Quick Start Output volume knob sets the output volume with range from mute to max. This is factory default. The knob can be disabled with internal jumpers. Additionally internal precision 10 turn trimpots can be used to set the overall gain of the output. Refer to "Internal jumper settings" for details. Introduction to Stereo96 Series Converters Sample rate selection. Sets the desired sample rate. When used with external clock select FS closest matching that of supplied external wordclock.
Stereo96DAC internal trimpots and jumper assignments (remove top cover to access) Stereo96DAC internal trimpots and jumper assignments (remove top cover to access) Internal analog output jumpers: JP2, JP4 - insert front stereo potentiometer as the output XLR volume controldefault- used typically when power amp or powered speakers are connected to output. Turn it down for unbalanced consumer -10dBV sources.
Analog Output Alignment Typical Setup -Balanced Output 1. Turn the output pot all the way up or disable it. Stereo96 ADC is equipped with 2 XLR analog outputs. For best signal to noise performance it is recommended the signal destination has a typical kOhm impedance (1-20kOhm) input with standard +4dB line level balanced signal. Alternatively a more sensitive unbalanced signal destination can be used as described in subsequent paragraph.
Output driving unbalanced destination Stereo96 ADC is equipped with 2 XLR analog outputs. For best signal to noise performance it is recommended the signal destination has a typical kOhm impedance (1-20kOhm) input with standard +4dB line level balanced signal. It might be desirable to use a superior sounding amplifier equipped with unbalanced ins to an inferior one which has balanced inputs. The DAC can drive unbalanced inputs as easily as balanced ones.
Companion Stereo96 DAC Rack Mount Shelf The Stereo96 ADC is 1/3 rack space wide and 1U tall. Mytek provides a 1U rack mount shelf as accessory to mount up to 3 of 1/3 rack units. The units are attached to shelf with small screw connecting the shelf to bottom through a threaded hole on the bottom of the unit.
