, in the
den, or in the bedroom. Anywhere you listen to music from your computer - that’s where the musicBox belongs!
And . . . prepare your ears for a special treat when you plug your supported iPod into the musicBox’s built-in iPod dock. The musicBox takes the digital bitstream from your iPod and sends it to the musicBox’s own high-performance internal DAC. From there the vacuum
tube preamplier circuitry and the MOSFET power amplier of the musicBox work their
magic. The result? Sound from your iPod rivaling that of expensive audiophile-grade CD players!
This manual is a guide to the functions of your musicBox. It shows you how to connect both digital and analog sources, and offers tips on getting the best performance. The ability to mate with virtually any digital source, while providing superior sound in a small and elegant package, makes the musicBox a special product. It’s one we’re proud to offer.
We sincerely hope the musicBox provides you with years of enjoyable music listening. Visit our website at www.peachtreeaudio.com for tips on getting the best sound from the music stored on your computer, and from all your digital sources. Contact your dealer or us directly if you have questions. Also, now is a good time to go to www.peachtreeaudio.com to register your musicBox purchase.
