Xlr Balanced Audio Output; Trigger Input & Output - Oppo SonicaDAC User Manual

XLR Balanced Audio Output
XLR balanced connection offers better common‐mode noise rejection and improved signal quality over
the RCA connection. If your preamplifier, power amplifier, or active speakers offer XLR balanced inputs,
you may use a pair of XLR audio cables to connect the Sonica DAC's XLR Balanced Audio Output to the
XLR input of your device.
Trigger Input & Output
You can connect the Trigger Output of Sonica DAC to the trigger input of a preamplifier or power
amplifier using a 3.5 mm mono‐to‐mono mini‐jack cable. When Sonica DAC is turned on, the Trigger
Output will supply a +12 V voltage signal to automatically turn on the connected pre‐amplifier or power
amplifier. The Trigger Output can supply up to 100 mA current.
The Trigger Input of Sonica DAC can be connected to the trigger output of another device and Sonica
DAC will turn on and off together with the connected device.
The use of Trigger Input & Output is not required. You can always manually turn on or off Sonica DAC
using the Power Button on the front panel.
