personal computer running either Microsoft Windows or Apple Mac OS X operating
systems. Some builds of Linux are also suitable.

Always use a high quality USB connection cable certified as USB Hi-
Speed. USB cable connections longer than 3m may result in inconsistent audio

DAB Aerial Input
The One has a 50Ω F-type screw connection aerial for DAB and FM signals. A
temporary aerial is supplied in the box. Once connected, extend the aerial and
move it around until the best reception is achieved.
For continued use, we strongly recommend using an outdoor aerial.

Digital inputs
S/P DIF Co-axial
– Use a high quality 75 ohm digital RCA Phono interconnect cable
(not one designed for normal audio use). This input is suitable for 16-24 bit content
up to 192kHz.
Toslink Optical
– Use a high quality TOSLINK fibre optic interconnect cable
designed specifically for audio use. This input is suitable for 16-24 bit content up to
96kHz (Toslink is not recommened at 192kHz sampling rates).
Note:
To obtain the best results from your system we recommend using only high
quality Cambridge Audio interconnects. This will ensure that you hear your system
as we designed it. Please ask your dealer for details.

Speaker terminals
These terminal connectors can be pulled out to allow connection of banana plugs.
Connect the wires from your left channel loudspeaker to the Left + & - terminals,
and the wires from the right channel loudspeaker to the Right + & - terminals.
Care should be taken to ensure no stray strands of wire short the speaker outputs
together. Please ensure that your speaker wires are properly inserted to provide a
good electrical connection. It is possible for the sound quality to be affected if the
connections are loose.
