In contrast to a red book CD-player, a computer
in conjunction with TELEMANN's USB input can
play files with extremely high resolution and with
different formats like WAV, FLAC or DFF (DSD
bitstream). Such music files can be downloaded
on
specialist
internet
shops
like
2L.no,
HDtracks.com or highresaudio.com to name but
a few. The choice of music and the number of
albums available is clearly limited today, but
new releases show up every day. The big
advantage here is that you are not bound to a
certain
format
like
SACD
or
DVD-Audio.
Computer audio is future proof.
The second essential digital audio format is
S/PDIF (Coax 1, 2, AES/EBU and optical). The
TELEMANN supports sample rates up to 192kHz
and bit depths up to 24bit.
Furthermore, you can optionally use the cinch
output pair as analog input by altering two
internal
jumpers.
By
abandoning
the
unsymmetrical output, you now get a full
working preamplifier for use with a phono stage
for instance.
