There are 6 slots in the D1. A CONTROL board is always installed inside the D1, leaving space for 5 optional boards. One of these
slots is reserved for the SYNC_IO board. Note that optional boards MUST be installed by a qualified technician. Failure to do so will
void any warranty. Following table shows the typical recommended configurations for D1:

D1 recommended configurations (CONTROL board is included in all configurations and SYNC_IO board can be
added in any configuration)
1.3.1 Multi-channel support
True multi-channel SACD playback is achieved by means of optional boards. The Stereo versions of D1 are delivered with a single
DIGITAL_OUT board and/or a single ANALOG_OUT board configured for L/R channels. They can be extended to multi-channel by
simple addition of DIGITAL_OUT or ANALOG_OUT boards for the Ls/Rs and C/Sub channels. No other action is required as the D1
firmware will automatically sense the presence of the additional boards and enable true multi-channel reproduction.
When a D1 has multi-channel capability (either digital, analog or hybrid outputs), it will always select multi-channel DSD layer on
SACDs whenever available. User can then manually change to another available layer (stereo DSD and/or CD layer) from a given
disc.
