Technically speaking,
STEEP
means steep filtering at the end of the band with a flat amplitude
frequency response but strong phase shift.
SMOOTH
, on the other hand, filters less steeply
causing a small amplitude drop before the end of the band, but a smaller phase shift. The
selected filter setting is only valid for the current input and remains stored even after the unit is
switched off. It can be changed at any time by pressing the
FILTER
key (5) again.

USB B digital input
If a digital signal from a computer (PC or Mac) is connected to the USB B digital input of your
Media Player (22), you can choose between two different modes (
LOW
RES
or
HIGH
RES
) by
pressing the
PROG
button (4).
LOW
RES
can be used to play back a digital input signal with a sample rate of up to 96kHz
without the need for an additional audio driver on your Windows PC or Mac.
HIGH
RES
can be used to play back a digital input signal with a sample rate of up to 384kHz/24
Bit (PCM) without the need to install an audio driver on your Mac. PC systems with Windows
on the other hand require an additional driver, which is available for free download in the
download area at
www.avm.audio
.
When a digital signal is applied, the currently active data format (
PCM
or
DSD
) is shown in the
lower left area of the display next to the
sample rate
.
Please note that for playback of
DSD64
and
DSD128
the
HIGH
RES
setting is always required.
