    CONNECTING A DIGIT AL SOURCE There ar e four digital inputs to the DSP and D/A Converter section of the 1012. Three inputs are the AES/EBU style. Because of the balanced nature of these connections, it is the preferr ed method of connection and should be used whenever available. W ith the 1012, one DABL digital adapter is supplied and may be plugge[...]

  • Pagina 11

    POLARITY Please note that the 1012 DAC Pr eamplifier conforms to the standar d of pin 2 as the high or hot pin for all analog balanced inputs and outputs. Because input and output polarities are handled through pr ogramming setups and the r emote contr ol, no concern for polarity is needed while connecting sour ces. Digital connectors have no polar[...]

    CONNECTING AN UNBALANCED ANALOG SOURCE Although the inputs are all of the 3 pin type, an unbalanced source is easily accommodated by using a special cable. This cable has an RCA phono type connector on the source end and a 3 pin connector for going to an input on the 1012 DAC Pr eamplifier . The minus input (pin 3) should be wired to gr ound only a[...]

    POLARITY NOTE: Often polarity is mistakenly called phase. As phase indicates any angle between two channels from 0 to 360 degrees, the correct term of polarity is preferr ed to indicate the 180º phase change, or inversion, available in the 1012 DAC Preamplifier . By using the remote control, the polarity of both channels may be changed simultaneou[...]
