FAnalog audio output terminals

Use either the XLR or RCA (pin) FRONT terminals for analog stereo output.

If your amplifier has balanced XLR analog audio inputs, connect the XLR jacks on the unit to the amplifier’s XLR jacks, otherwise use the RCA (pin) connections.

For surround (5.1) amplifiers with analog inputs, also use the RCA (pin) SURROUND pair, CENTER and SUBWOOFER connections (in addition to the FRONT pair).

<If you are connecting only 2 channels, use the 2CH/MULTI button on the remote control to select “2 ch”. For surround sound with six speakers connected, you can select either “2ch” or “5.1 ch” mode. Note that if multi-channel program material is played and 2-channel mode is selected, the multi-channel material will be downmixed to two channels, and output through the L and R front outputs.

GDigital audio output terminals

The unit may be connected using either coaxial or optical (TOS) commercially available cables to amplifiers including a decoder, or to digital audio devices such as CD recorders, etc.

COAXIAL: Use RCA (pin) digital audio cable

OPTICAL: Use optical digital audio cable (TOS)

<The optical terminal is covered by a shutter. Make sure that the cable is firmly inserted, but do not force the cable when connecting it or removing it, in order not to cause damage to the unit.

Application notes

<To enjoy surround sound from a DVD Video disc, you may use either an amplifier with a decoder, connected digitally, or an amplifier with separate analog inputs for each channel.

<The unit does not output digital surround sound from DVD Audio or SACD discs, so to enjoy surround sound from these media, you must make analog connections to a suitably equipped surround sound amplifier.

<DVD Audio disc signals are converted where necessary from 192kHz or 176.4kHz to 96kHz/88.2kHz or 48kHz/44.1kHz. However, there may be some occasions when digital audio cannot be output by the unit from such a disc.

HWord sync connector

This allows the use of an externally-generated word clock connection, using a commercially available BNC coaxial cable.

Devices producing such a suitable clock signal include external D-A converters, or dedicated word clock generators. Connect the SYNC OUT (or WORD OUT) of such a device to the unit.

IDigital output expansion slot

This slot is reserved for a future upgrade, which will allow the output of SACD data in digital format.

RS-232C connection

 

 

This serial port is used in service and diagnostic operations,

 

 

as well as for upgrading the unit.

 

 

 

 

K SIGNAL GND connection

Use a commercially available PVC-covered cord to connect the signal ground terminal on the unit to the amplifier signal ground.

<Note that this is NOT an electrical safety ground (earth).

LPower cord receptacle

After all other connections have been made, insert the supplied AC power cord into this receptacle, then connect the other end of the power cord into the wall socket. Ensure that your AC voltage corresponds to the voltage marked on the rear panel of the unit. Consult a qualified electrician if you are in doubt.

<In order to avoid the risk of electric shock, fire, and so on, only use the supplied power cord.

<If you are not going to use the unit for some time, disconnect the power cord from the wall socket.
