INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing the decco125! The original decco that Peachtree Audio launched
over a decade ago was a ground-breaking product that featured a USB input and built-in
DAC to facilitate audio streaming from a computer. The whole concept of “computer audio”
was cutting-edge at the time and other brands eventually followed Peachtree Audio’s lead
and DACs built into integrated ampliers became an industry standard over time.
The new decco takes the integrated amplier concept another step further and addresses
the most critical component in a Hi-Fi system; the speaker. The amplier inside the decco
is designed to drive virtually any pair of traditional speakers, but when it is paired with
the optional duet speakers, it becomes a 3-way, fully-active, Hi-Fi system that easily
outperforms much larger and more expensive systems.
A portion of the decco rear panel is modular. As shipped from Peachtree, the rear panel
is congured to drive a pair of traditional loudspeakers. When the optional duet speakers
are added, the rear panel is replaced with a new one that congures the decco to drive
the speakers in a fully active conguration including individually amplied drivers, active
crossovers and equalization.
The new decco carries on the Peachtree tradition of form following function. The front
panel is machined out of a single piece of aluminum and designed to emulate an old car
radio with a single row of buttons and a volume knob. Simply select the desired input and
adjust the volume to easily enjoy all of your music! The chassis is wrapped in a beautiful
real-wood cabinet that has been a calling card of Peachtree Audio since the original decco
was launched over a decade ago.
The new decco is designed to handle a wide range of inputs. There is a USB input for a
computer along with an optical input for another digital audio source like a streamer or
a disc player. There are two analog inputs as well. One for a turntable (with a moving
magnet cartridge) and a second for a cassette deck or other “line-level” analog source
device. The decco also includes an optional wireless input to facilitate audio streaming
from the Internet. On the front panel, there is a headphone output capable of driving a
wide range of headphones to enjoy music without disturbing others.
Please take the time to read this manual to get familiar with the decco125 and
visit www.peachtreeaudio.com to register your purchase. We will extend the standard
warranty if you do and your information will not be shared with anyone. We will only
contact you with news that is relevant to your decco purchase! If you have additional
questions or feedback, please contact your Peachtree dealer or us directly.
Thank you again for choosing Peachtree Audio. We sincerely hope that you love your
decco and that it brings you many years of enjoyment. It represents a new standard for
value, exibility and innovation in the market. Happy listening!
- Your friends at Peachtree Audio

BAC INPUT: For connection to a 100-240VAC 50/60Hz AC outlet using the included
power cord.
CANT-1 & 2: RF antenna inputs for use with wireless input equipped units. Connect both
antennas if the decco is or will be located in a spot where the wireless network signal
strength is weaker. Check this by placing a mobile device in the spot the decco is or
will be located and reading the wireless network signal strength. If all “bars” are lit, you
shouldn’t need to utilize the antennas. If fewer “bars” are lit, utilized the antennas to
ensure optimal wireless performance.
DSERVICE ONLY: This is NOT a USB audio input! Reserved for service use.
EUSB-B INPUT: Accepts digital audio input up to 24-bit/96kHz PCM from a computer.
FGROUND: Accepts the ground connection from a phonograph/turntable.
GOPTICAL INPUT: Accepts S/PDIF digital audio input from an optical (Toslink style)
output up to 96kHz. Optical digital audio outputs are common on digital audio sources
including; streaming audio devices, disc players, cable boxes and HDTVs.
HAUX ANALOG INPUT (L) (R): Accepts line level input from devices with analog outputs.
If the device also has a digital audio output, it may provide better sound quality.
IPHONO INPUT (L) (R): Accepts input from a phonograph/turntable with a moving
magnet (MM) cartridge.
JPRE-OUT: Provides analog audio output to connect to a powered subwoofer or an
external power amplier. Note: the RIGHT and LEFT speaker outputs remain active
when the PRE OUT is used and both sets of outputs are automatically muted when the
mute function is engaged or when headphones are connected to the front panel. Note:
The PRE-OUT is not available when the decco is used with the optional Peachtree
Audio duet speaker system.
KRIGHT & LEFT SPEAKER OUTPUTS: Speaker binding post outputs that accept
banana style, spade or bare wire speaker cable terminations. The binding posts are
clearly marked RIGHT and LEFT with red (+) and black (-) for proper connections with
the speakers. Please check that all of the ends of the speaker cables are connected
with the correct polarity; positive-to-positive and negative-to-negative. Wiring positive-
to-negative or negative-to-positive should not cause any damage but it does alter
the phase and therefore the sound the speakers create. Note: the RIGHT and LEFT
speaker outputs are automatically muted when the mute function is engaged or when
headphones are connected to the front panel.
L Rear Panel Hand Screws (4): Hand screws provided for the installation of the rear
panel included with the optional Peachtree Audio duet speaker system. Please do not
remove these screws unless you are installing this option.
