Inputs:
The DAC-100 provides for connecting up to four digital sources. They are selected in the
following order:
Input #1 - USB
Input #2 - SP/DIF coaxial/RCA
Input #3 – SP/DIF optical/Toslink
Input #4 – SP/DIF coaxial/RCA
To select the desired input, simply press the Input buttons labeled 1 – 4. Once pressed, the
selector button will illuminate. Please note: the last-selected input is memorized when
DAC-100 is turned off and will become the active Input when the unit is turned back ON.
Volume Control:
The volume knob is a one-turn control. Pressing in on the knob turns the DAC-100 ON and
OFF (OFF = standby). The volume at turn-on will be determined by the knob position. Please
note: gain has been set to achieve the best possible resolution with headphones within the
recommended impedance ranges. In most cases, you will find that the optimum control
setting falls somewhere between the 12 o’clock and 5 o’clock positions.
LED Indicators:
A stable and fully illuminated LED indicates the sample rate.
Blue = multiples of 48kHz
White = multiples of 44.1kHz
A blinking LED indicates that the output is muted.
When the six LEDs light sequentially in a clockwise pattern, the digital signal is not standard
PCM format. Rather, while the DAC-100 has locked onto the signal, it may be a DTS signal
(such as from a Blu-ray player) or some format using a non-standard sample rate (such as
38.8kHz).
No LED indicates that the unit is OFF or in standby mode.
Using the Remote Control:
The DAC-100 comes with a simple remote control with the following buttons:
On
Off
Input – cycles through Input 1 to 4.
Volume +
Volume -
Mute
When using the Remote Control to change the volume, please note: the knob on the front
panel is not motorized and therefore will not turn. However, moving the front panel knob
will immediately change the volume to that knob position.
