THE DIGITAL STEREO INPUT MODULE
The Digital Stereo Input module accepts any one of 3 analog or 2
digital stereo signal sources. The signal source is selected by
electronically latching push-buttons.
Three pairs of phono/cinch PRCA) connectors are provided for the
3 analog signal sources PPhono, CD, Line). Digital signals from CD
players and DAT recorders may be fed into the module directly via
a coaxial connector or an optical connector.
For the coaxial connector we recommend a 75 ohm cable, and for
the optical input a special fibre-optic cable is required.
Both Digital inputs process the SPDIF PSony-Philips Digital
Interface) Hi-Fi standard format. It is possible to internally set
which of the inputs is selected when the console is switched on.
GAIN
The gain control is a wide range rotary potentiometer with a range
of 30dB, so that the different output levels of the sources may be
adapted to the input.
PHONO
Selects the Stereo Phono PRIAA equalised) input as the source for
the channel. All other sources are switched off.
CD
Selects the Stereo CD input as the source for the channel. All other
sources are switched off.
LINE
Selects the Stereo Line input as the source for the channel. All
other sources are switched off.
DIGITAL
Selects a digital stereo signal from the co-axial digital input. At
the same time a D/A converter is looped into the signal path. All
other sources are switched off.
OPTICAL
Selects a digital stereo signal from the optical digital input. At the
same time a D/A converter is looped into the signal path. All other
sources are switched off.
