Each input connector can have a different setting .
By default, the setting is OFF .
o
During ES-LINK input, only OFF or DSD can be selected .
o
This setting can be made for each input .
o
DSD signals cannot be upconverted .
o
Even if the upconverter is set, the upconverter might not be usable
depending on the input source sampling frequency conditions .
o
When USB input is selected and the input signal is 705 .6kHz or
768kHz PCM, settings other than DSD will be disabled .
OFF
Upconversion will not occur .
The original input signal will be sent as is directly to the D/A
converter .
2Fs
The sampling frequency of the input source signal will be upcon-
verted by a factor of 2 from 32, 44 .1 or 48 kHz to 64, 88 .2 or 96 kHz .
4Fs
The sampling frequency of the input source signal will be upcon-
verted by a factor of 4 from 32, 44 .1 or 48 kHz (or 2 from 88 .2 or
96 kHz) to 128, 176 .4 or 192 kHz .
8Fs
The sampling frequency of the input source signal will be upcon-
verted by a factor of 8 from 32, 44 .1 or 48 kHz (or 4 from 88 .2 or
96 kHz or 2 from 176 .4 or 192 kHz) to 256, 352 .8 or 384 kHz .
DSD
The digital format of the signal will be converted to DSD .
DSD digital filter setting
DSD_F>***
This setting turns the digital filter for DSD input signals sent to the
D/A converter on or off .
By default, the setting is OFF .
o
This setting can be made for each input .
OFF
The 50kHz cutoff digital filter is not used .
o
“DSD DIRECT” appears on the display .
ON
The 50kHz cutoff digital filter is used .
o
Use this setting if modulation noise, for example, occurs when
set to OFF .
