Hooking Up Your Sonica

Your Sonica has an 1/8” mini jack.This is an “analog” audio output that you can connect to your powered speakers.You may also connect this output to the stereo analog inputs of a home stereo or surround receiver.

The Sonica also has a standard optical connector. This is a “digital” audio output that that will transmit either a stereo digital audio signal or a multi- channel “surround sound” encoded digital audio signal. You may connect the Sonica’s digital output to the digital inputs of a home theater system, stereo receiver with a digital input, surround speakers with a digital input, MiniDisc recorder, or any device that has an optical digital audio input.

NOTE: When playing a digitally encoded surround sound signal from your Sonica (that is not decoded within your computer), you should listen only to the Sonica’s digital output. Listening to the Sonica analog output while playing a digital surround signal will give undesirable results.

Lastly, your Sonica has a USB connector for a standard USB cable.You may plug the “computer end” of the cable into your computer’s USB port. When you connect your Sonica for use with your computer (or during the driver software installation), simply plug the “device end” of the USB cable into your Sonica.These will be easily identifiable by their size and shape.
