WORD DAC LAYER (normal display) < If you leave the unit idle for 10 seconds, the setting mode will be cancelled. 2 Use the SKIP buttons (.//) to select the options within the menu item. 3 Individual menu functions are described on pages 17-18. Repeatedly press the MODE button until the display returns normal (or leave the unit idle for 10 seconds) to exit the setup mode. Pressing the STOP button also finishes the setup mode. < Switching off the power without exiting the setup mode may cause problems. Do not turn the unit off. < Settings are stored even when power is turned off and the unit is unplugged. If left unplugged for an extended period, the settings may be lost. Setting the Word sync, DAC, priority playback area, and i.LINK output (1) Available menu item and options WORD (Word sync) Use this feature to lock your entire system to a single sync signal (clock) by connecting this unit to the Esoteric G-0s or similar device that outputs a sync signal. “ON” or “OFF” are available. < This unit is ready for the clocks up to 176.4 kHz and switches itself depending on an incoming signal. < Make connections to the WORD SYNC terminal before turning on the unit. < When the unit is synchronizing to the sync signal, the ring surrounding the MODE button flashes. When it is locked, the button lights. < If no valid sync signal is received, the display shows “No Word!” or “Wrd Unlck!”. DAC (D/A converter) This unit is equipped with the following DA converters: • DSD DAC for DSD signals (AD1955 from Analog Devices, Inc.) • 1-bit DAC for PCM signals (AD1955 from Analog Devices, Inc.) • Multi-bit DAC for PCM signals (PCM1704 from Burr-Brown) This setting allows you to determine which DAC will be selected for playback. REF. (Reference) The unit automatically selects the proper DAC for the disc currently loaded. The selection depends on the Analog Out (see page 21). M.bit (Multi-bit) Use the Multi-bit DAC. DSD signals from Super Audio CDs are converted to PCM signals. The MULTI-BIT indicator lights during playback. 1 bit Use the 1-bit DAC. DSD signals from Super Audio CDs are converted to PCM signals. The 1-BIT indicator lights during playback. DSD Use the DSD DAC. PCM signals from CDs are converted to DSD signals (1 bit, 64 fs). The DSD indicator lights during playback. < You can also use the left or right cursor button to change the DAC setting (either when playing back or stopped). ENGLISH (Continued on the next page.) 17 Setting the Word sync, DAC, priority playback area, and i.LINK output (2) Setting the Word sync, DAC, priority playback area, and i.LINK output (2) LAYER (priority playback area) There are two types of Super Audio CDs, regular ones that contain 2-channel stereo and multi-channel stereo, and hybrid discs (two-layer discs) that contain Super Audio CD and regular CD data. This setting allows you to determine which layer will be first selected for playback (the priority playback layer) with a hybrid Super Audio CD. SACD This mode gives priority to the Super Audio CD layer. The 2-channel layer is played when the Analog Out is set to “2ch”. The multi-channel layer is played when the Analog Out is set to “Multi ch”. CD This mode gives priority to the CD layer. < Selecting a layer that is not on the disc results in playback of the alternative layer that is found on the disc. < A change of playback layer using the PLAY AREA button is overridden by the LAYER setting when a different disc is loaded. i.LINK Used to select an i.LINK output setting. When using the i.LINK terminal, select “60958” or “PCM”, and set the Digital Out to “ON”. 60958 DSD signal is output during playback of a Super Audio CD. The digital signal in IEC60958 format is output during playback of a CD. PCM DSD signal is output during playback of a Super Audio CD. Linear PCM digital signal is output during playback of a CD. < Some amplifiers may regard this signal as DVD-Audio. OFF Select this when you don’t use the i.LINK (AUDIO) terminal. No signal is output from the i.LINK (AUDIO) terminal. < There is no difference between 60958 and PCM as far as Super Audio CD playback is concerned. < Set the Analog Out setting to “Multi ch” to output the surround sound from a Super Audio CD. When the Analog Out is set to “2ch”, the multi-channel sound is down mixed to 2 channels. < In case you experience any problem with the audio output, read the instructions of the connected component to check the adaptable format. < If the component connected via the i.LINK terminal is compatible with the flow rate control, the connected component will work in the flow rate control mode. Settings (introduction) Turn on the main unit.1 2 Press the SETUP button to enter the setup menu. “AudioSetup” appears on the front panel display. < Although it is possible to enter the setup menu while playback is continuing, not all menu functions will be available. Expand the number of available functions by pressing the STOP button. < Exit the setup menu by pressing SETUP once again. 3...
