Safety instructions
Product features
• Please refer to the safety instructions in the manual of the
unit in which you will be installing the converter.
• When installing the converter, carefully follow the instructions beginning on page 5. If you are uncertain, plea se ask
a qualified technician or your SPL dealer for assistance.
The 24/96 AD Converter module is an optional digital output
for compatible SPL devices* with a plug-and-play design
for easy installation. It offers an S/P-DIF output with both
coaxial and optical connectors in par allel.
The heart of the module is a 24-bit converter by AKM® with
a variable sample rate of up to 96 kHz. The sample rate
can be switched between 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96 kHz. Highly
accurate quart z oscillators ensure a clean, low-jitter master
clock.
The converter can be synced to other digital devices via
the SYNC input. If a valid signal is present, the converter
automatically conforms to the sample rate received at the
SYNC input. A yellow LED illuminates to display a valid sync
signal. The internal oscillators are automatically disabled
when an external clock signal is present to prevent interference.
An extremely effective voltage stabilizing circuit ensures
that the converter continuously receives sufficient and
stable voltage – an important prerequisite for clean, transparent audio.
The compact design of the input stage guarantees the
shortest possible signal path to the converter. Oversized
grounding surfaces on both sides of the circuit board effectively reduce interference and ensure optimal separation
between analog and digital components.
