SUPERLINK consequently transmits all neccessary digital audio clock‐ and data‐signals separately.
The "Master‐Clock" is inside the DAC unit and located close to the dac section, so transportation loss
Jitter does not occour.
This interconnection deliveres the highest level of naturalism in sound quality and makes expensive
SPDIF interconnection cables obsolete.
The connection terminals on the rear panel of the CD transport as well as the DAC are marked as
followed: MCK, BCK, LRCK and DATA.
Before connecting any cable make sure both units are powered off and the AC‐line cable is
disconnected!
For each interconnection use a 75‐Ohm BNC cable and connect identically marked terminals only. The
included BNC cables have been tested for proper function and deliver an excellent sound quality.
In SUPERLINK the "Master‐Clock" is inside the DAC unlike when using any other operation mode the
"Master‐Clock" is within the CD transport. Due to this difference in operation the CD transport must
restart whenever changing the DAC input to SUPERLINK or from SUPERLINK. Automatically the CD
transport will restart and after reading the TOC remain idle. for starting playback PLAY must be pressed.
SPDIF
SPDIF (Sony/Philips‐Digital InterFace) is the common standard for digital audio transmission. It is used
with 75‐Ohm BNC or RCA connections, optical connections as well as a professional AES/EBU 110‐
Ohm version.
USB
USB1.1 terminal for playing back any sound from a computer. There is no driver installation required and
the input works with all major operation systems. For Windows OS the use of a direct streaming driver
is recommended.
Use high grade, shielded USB‐2.0 cables without ferrite cores exclusively.

Interconnection Options
The keys without description relate to the
BDCD1.
Whenever that usable range of the remote control
gets smaller the batteries should be replaced with
new AAA type ones. Insert the batteries according
to the marking inside the battery holder.
Caution: Batteries may explode
when putting into fire!
Displace used batteries according
to you local recycling laws.
