Wadia Digital 170, iTransport with Universal Dock for iPod Connections, Choosing a Digital Cable

Connections

Avoid static discharge to the inputs or outputs. To prevent static shocks, touch any grounded surface, such as the chassis of any component that uses a grounded 3-prong plug, before connecting or removing a cable.

It is unlikely that a static discharge will damage the unit, but it may cause the Wadia 170iTransport circuitry to “lock-up” (see Lock-Up under Trouble Shooting in Appendices).

Choosing a Digital Cable

The Wadia 170iTransport uses a Coaxial S/PDIF Connectionwith an RCA connector.

The quality of any of these transmission methods depends on the quality of the cable and the sophistication of the transmitter and receiver. While the cable included with the Wadia 170iTransport will certainly work for the transmission of digital information between the Wadia 170iTransport and a Digital to Analog Converter or other digital receiving device, we recognize distinct advantages in higher quality cables available today.

Again, we highly recommend that you take advantage of your dealer’sexperience and, most importantly, trust your ears.
