1
Turn off the power of the R-1.
2
Set the volume of the speakers to the minimum setting.
* If you're using a digital connection, the R-1's output volume control will not affect the
volume.
* The digital output has a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz.
3
Connect the digital output jack to your digital-compatible amplified speakers.
Use a cable with a round optical mini-plug to connect to the R-1's digital output
jack.
Cables are not included; you will need to provide them separately.
Now you can use the R-1 to record or play back as described in "Basic recording
methods" (p. 29) or "Playback methods" (p. 38).
4
Gradually raise the speaker volume to an appropriate listening level.
If you're using a digital connection, the R-1's output volume control will not affect
the volume.
