DIGITAL IN
Inputs for digital source devices with optical, co-axial (RCA / BNC) or AES-EBU
digital outputs.
At its optical (Dig 1 und Dig 2) and RCA (Dig 3) digital inputs the
MP 3000 HV
accepts digital stereo signals (S/P-DIF signals) with sampling rates from 32kHz
up to 96 kHz.
At the BNC and AES-EBU inputs (Dig 4 … Dig 6) sampling rates in the range
32 to 192 kHz are supported.
If digital audio signals with sampling rates above 96 kHz from a source with
RCA output shall be converted, these signals can be connected to one of the
BNC inputs with the help of the RCA to BNC adapter from the
MP 3000 HV
accessories.
DIGITAL OUT
Digital co-axial output for connection to an external digital/analogue converter
with an co-axial cable.
It is not always possible to produce a digital version for all media, as in some
cases the original contains copy protection measures which prevent this.
FD 100 REMOTE ANT
Socket for connecting the aerial of the
FD100
remote control handset.
RADIO ANT
The
MP 3000 HV
features a 75
Ω
aerial input
FM ANT
, which is suitable both
for a normal domestic aerial and a cable connection. For first-class reception
quality a high-performance, professionally installed aerial system is
indispensable.
USB DAC
Socket for connecting a PC or MAC computer.
At this input the
MP 3000 HV
accepts digital stereo signals with sampling rates
of 44.1 to 192 kHz (USB 1 transfer max. 96 kHz).
If the
MP 3000 HV
is connected to a PC or MAC computer, and is required to
convert audio files with a sampling frequency of more than 96 KHz (max. 192
kHz), then you must first install the appropriate driver on the computer (see
section entitled ‘
USB DAC operation in detail
’); the
MP 3000 HV
must also be
switched over to USB 2 (see section entitled ‘
System settings
’).
Mains input
To avoid any coupling of unwanted noise signals from the digital power supply
to the analog power supply of the MP 3000 HV, the digital and analogue power
supplies are located in separate shielded compartments on the left and right
sides of the device. For best possible separation the power supplies have their
own separate power supply sockets.
Always connect
both
mains sockets to the mains supply when operating the
MP 3000 HV
.
Digital power supply
The mains lead for the digital power supply is plugged into this socket.
Analogue power supply
The mains lead for the analogue power supply is plugged into this socket.
For correct connections refer to the sections
'Installation and wiring'
and
'Safety notes'
.
