i.LINK (AUDIO) Output Setting

When the i.LINK (AUDIO) terminal is connected to an amplifier or a D/A converter, select proper i.LINK output setting.

When playback is stopped, hold down the STOP button for more than 2 seconds and release it when “i.60958”, “i.PCM” or “i.OFF” appears on the display.

Each time the STOP button is pressed for 2 seconds, the output setting changes.

When using the i.LINK terminal, select “i.60958” or “i.PCM”, and set the Digital Output setting to “ON”.

i.60958

DSD signal is output during playback of a Super Audio CD. The digital signal in IEC60958 format is output during playback of a CD.

i.PCM

DSD signal is output during playback of a Super Audio CD. Linear PCM digital signal is output during playback of a CD.

<Some amplifiers may regard this signal as DVD-Audio.

i.OFF (default)

If the component connected via the i.LINK terminal is compatible with the flow rate control, and if you set the flow status of the X-03/X-03SE ON, the connected component will work in the flow rate control mode.

<Though the flow status function of the X-03/X-03SE is not same as the flow rate control, RAM buffer of the connected component will absorb clock differences and control the flow rate using the clock of the connected component.

<In the following cases, set the flow status OFF:

The connected component isn’t compatible with the flow rate control.

Though the connected component is compatible with the flow rate control, the flow rate control doesn’t work properly with this unit.
