Thank you for purchasing the Peachtree Audio decc02 amplifier.
While Peachtree Audio is anew company, the people behind the
design and marketing of this fine product have been
in
the Consumer
Electronics business over 30 years. The decc02 will process ahost
of digital audio sources from the Slim Devices Squeezebox,
to
the
Sonos ZP90,and many more including the digital output of your CD
player. The design of the decc02
is
an
attempt
to
marry audiophile
level amplification with the unique capabilities of external Digital to
Analog converters. The ability to process and play compressed and
uncompressed music files that have been downloaded to hard drives
makes the decc02 aunique product. The fact that it vastly improves
upon the performance of most computer-audio systems
is
abig plus;
and our original goal.
This manual is your guide to the functions and connections associ-
ated with the decc02. It's ability to mate with alarge number of digital
audio sources makes the decc02 aunique product.
We sincerely hope that the decc02 provides you with years of trou-
ble-free music listening, and that you will use it often. We will try
to
keep updates
on
our website: SignaIPathint.com.
You
may also want
to contact your dealer should you have any questions. While you're
thinking about
it,
please go to Peachtreeaudio.com and register your
decc02 for peace of mind.
Thanks again, and Happy Listening!

The decc02 remote control is straightforward, easy to use, and
designed for simplification. We suggest that after you manually
turn the decc02 "on", that standby
be
your default position when
the decc02
is
not
in
use. It will not damage the unit or wear the
parts out more quickly than being completely "off".

Make sure the on/off switch
on
the front panel
is
en-
gaged. Check to
be
sure
the
AC plug
is
connected. Check
the fuse.
Be sure you have the proper input selected. Make certain
the mute isn't engaged. Determine
if
your source is
on.
If
the input button
is
blinking then your digital signal
is
not
locked. Check your cable for connections and your
source
to
be
sure
it
is
on
and playing.
Please check the batteries by removing the cover
on
the
back
of
the remote.
It
is
an
infrared remote
so
it
needs a
clear line
of
sight to the sensor
on
the front panel
of
the
Decc02.

.:
The first thing
to
try
is
rebooting the music server
program (iTunes, Foobar,
WMP,
etc) and see
if
that works.
Then try turning the Decc02
off,
then re-boot your com-
puter. Then turn
the
Decc02 back
on.
If
the computer still
doesn't recognize the USB DAC repeat the process and
also unplug the USB cable from the computer and the
Decc02, then plug
it
back
in
right before re-booting.
These are computer devices, and sometimes you'll lose a
signal just
like
your printer or any other USB device.
You
should not have this problem often. We designed the
Decc02 to remain locked
on
the USB signal at
all
times, but
sometimes you
can
still get asignal dropout.
This can require some trial and error diagnostics.

If
you have music files stored
on
alaptop computer, hook
it
up to the Decc02
and
apair
of
speakers using battery pow-
er.
If
it
works properly with no noise then your computer
in
your office
is
introducing aground loop
in
to the system.
This
is
not uncommon; but the Decc02 has transformer
coupled digital inputs to minimize this problem.
If
problems
persist, please feel free to contact Signal Path.
Sometimes this
is
from static buildup but
it
should
not occur consistently over along period
of
time.
Contact your dealer or Signal Path
if
this persists.
You
must
use
awide bandwidth
75
ohm digital intercon-
nect
in
this application.
If
you use astandard audio RCA
cable the results will not
be
nearly
as
good. This
is
not an
unusual mistake
as
the two interconnects look identical but
sound different.
••
••••
Your iPod offers custom equalizations for headphone
use that aren't necessary with the Decc02 and agood
pair of speakers. Use a"flat" response and be sure the
iPod volume
is
set to match the other components
in
your system.
If
you find that you still need equaliza-
tion, then start
at
"flat" and make your settings from that
point.
