Clock setting
CLK>***
You can set the synchronization with an external clock or clock out-
put to a Super Audio CD transport or other audio source device that
is being synchronized.
By default, the setting is OFF.
o
Set this to OFF when connected to a source device that does not
support clock synchronization.
OFF
Clock synchronization is not used and the master clock used to follow
the input digital signal is generated by the PLL circuit.
Operation following clock over a wide range is possible.
OUT44
44.1 kHz is output from the CLOCK SYNC OUT connector.
OUT88
88.2 kHz is output from the CLOCK SYNC OUT connector.
OUT176
176.4 kHz is output from the CLOCK SYNC OUT connector.
OUT48
48 kHz is output from the CLOCK SYNC OUT connector.
OUT96
96 kHz is output from the CLOCK SYNC OUT connector.
OUT192
192 kHz is output from the CLOCK SYNC OUT connector.
OUT22M
22.5792 MHz is output from the CLOCK SYNC OUT connector.
OUT24M
24.576 MHz is output from the CLOCK SYNC OUT connector.
o
You can synchronize an audio source device to this unit using its
high-precision crystal oscillator as a master clock by connecting
that device’s clock input connector to this unit’s CLOCK SYNC OUT
connector.
o
The audio source device must be connected to this unit’s CLOCK
SYNC OUT connector and set to receive clock synchronization.
IN
In this mode, this unit can receive a clock signal through its CLOCK
SYNC IN connector and operate with clock synchronization.
o
The audio source device must also be connected to the clock
generator or be connected to this unit’s CLOCK SYNC OUT con-
nector and set to receive clock synchronization.
o
The clock frequencies that can be input are 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4
and 192 kHz as well as 10 MHz. The input audio signal and the
input clock signal must be synchronized.
MCK IN
In this mode, this unit can receive a master clock signal through its
CLOCK SYNC IN connector from a clock generator and operate with
clock synchronization. The master clock input can be 22.5792 MHz
(512 × 44.1 kHz) or 24.576 MHz (512 × 48 kHz).
When 22.5792 MHz is input, the sampling frequencies of the input
audio signals can be 44.1, 88.2, 176.4 or 352.8 kHz.
When 24.576 MHz is input, the sampling frequencies of the input
audio signals can be 48, 96, 192 or 384 kHz.
o
The audio source device must also be connected to the clock
generator or be connected to this unit’s CLOCK SYNC OUT con-
nector and set to receive clock synchronization.
V
Be aware that during music playback, if the clock gen-
erator is turned off or the clock sync connection is broken,
causing the clock signal to stop, a loud noise could be
emitted from the speakers.
MCK10M
In this mode, the unit can receive a 10MHz clock signal through its
10MHz IN connector from a clock generator and operate with clock
synchronization using that signal. This mode can only be selected
when using ES-LINK input.
You must also set the P1 to MCK10M and connect it using ES-LINK.
During CD playback, the input 10MHz signal will be used directly
without using the PLL circuit as the master clock for this unit. During
SACD playback, the internal 22.5792 MHz signal will be synchronized
to the input 10MHz signal and used for operation.
