Balanced Audio output: This is a higher quality output which can reject noise and interference in the cable
when used with equipment with balanced inputs. XLR connectors should be wired as follows:
Pin 1 - Ground; Pin 2 - Hot (in-phase); Pin 3 - Cold (phase-inverted).
Coaxial digital output: The coaxial digital output allows you to connect an external DAC or a digital
recorder.
RCA AUDIO OUTPUT: Connect your amplifier (or any other suitable device such as powered speakers,
receiver, etc) to the RCA outputs of your CD430.

(Type B): The USB input allows a direct connection to a PC/MAC. Operation is fully independent
of your computer soundcard and operates whether your computer has a soundcard or not.
Coaxial digital output switch: Turn ON or turn OFF as required.
It is necessary to download a driver to your PC. This is only necessary for use with Windows - no download is
required if using a MAC.
The file can be downloaded from the YBA website -

When you have completed the download, connect the USB cable from the computer to the rear panel of the
CD430. The Windows 'Found new hardware' bubble will appear. The description will be Passion CD430.
After a few seconds you will receive a message 'Your new hardware is installed and ready to use'. Your PC's
previous audio output device should be temporarily disabled and the CD430 will become the default audio
device automatically. This can be checked in the Control Panel. Select Sounds and Audio Devices. In the
volume tab check Passion CD430.
If you wish to disconnect your CD430 and return to your soundcard, simply disconnect or switch off the
power on the front panel. If for some reason your PC fails to disable the CD430, you can manually do this in
the Hardware Device Manager.
