I
USB-B INPUT: Accepts digital audio input up to 32-bit/384kHz PCM and 5.6MHz DSD
from a computer when the USB button is set to USB 2.0 (recommended for all Mac
users and Windows users with music files above 96kHz or DSD). Accepts digital audio
input up to 96kHz from a computer when the USB button is set to USB 1.0
(recommended for all Windows users with music files that do NOT exceed 96kHz or
DSD). Windows users note: For playback of files above 96kHz, Windows requires
installation of the USB 2.0 driver on your PC before it will be compatible with the USB
2.0 setting. Please visit

J
USB 2.0/1.0 Button: Toggles the USB-B input between USB 2.0 and USB 1.0
compatibility. All Mac users should set this to USB 2.0 (in). Windows PC users should
set this to USB 1.0 (out) if using music files that do NOT exceed 96kHz. Windows users
should set this to USB 2.0 (and must install the Windows USB 2.0 driver) if using any
music files that exceed 96kHz. Note: changing the setting while the unit is on will not be
active until the unit is cycled through standby mode. It is recommend that the unit be
put into standby mode prior to changing this setting.
K
COAX INPUT: Accepts S/PDIF digital audio input from a
coaxial (RCA style) output
up
to 192kHz. C
oaxial digital audio output is available on many digital audio sources
including disc players and some streaming audio devices.
L
OPT-1 & OPT-2 INPUT: Accepts S/PDIF digital audio input from a optical (Toslink style)
output up to 192kHz. Optical digital audio outputs are common on digital audio sources
including;
streaming audio devices, disc players, cable boxes and HDTVs.
M
LOOP OUTPUT & LOOP INPUT:
This is a loop feature (similar to a processor or tape
monitor loop) with an output and input that are tied together to allow an audio
processing device to be inserted into the signal path. The loop is active when the LOOP
LED on the front panel is lit blue. The loop can only be engaged and disengaged using
the LOOP button on the remote control. This makes it easier to compare the original
audio signal to the modified audio signal when using the connected device. Please note
that when the loop is active, the audio signal from the nova is output on the LOOP
OUTPUT connectors and the audio signal output from the connected device is looped
back into the LOOP INPUT connectors on the nova. Improper wiring or use of this
feature may result in no audio when the loop is engaged. When the loop is disengaged,
the circuit is completely bypassed to shorten the audio signal path and minimize
potential interference.
N
PREAMP OUTPUT:
Provides analog audio output to connect to a powered subwoofer
or an external power amplifier. Note: the RIGHT and LEFT speaker outputs remain
active when the PREAMP OUTPUT is used and both sets of outputs are automatically
muted when the mute function is engaged or when headphones are connected to the
front panel.
O
AUX-1/HTB INPUT: Accepts line-level input from an analog audio (RCA style) source.
Also, accepts line-level analog audio output from a Surround Sound Processer (SSP) or
Audio/Video Receiver (AVR) when set to Home Theater Bypass (HTB). Please see the
Home Theater Bypass instructions elsewhere in this manual for more detail.
P
AUX-2/PHONO INPUT: Accepts line-level input from an analog audio (RCA style)
source. Also, accepts analog audio output from a phonograph/turntable with a Moving
