Select “Cayin iDAC-6” or “XMOS XS1” as audio output device in your 

computer playback software 

 

 

Basic Operation 

 

1.  Please make sure the AC Voltage Selector is setup correctly for your local power 

supply voltage.    When selector is set at “230” (as displayed on the selector), the 

DAC is set to work with 220V-240V power supply voltage.    When selector is set 
at “115” (as displayed on the selector), the DAC is set to work with 110V-120V 

power supply voltage.     

  Turn on the DAC by press down the Power ON/OFF button on the front 

panel, the Power Indicator will start to flash and the display screen will light 

up 

  The initialization process will take around 15 second, the Power indicator will 

stop flashing and become always on, and the DAC is ready for playback. 

Note: Please do not remove any audio cable when the DAC is in normal 

operation, this might cause damage to the amplifier or other associated 

equipment. 

2.  Source Selection 

  Select input source, click the SOURCE button repeatedly to cycle through 

the following options: USB AUDIO, OPTICAL, COAXIAL, and AES/EBU

 

  The DAC will remember the previous setting even when the device is power 

off, and will resume to the previous selected source when power up again. 

3.  Using AES/EBU, coaxial and Optical input 

  After the digital cables are connected, you can select AES/EBU, COAXIAL 

and OPTICAL by click the SOURCE button repeatedly to select your 

desirable connection. 

  Once the DAC can lock into a digital connection, the screen will display the 

bit rate and sampling frequency for your reference.   

4.  Using USB decoding 

  Before you proceed with USB decoding, please confirm again that 

appropriate drive has been installed in your computer (if needed), otherwise 

USB decoding will not be functional. 

  Connect the USB port of the DAC to the USB port of a computer with a USB 

cable (provided in the product package), Click the SOURCE button 

repeatedly until USB AUDIO is selected. 

  Once the DAC can lock into the USB connection, the screen will display the
