DirectStream DAC

A Power Plant is recommended for this task.

Should minor scratches occur in your top cover, simply purchase any type of high

quality automotive scratch removal polish such as Kit’s Scratch Out or McGuire’s

products. Car finish polish and wax can both be used on this surface for a beautiful

luster.

The top cover is a piano black painted surface over HDF (wood).

The front panel touch screen can be cleaned with Windex or similar glass cleaners.

To clean, spray the cleaner on a soft lint free towel and carefully clean. Do not spray

cleaner directly on the unit.
