Follow these simple steps to connect Zodiac Gold to your system setup:
1. Connect to the DC power source via rear panel connector (14).
2. Connect your choice of digital input(s) and analog outputs on the rear panel.
3. If you wish to use USB as the digital input, connect the Zodiac Gold USB cable to your
computer. The guest operating system will recognize the new output audio device (Zodiac

and select Zodiac Gold from the list.
