Setting up the absolute
Connecting the absolute is straightforward.
The back panel has three inputs, two are
COAX (RCA & BNC) for SPdIF and one is USB.
The absolute is a fully balanced device
throughout and output is offered in
balanced XLR or single-ended. The device
has its own output control functionality; it
is therefore possible to drive your power
amplifier(s) directly from the absolute
using this functionality. If you do not have
any analogue sources, direct driving your
amplification may be a way to simplify
your system. As the Absolute is a balanced
design, we recommend you use the
balanced output to direct drive your
amplification as it is less likely to transmit
noise. From a sonic point of view, however, it
is a matter of taste!
Important
On power up the absolute defaults to -0 dB FS volume output. This means that the output is FULL
VOLUME. IF you are playing direct (without pre-amp) and have selected variable volume output
(from the General settings menu as explained in the following sections), ALWAYS turn the output
volume to the lowest level – i.e. the highest “- dB” number – before switching on your amplification.
