WiFi, Ethernet for Lightning Streaming
The Lightning Streaming can be activated through Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection.
Please refer to page 14 for detailed instruction on how to setup POLARIS in your
home network.
!
USB Storage Input
The USB storage port can deliver 5V/500mA current to power USB drive. We sug-
gest you to use self-powered USB drive for better sound quality consideration. To
play music stored on the USB drive, you need to connect POLARIS to your home
network first, please refer to page 14 for instruction.
!
USB DAC Output
When using POLARIS as a Lightning streamer, you may connect POLARIS to a
USB DAC, making it as a digital streamer only. To use this function, you will need to
connect POLARIS to your home network first, please refer to page 14 for instruction.

AES/EBU, Coaxial and Toslink Digital Inputs
The AES/EBU, Coaxial and Toslink digital inputs are individually buffered. Maximum
sampling rate supported by these ports is 24 Bit / 192 KHz.
!
USB 2.0 High Speed Input
The USB 2.0 Input uses asynchronous transmission mode and is buffered by AU-
RALiC's ActiveUSB technology to further reduce jitter effects. The USB input sup-
ports PCM signals up to 32 Bit / 384KHz, DSD streams at 2.8224 MHz and 5.6448
MHz through DoP V1.1 protocol and DSD256 through Native DSD on Windows PC
with selected compatible playback software or through other Linux based streamer.
The specific driver is required for proper functioning under Windows PC system,
please refer to ‘To use POLARIS as standalone USB DAC’ on page 15.

Main Power Inlet Socket
We suggest you to use standalone power supply for the POLARIS to provide isola-
tion from other digital source components using switching power supply. The power
consumption of POLARIS is less than 30W, so a heavy gauge power cord is not rec-
ommended as the weight of the power cord connector may damage the power cord
socket on the back of the unit. Please double check the AC mains voltage on the
back of the unit before connecting to the power.
NEVER SHORT ANY OUTPUT OF POLARIS TO GROUND!
FAILED TO DO THAT WILL DAMANGE THE UNIT
PERMANENTLY AND WILL VOID FACTORY WARRANTY!
