LCD display and Modulometer backlight intensity switch, pushed up will increase 
the intensity, down will reduce it, there are 7 intensity levels. 
 

Nagra Modulometer indicates the digital input level in dBFS (Full Scale) of the 
currently selected input. 0 dB being the maximum level. The black needle 
corresponds to the signal on the left channel and the red needle to that of the 
right channel. 
 

LCD Display. 
 

Controller knob to select the digital input and the phase inversion mode. 
 

Front rotary selector. 
 

IR window and remote control LED. 
 

 

 

When  turned  ON,  the  CLASSIC  DAC  will  go  through  a  short  preheating  sequence 
(around 15s). This is to optimize the warming-up of components. This will allow your 
CLASSIC DAC to offer excellent performance for a longer period, since the components 
are managed gently. «HEATING» appears on the display during this sequence. 
 
 
Note: In case of an accidental return to the OFF position of the front rotary selector for 
less than 1 second, the preheating is not reapplied.
