Audio Connections
Transporter has a host of both digital and analog connections to choose from. Picking the one that’s right for you depends on how your current audio system is set up. For instance, if balanced inputs are available on your amplifier, preamplifier, or receiver, it’s usually better to use those rather than the unbalanced inputs.
Transporter also provides a set of digital input connections to allow other digital audio sources to use Transporter as a digital to analog converter. You can select from these inputs using the remote control or front panel controls.
Transporter has the following audio connections available:
Analog Outputs
•Unbalanced RCA connections (2Vrms/5.7Vpp, 100 ohms impedance, with selectable attenuation)
•Balanced XLR connectors (3Vrms/8.5Vpp, 100 ohms impedance, fixed attenuation)
Digital Outputs and Inputs
•TOSLINK optical connector (660nm wavelength,
•
•
•Balanced XLR connector (4.7Vpp into 110 ohms, AES/EBU encoding)
•Word clock input for use with an external word clock generator
Using Transporter as a Standalone DAC
You can use Transporter as a standalone
When not connected to SlimServer or SqueezeNetwork (you will see Transporter Setup on the top line of the display), use the remote control or knob to scroll to the digital input you’d like to use then press the right arrow button, the center of the knob or the PLAY button. That input will remain selected until you choose another or connect to SlimServer or SqueezeNetwork.
If Transporter is connected to SlimServer or SqueezeNetwork, scroll to the Digital Inputs menu, go right, then press PLAY to use the selected input.
