Inputs & Connections
Cautionary note:
Please connect your interconnects first before connecting the mains power
cable.
•
Power requirements:
Check if the product is made conform the power requirements of your
area. On the back side of the product there is a marker for the specific mains voltage.
•
Optical input:
Use an optical (Toslink) cable to use the optical input. The optical input can be
used for sampling rates up to 96 kHz.
•
Coaxial inputs:
A 75 Ohm coaxial cable should be used to connect the DAC to other digital
equipment. To avoid ground loops both inputs have a galvanic isolation. The coaxial input
can handle a maximum sample rate of 192 kHz. Coaxial 1 is a BNC connector. When using
RCA type connectors please use the BNC to RCA adapter.
•
AES/EBU digital input:
When using the AES /EBU digital input a special 110 Ohms XLR cable
should be used. The AES/EBU interface has a galvanic isolation and can handle a maximum
sampling rate of 192 kHz.
•
USB input:
Use an USB cable to connect the DAC to your computer. Only when using a
Windows operating system, you should install special drivers. In case of Linux or MAC no
additional drivers are required. The USB input can handle sampling rates up to 384 kHz.
•
RCA outputs:
Standard interlinks can be used to connect the DAC to your amplifier. The
"PAVANE" is designed conform the "Red book standard" so the maximum output will be 2
Volts RMS or 5.7 Volts peak to peak. Your (pre)amplifier should handle this output level.
