DAC-20 Operation

This section provides instructions for using the gain controls, aligning
outputs, and adjusting the headphone monitor.

Using the Gain Controls

For setting left and right output levels, each output has its own level
adjustment on the front panel. Outputs are factory-set for +4 dBu at -
20 dBFS. Other levels can be set by using the following alignment
procedure:

To align the left and right analog outputs:

Connect a reference digital tone generator to the DAC-20’s

AES IN

connector.

Connect analog VU meters to the

LEFT OUT

and

RIGHT

OUT

connectors.

Turn on the digital reference tone, and while metering the
analog output levels, adjust the associated

and

trimmers

for the desired output level.

Using the Headphone Monitor

The analog outputs may be monitored with a pair of stereo headphones
plugged into the headphone jack. Best results are obtained with a

headphone impedance of 20–50

Ω

. Use the associated stereo

VOLUME

control to set a comfortable listening level.
