When hooking up an A/V unit, such as a VCR, make sure
to connect to all necessary terminals to the same name,
i.e. S-video or composite video as well as the 2xRCA analog
to all relevant sockets labelled “
VCR”
. The digital terminals also
correlate with certain video sockets (see
HINT
in next column)
Be sure to attach the dust covers when the OPTICAL terminals
are not being used. This prevents contamination by dust etc.
For accurate DTS-decoding, the DTS bitstream integrity must
never become compromised. Incorrect or poor quality cables
and connectors can corrupt the bitstream and degrade
performance.
In order to prevent digital errors and enjoy optimal
performance, please use dedicated, good quality digital
cables.
For S/PDIF: 70ohm digital co-axial or TosLink optical.
For AES/EBU: 110ohm balanced digital co-axial cable.
All digital audio signal input terminals accept the following
sample rate frequencies: 32 kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 96kHz
& 192kHz.
Quality of digital cables and connectors do have a bearing
on sound quality and performance. Keep cable lengths to
a minimum.
If your CD, LD, DVD, TV/satellite tuner or DAW etc, are
equipped with a either coaxial, optical or AES/EBU XLR
digital output terminals, you can take advantage of this
sonically superior connectivity by utilizing the corresponding
input sockets on the ADP61's rear panel
Digital audio signals are not prone to the same type of signal
loss and distortion factors as observed with typical analog
connections. Digital connections are especially recommended
when decoding multi-channel surround information, such as
Dolby Digital
and
DTS
from
LD
,
DVD
,
CD
players, and
other digital sources.
To make an optical digital connection between this unit and an
external unit, remove the cover from each optical terminal, and
then connect them by using a commercially available optical
fiber cable that conforms to EIAJ standards.Other cables might
not function correctly.
Even if you connect an audio/video unit to the OPTICAL (or
COAXIAL) terminal of this unit, you must keep the unit connec-
ted with the same named analog audio signal terminals of this
unit, because digital signal cannot be recorded by a tape deck
or VCR connected to this unit. You can switch the selection of
input signals between digital and analog easily.
