Front panel  

 

Headphone connection 

Connect the headphones to the socket on the front panel (Jack 6,3mm). The rear outputs are not 
disconnected when headphones are in use.  

Volume 

Adjust the volume to the desired level, using the large knob on the right side of the front panel. 
 

Menu 

Use any button on the right side of the unit to enter Menu, then use buttons Up and Down to browse in 

Menu, button Right enters subpage or activate selected item, button Left return to previous page or step out 
of Menu. 
 

 

Display returns back to main page after 10s of inactivity. 

 
 
INPUT : Direct access to inputs. See separate chapter about inputs. 
 
UPSAMPLE :  
 

OFF: upsampling inactive 

 

Recommended for playing native sample rates. In such case is also recommended to disable cross 

fade and start/stop fade if available in player. 

 
 

MQA: only MQA data are upsampled  

 

ON :all data from digital inputs are upsampled to 384/352kHz 

 

Recommended settings for playing MQA and/or tracks with various sample rate  

 
RECLOCKING : is a technology which changes internal clock synchronization in the unit. Overall effect on 
jitter is insignificant, however in spectrum analysis of signal are visible changes mainly at higher frequency 
sampling rates (384/352 and above) which could affect listener experience. 

     
TUBE STAGE: OFF, ON (Tube stage needs heat up period after start of the unit - tube symbol is blinking) 
 
 
DIGITAL FILTER 

 

When playing MQA files, user´s filter setting is not active, MQA filter is always used. MQA filter is 
custom made for our DAC to ensure best possible MQA experience
