5. Connecting and Powering the Unit
WARNING: All connections between the
Evo DAC 3
and other equipment must be
made when all units are turned off and completely powered down or unplugged.
Failing to do so may cause damage to the
Evo DAC 3
and/or other units.
Please refer to chapter 3, “Back Panel”.
Connect the digital sources (CD/SACD/DVD player, satellite receiver, DAB receiver) to the
inputs (Figure 2, 10-11). The Bluetooth
®
connection will be done after powering the unit.
Connect your streamer or any other I

S input (Figure
2, 12).
Connect your computer to the
Evo DAC 3
USB input (Figure 2, 13).
Connect either
Evo DAC 3
balanced or single-ended outputs to a pair of inputs on an
integrated amplifier or preamplifier (Figure 2, 8-9).
Connect the plug from the stock wall wart or from the
Evo Supply 3
to the
Evo DAC 3
power
input (Figure 2, 14).
Connect the wall wart or the
Evo Supply 3
to a mains outlet. The former will automatically
accept any voltage from 90V
AC
to 265V
AC
.
Switch the
Evo DAC 3
on by pushing the left front panel button (Figure 1, 2). If you’re using
the
Evo Supply 3
, you have to activate the output used to power the
Evo DAC 3
first.
NOTE: as the
Evo DAC 3
is provided with a volume control, it is possible to use it as
a preamplifier. In this case, it is a good habit to switch the power amplifier on after
switching the
Evo DAC 3
on, and to switch the power amplifier off before switching
the
Evo DAC 3
off.
NOTE: it is possible to use a dedicated low noise power supply in place of the wall
wart, to increase the sonic performance Manunta by M2Tech provides a device for
this purpose, the
Evo Supply 3
. M2Tech’s
Van Der Graaf M
k
II
can also be used. Should
the user opt for use of power supply not provided by Manunta by M2Tech or
M2Tech, we reserve the right to void the
Evo DAC 3
warranty
