Source components
The Cygnus DAC section has five digital audio inputs (AES/EBU, two coax, two Toslink optical). We
recommend you use the highest quality connection that your digital source device provides. In order of
preference, we recommend AES/EBU, then coax, then Toslink.
In the event of malfunction
Do not under any circumstances open the chassis of the Cygnus. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Opening the chassis can present a shock hazard even if the AC power is disconnected. Any alteration or
modification of the Cygnus’s internal parts or circuit will immediately void your warranty.
If your Cygnus does not function correctly, refer to the Troubleshooting section at the end of this manual. If
you are still unable to resolve the problem, contact your Constellation Audio dealer.
If any liquid is spilled on the digital file player/DAC, or if any metal object (such as a staple or a paper clip) is
inadvertently forced inside, immediately disconnect the AC power and contact your Constellation Audio
dealer.
Source device and output connections
1. AES/EBU digital input
Use this connection if your digital source device has an AES/EBU output, because it delivers the best possible
sound quality. This connection accepts PCM digital audio signals in resolution up to 32 bits/192 kilohertz.
This jack accommodates a standard XLR plug. To remove the XLR plug, push on the tab on the right side of
the jack (viewed from the rear) and pull the plug out.
