Quick Start

Unpacking and Placement

Unpack each of the cartons. Check each component for shipping damage and verify that the operating voltage matches your local AC voltage. The Wadia 931 Digital Controller should be positioned near the source components, the Wadia 921 Mono Decoding Computers should be placed near the amplifier or amplifiers.

Connections

Use the illustrations below and on the following page to connect the Wadia series 9 Decoding Computer System. All rear-panel connectors are labeled. Input 1 on the 931 Digital Controller is configured for ClockLink. If you are using a source component equipped with ClockLink, such as the Wadia 270 CD transport, connect it to Input 1. Non-ClockLink sources should not be connected to ClockLink inputs. For instructions to configure any input to turn ClockLink on or off, see Configurations on page 22.

Level Setting

The Maximum Output Level can be set to match the sensitivity of your loudspeaker, room size, and listening preference. The Wadia 921 Mono Decoding Computers come shipped from the factory with the output level set at 2 volts RMS. For instruction on how to configure the output voltage see Output Level Settings on page 13.

Operation

The Wadia 931 Digital Controller acts as the user-interface for the entire Wadia series 9 Decoding Computer System and uses remote commands and operations that are similar to other Wadia products. For a full list of instructions, refer to Operations on page 16.
