INTRODUCTION

THANK YOU!...

for choosing the Manley Laboratories REFERENCE 20 BIT DIGITAL TO ANALOGUE CONVERTER. Please read over this manual carefully as it contains information essential to proper operation of this unit.

The MANLEY DIGITAL TO ANALOGUE CONVERTER features completely dual- mono analogue sections and power supplies. The digital board features the only 20-BIT, 128x oversampling converter unit available today, custom made for us by ULTRAANALOG. The 128x oversampling rate at which the ULTRAANALOG operates eliminates the need for steep anti-alias filters, and eliminates differential non-linearity and harmonic distortion for low amplitude signals. The ULTRAANALOG AES-21 chip effectively removes incoming jitter from the digital inputs. This monolithic device contains 2 separate precision phase-locked loops

-the first is digital and removes higher frequency jitter, the second is designed to remove any remaining jitter. Unlike earlier AES / EBU / SPDIF interfaces that allowed only 16 or 18 bits through this device allows up to 24 bits through. The only digital processing used is the HDCD ® filter chip. Not only does it provide the path for HDCD ® recordings it is also the best performing digital filter available. For maximum fidelity and musical involvement the line amplifier is all tube differential input / totem output vacuum tube design with both balanced and unbalanced outputs available.

LOCATION & VENTILATION

The MANLEY DIGITAL TO ANALOGUE CONVERTER must be installed in a stable location with ample ventilation. It is recommended, if this unit is rack mounted, that you allow enough clearance on the top and bottom of the preamp such that a constant flow of air can flow through the ventilation slots.

WATER & MOISTURE

As with any electrical equipment, this unit should not be used near water or moisture. If liquid enters the unit, it must be immediately returned to your dealer for servicing.

The user should not attempt to service this unit beyond that described in the owner's manual. Refer all servicing to Manley Laboratories.
