1.
‘Filter Mode’
: Your streaming device has four built-in filter modes each
employing five digital filters optimized for corresponding sampling rates.
Developed using a combination of objective data models and subjective testing
these modes optimize sonic quality for varying music types and formats.
2.
‘Buffer Time’
: The Lightning platform saves input signals to system memory to
remove jitter then send it to DAC. A larger buffer time will add more latency
between input and output, but may be more stable with various music sources.
3.
‘HT Bypass’
: Home Theatre bypass mode. When enabled, the analog input signal
will bypass the preamp’s gain controls letting you use your DAC purely as a unity
gain preamp without having to worry about adjusting volume when watching
movies — the receiver’s own volume control takes over that function.
