2.2. True 1-bit DSD Decoding

The R30 supports native DSD1024 resolution through its true 1-bit DSD DAC architecture. In DIRECT mode, DSD signals are processed without PCM conversion, preserving the original digital stream for authentic playback.

2.3. Versatile Digital Inputs

The device offers multiple digital input options, including USB, LAN, Optical, Coaxial, AES, and IIS. USB, LAN, and AES inputs support audio decoding up to PCM 32Bit/768kHz and DSD512, allowing connection to various source devices.

2.4. Flexible Analog Outputs

Analog audio outputs are provided via RCA and XLR connections, facilitating integration with power amplifiers, active speakers, and other Hi-Fi audio equipment.

2.5. GCLK-02 Clock Module and External Clock Support

The integrated GCLK-02 clock module utilizes advanced PLL technology for precise clock signal processing. The R30 also supports external 10MHz clock input for further enhancement of audio quality.

2.7. 12V Trigger System

The DAC-R30 includes 12V trigger input and output, enabling synchronized power on/off with compatible audio components for streamlined system control.

3. Sąranka

3.1. Įdėjimas

Place the R30 on a stable, level surface away from direct heat sources, moisture, and strong electromagnetic fields. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit.

3.2. Maitinimo prijungimas

1. Connect the provided power cable to the AC inlet on the rear panel of the R30.
2. Kitą maitinimo laido galą prijunkite prie tinkamo kintamosios srovės lizdo.

3.3. Garso įvesties jungtys

Connect your digital audio source(s) to the corresponding input ports on the R30's rear panel:

• USB: Skirta prijungti prie kompiuterio ar kito USB garso šaltinio.
• Optinis (TOSLINK): For connecting to TVs, CD players, or other optical digital sources.
• Koaksialinis (RCA): For connecting to CD transports or other coaxial digital sources.
• AES (XLR): For professional audio equipment with AES/EBU digital output.
• IIS (HDMI): For connecting to compatible IIS-enabled audio devices.
• LAN (eternetas): For network streaming from a local network or internet services.

3.4. Garso išvesties jungtys

Connect the R30 to your amplifier arba aktyvūs garsiakalbiai:

• RCA išėjimai: Use high-quality RCA cables to connect to the analog inputs of your ampkeltuvai arba aktyvūs garsiakalbiai.
• XLR išėjimai: Use balanced XLR cables for optimal signal integrity when connecting to compatible balanced inputs on your ampkeltuvai arba aktyvūs garsiakalbiai.

3.5. 12 V trigerio jungtis (pasirinktinai)

If your other audio components support 12V trigger, connect a 12V trigger cable between the R30 and the compatible device to enable synchronized power control.

4. Operacija

4.1. Maitinimo įjungimas/išjungimas
