DIGITAL INPUT OPERATION

USING THE SPDIF INPUTS

The SPDIF inputs include; COAXIAL 1, COAXIAL 2, OPTICAL, and AES/EBU.

1. Select the desired input by pressing COAXIAL 1, COAXIAL 2, AES/EBU or OPTICAL

button. Once selected, the SI-300.2d will confirm your selection by display the input name in

LARGE print for a few seconds, and then will default to the following display.

2. Initiate playback of the corresponding SPDIF source. Once playback begins the Signal Input will

appear in the display window. The Output Signal will display based on its setting. For example,

if the Signal Input is 44.1K and the TruBit™ Sample Rate Converter is set to 192K the display

will appear as follows: ( Please read the TruBit™ Sample Rate Converter section of this manual

for more on its operation ).

NOTES:

•

Digital input signals can be outputted in both digital format (via the COAXIAL and

TOSLINK DIGITAL OUTPUTS) and analog format (RCA and Balanced XLR)

simultaneously.

•

Only linear PCM signals with a sampling frequency of 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz, 96kHz,

176.4kHz or 192kHz can be played over the SPDIF inputs. Do not input any digital

signal other than linear pulse code modulation (PCM) signals (CD-ROM, Dolby Digital,

DTS signals, etc.). Doing so will generate output noise that could damage the speakers.
