The MP 3100 HV as D/A Converter
General Information on
D/A Converter Operation The

MP 3100 HV can be used as a high-quality D/A converter for other
devices such as computers, streamer, digital radios etc. which are fitted with
poor-quality converters or no converter at all. The
MP 3100 HV features two
optical and two electrical S/P-DIF digital inputs on the back panel to allow this
usage.
A USB-DAC input on the back panel permits to use the
MP 3100 HV as D/A
converter for computers.

You can connect devices with electrical co-axial, BNC, AES-EBU or optical
output to the digital inputs of the
MP 3100 HV . At the optical inputs Digital In 1
and Digital In 2 the MP 3100 HV accepts digital stereo signals conforming to
the S/P-DIF norm, with sampling rates of 32 to 96 kHz. At the co-ax input and
the BNC and AES-EBU inputs Digital In 3 to Digital In 6 the range of sampling
rates is from 32 to 192 kHz.
At the
USB DAC IN input the MP 3100 HV accepts digital PCM-encoded stereo
signals with sampling rates of 44.1 to 384 kHz (32-bit) and DSD data with
sampling rates of DSD64, DSD128, DSD256* and DSD512*.
