mode. Fixed mode is suitable for connection to other
equipment which offers a volume control. Variable
mode allows connection directly to power am
plifie
rs
or active speakers where the M6SRDAC provides the
volume control.
Choosing between these settings is done by using
the small switch
13
on the back panel.
When in variable, mode the output level can be
controled by either the volume knob on the front
panel
7
or the remote control.
Headphones
The M6SRDAC also includes a high quality headphone
am
plifie
r.
Connecting headphones to socket
6
will automatically
mute the main outputs. The volume control on the
front panel
7
or the remote control now adjust the
volume sent to the headphones.
Whilst headphones are connected the MUTE
indicator on the front panel will be lit to indicate the
main outputs are muted.
Note: This USB input has a high-speed serial data
processor, and by its nature, requires a very high
volume of USB bandwidth. It will
benefit
greatly
from being the only device connected on its USB
‘bus’. Sharing the same bus with other devices
could cause unwanted artifacts such as dropouts
or temporary loss of signal. This especially
includes the use of the unit on a USB hub/splitter
whether alongside other USB components or
not. A direct connection to the host computer
by shortest USB 2.0 lead possible is very much
recommended.
Note: When headphones are connected to
socket
6
and the back panel Fixed/Variable
output
13
is set to variable mode, the volume will
remain at the volume set by the volume control
if the headphones are removed.
For playing native DSD or running older Windows
operating systems is a driver installation required.
Driver is supplied on a CD in the packaging of the
device.
Any device that is compliant to the USB Audio Class
2.0 standard should also operate with the M6SR-
DAC. However Musical Fidelity are unable to provide
support for operation with anything other than the
system listed above.
CD, MP3, WAV, AAC/+, OGG, FLAC, and any other
audio file types played on suitable playback
software will now play through the unit.
