In most circumstances, when used with a preamplifier or integrated amplifier, the output
level of 2Vrms will be achieved at the 12 o'clock position and pro audio level of 4.2Vrms at 3
o'clock (approximate)
Lock
The Lock indicator will "light up" when the compatible digital signal is detected and the
input of DAC is synchronised with digital signal source.
The DAC is now ready to operate.
Reset
TAD-1S is equipped with a `reset` switch (non-latching) located on the back plate.
Occasionally, the digital receiver may not lock onto the signal during power up cycle (or
`hot` swapping digital input cables) Should this occur, simply single press and release the
`reset` switch. This will restart the receiver's automatic 'signal locking' procedure.
Other Information
Placement
Apart from the tubes which, by their very nature are designed to run hot, the TAD-1S is
relatively cool running and operates well below the maximum allowed temperature for
consumer audio.
It should be positioned so as to allow free airflow around it and not placed on top of other
equipment – particularly Class A amplifiers which run hot.
Possible vibrations should be minimised as far as possible. For example; The TAD-1S must
not be placed on top of speakers. Ideally, the unit should be placed in line with (or slightly
behind) the plane of your speakers and additional benefits may be gained by placing it on a
good quality isolation platform.
