FEATURES

The Bryston BUC-1 is a state of the art USB digital-

to-digital converter with a USB input and three 

different digital outputs; BNC, Co-axial & 3 pin 

XLR(male). The BUC-1 supplies clocking signals to 

the USB source device (e.g. personal computer) to 

ensure a proper synchronized data stream 

Features of the BUC-1: 

• USB Audio Class 2 input (192KHz/24Bit asynchronous)

• USB drivers supplied on flash memory (thumb drive)

• Linear power supply

• Sample rates: 44.1KHz, 48KHz, 88.2KHz, 96KHz, 

176.4KHz, 192KHz 

• Transformer coupled SPDIF and AES/EBU Digital outputs.

• SPDIF Output (via CoAxial RCA/phono jack and BNC               

connector)

• Remote On/Off Control Trigger input, 12 Volt 

• Compatible with CD Drives, Sound Cards, Computers, 

Music Servers.

• Cosmetically matches C-Series BP26, MPS2, etc

POWER CONSIDERATIONS

The BUC-1 has a three prong grounded IEC 60320 

power inlet.  Make sure that the voltage source you 

plug an interconnecting line cord to is the same as 

that stated on the “data plate” label. 

Also, you can reduce the possibility of local ground 

loops which could cause hum or noise in the system 

by plugging its line cord into the same wall outlet 

next to the power amp, pre-amp and other equip-

ment in your system.

Besides the front panel push-on/push-off power 

switch, there is also a remote trigger (ON/OFF) 

connector (a 2 conductor mini 3.5mm phone jack) 

which when supplied with 12v @ 50mA or greater 

will turn on the BUC-1).

A green LED located above the front panel power 

switch will light when the unit is powered on.

INTERNAL FUSE

The BUC-1 contains a single fuse located inside the 

unit. IF it should become necessary to replace this 

fuse we recommend that you seek the assistance of 

qualified service personnel. 

The fuse is a 5x20mm glass 

type located at the rear 

of the unit near the power 

inlet. 

To remove the top cover to access the internal fuse 

a Torx-8 screwdriver is required. Remove all exter-

nal screws secruing the top cover and slide the top 

cover towards the rear of the unit by approximately 

1/4 inch before lifting it off the unit.  After re-

placing the fuse, replace and secure the top cover 

before reconnecting the power cord. 

CAUTION: 

Whenever the BUC-1 is connected to a 

power source hazardous live voltages are present in 

the BUC-1. It is essential, therefore, before opening 

up the BUC-1, that the power cord be disconnected 

from it entirely.  Replace a damaged or blown fuse 

with the type and value indicated on PCB or the 

fuse label on the PCB. 

FRONT PANEL:

POWER SWITCH: 

There are no switches or controls 

on the BUC-1 besides the pushbutton power ON/

OFF switch. If the front panel LED power indicator 

is on yet the power switch is in the out (Off) posi-

tion then the remote trigger is controlling the unit, 

keeping it turned ON.

 

SAMPLE RATE LED ARRAY:

 

Eight LEDs arranged in 2 

columns X 4 rows. Indi

cat

es the sample rate of the 

USB input and whether or not it is locked. 

REAR PANEL: 

BNC & PHONO OUTPUTS:

  

There are two SPDIF 

outputs intended for connectors using co-axial wire:
