MC-BUS

MC-BUS operation 

Connecting the MC-BUS sockets 

c

 of the 

DAC XP Signature

 

in an MC-BUS system provides unified system power control. 

With MC-BUS connections established the power function 

of all connected Cyrus components may be controlled from 

the 

DAC XP Signature

 front panel or remote control. Refer 

to  the  following  table  for  Cyrus  components  that  will  be 

activated by the 

DAC XP Signature

 when the inputs have 

been named as listed -

Input name Power on response

cd

CD players, power amplifiers

TuNeR

Tuners, power amplifiers

AV

DVD players, power amplifiers

cyRus AV

DVD  players,  surround  decoders,  power 

amplifiers

dVd

DVD players, power amplifiers

Follow  the  instructions  in  section  ‘Setting  up  the 

DAC  XP 

Signature

’ to set the listed input names.

All connected components will also set to Standby when the 

DAC XP Signature

 is set to Standby.

MC-BUS connection

An MC-BUS loop is established by connecting single phono 

cables from the MC-BUS output of one unit to the MC-BUS 

input of another. Complete the loop by returning the MC-

BUS output of the final component to the MC-BUS input of 

the first. The diagram shows an example of MC-BUS wiring 

for a Cyrus 

DAC XP Signature

 with a CD player, tuner and 

power amplifier.

External Power Supply - PSX-R/PSX-R

2

 

The PsX-R is a unique dc power supply that will upgrade 

the sonic performance of compatible products in the Cyrus 

range.  The  PsX-R

2

  is  a  performance  upgraded  version  of 

the PSX-R. Both of these power supplies are compatible for 

connection to the 

DAC XP Signature

.

The following text refers to the use of the PSX-R, but applies 

also to the PsX-R

2

.

To connect a PSX-R, disconnect both components from the 

mains, then plug the connector on the umbilical cord of the 

PSX-R into the Multi-Pole socket on the back panel. You will 

need a mains supply for both units.
NOTE: Connection of a PSX-R is detected automatically, so 

no internal adjustments are required.

How it works

When a PSX-R is connected to a Cyrus product, the power 

feeds to the internal circuitry are split two ways with the  

clean,  stable  power  source  of  the  PSX-R  feeding  sensitive 

circuit  sections  while  other  requirements  are  supplied 

internally. This ensures complete isolation of control circuits 

and  sensitive  analogue  sections  reducing  AC  mains-borne 

noise and power supply ripple. 

Connecting to the AC Mains Supply

Connect the socket on the AC Power cable to the Power inlet 

1@

 on the rear panel. Now connect the cable to a suitable AC 

power point. 

NOTE:  The  means  to  disconnect  this  product  from  the 

mains supply is the mains plug. Ensure that the mains plug 

is accessible at all times.
