8. Advanced Notes
Proper Digital Audio cables should be used for S/PDIF and AES/EBU:
Avoid using standard
analog audio cables for digital signal. Even though they might look the same, they are not
designed for digital audio and performance will be compromised.
● AES/EBU use 110 Ω shielded twisted-pair digital cables.
● S/PDIF use 75 Ω coaxial (video) cables.
● WC uses 75 Ω BNC cables. And please do not exceed 6 meters in length.
As for Analog Cables, please use:
●
Standard high quality cables with XLR connectors;
●
Standard high quality cables with TRS connectors.

9. Ground Loop Hum and Noise
The design of Pure2 minimizes the possibility of ground loop hum and noise. However, we
recommend the use of short cables and balanced connections for all the audio signals of your
system. All power cables of the system should be connected to a dedicated outlet box or power
conditioner unit to avoid ground current noise affecting the audio signal path. It’s also advisable to
keep signal and power cables separate.

11. Calibration Mode
The Pure2 can be calibrated periodically in order to calibrate the accuracy of the internal clock by
connecting it to the 10M Atomic Clock. This is not something that necessarily needs to be done
very often, but if desired please follow these instructions:
●
Connect a 10M device to Pure2 via the dedicated 10M input;
●
Power on the 10M and wait until it reaches operating temperature;
● With the Pure2 powered up, press and hold the Power button (1)
●
Rotate the Rotary control to navigate to the ‘10M Calibration’ option.
● Confirm the selection by pressing the Rotary control (7)
●
The Calibration screen appears showing the Oven Temperature and AC Lock status.
