Switching On
The mains power to the DAC XP Signature should normally
be left on unless left unattended for a long period when the
mains power at the wall socket should be switched off or
the product disconnected from the AC supply.
When power is applied, the STANDBY key
a
is used for power
control. The Standby light
b
shows red when the DAC XP
Signature is in Standby and green when operational.
Selecting an input
Inputs may be selected from the front panel INPUT SELECT
buttons
i
or with the remote control INPUT SELECT keys. As
a new input is selected the input name/number are displayed
briefly. The main display indication for input/volume can be
selected from the three options in the setup menu.
The factory default ‘small input’ display option will also
identify the sample rate of the selected source and indicate
‘Invalid Audio Format’ for program material which the
DAC
XP Signature will not decode (such as multi-channel digital
sound from DVD players or satellite receivers).
Volume and Balance
The level control
e
of the DAC XP Signature performs the
dual functions of volume and balance.
Volume
In normal mode the level control sets the volume in 1dB
steps. A bargraph and a numeric scale at the top of the
display window show the current volume setting. The
last used volume setting is stored when the unit is set to
standby.
If the volume is left at an abnormally high volume level before
entering standby, the level will be reduced automatically to
a safe level of –15dB for next use.
Balance
Press the balance control key
g
to change the mode of
the front panel rotary control
e
to set Left/Right Balance.
The volume display will also change to show a graphic and
numeric display of the balance setting.
Mute
Pressing the MuTe Key
h
will mute the volume to minimum
level without disturbing the existing volume setting. When
muted the display will show that volume is muted. Move
the volume knob up or press the Mute key to fade back up
to the original volume setting.
Programmable Input Sensitivity
You may find an audible difference in level when switching
from digital inputs to one of the two analogue inputs due
to the differing outputs of your source components. The
unique calibration memory of the DAC XP Signature can be
programmed to match the sensitivity of these inputs with
reference to the digital inputs. Input sensitivity settings are
made through the setup menu. Refer to the section ‘Setting
up the DAC XP Signature ’ for more details.
