Listening Tips
Operating Care
For maximum signal fidelity, set the DAC to
at least 24-bit audio and adjust digital vol-
ume slightly below 100% at your computer.
Only control volume from your amplifier.
Listen safely to conserve your hearing:

Set sampling rate to the highest integer
multiple of your music collection. For
example, use 176.4kHz for a collection
of 44.1k or 88.2k or 176.4kHz files. Use
192kHz for a collection of 48k or 96k or
192k audio files. Alternatively, you may
install the optional XMOS drivers in Win10
for bitperfect ASIO playback.
EL DAC II+ automatically selects
appropriate sampling rate in coaxial or
optical modes.
Use gentle force when touching the mode
button, and when inserting or removing
cables.
To ensure an optimal noise floor,
always position audio equipment as far
away as possible from wireless devices.
