Connecting your EINSTEIN The Source Ultimate
Prior to disc playback, please make sure the unit is connected properly to your
amplifier via either the RCA or XLR connectors located at the back of the unit. If
possible connect a ground cable between the disc player and your amplifier’s
ground pin. In case you are using balanced XLR connectors, please note the fol-
lowing pin layout:
Pin 1 – Ground
Pin 2 - + (positive)
Pin 3 - - (negative)
If you plan on using
The Source Ultimate
as a digital source only, you may connect
your outboard D/A converter via a 75Ohm digital cable on the S/PDIF output at
the back of the unit

mum sound and operating temperature within approximately 30 minutes of op-
eration.

drive spindle. Next, make sure that you place the supplied disc puck properly on
top, carefully observing that it sits properly on top of the spindle. Pay attention not
to accidentally nick or damage the top of the stainless steel chassis due the mag-
netic effect of the puck.
