QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS
Q. My CD player has both fiber optic and coaxial outputs.
Which
one should I use?
A. Given a choice, we prefer the AT&T optical link due to its ability
to completely
isolate
the grounds between the digital
source
component and the Processor.
This minimizes the possibility
of
ground loops in the digital
components.
The AT&T format also
has the added benefit
of substantially
higher bandwidth than
coax or the standard fiber optic interface.
If a coax cable must be
used,
we suggest
the AES/EBU balanced
format.
This inter-
connection
utilizes
a + 5v digital
format and the additional
benefit
of balanced termination.
Q o Will I damage my STUDIO 2 if I leave the power "ON" all the
time?
A. No. The Class A discrete
analog circuits
perform more consis-
tently
once they reach thermal equilibrium.
This Processor has
been designed to be left On at all times. The STUDIO 2 draws less
than 30 watts out of the AC mains socket.
NOTE: For the protection
of your Processor,
we recommend
disconnecting
the AC cord from the wall outlet
before
any
electrical
storms or if you plan on being away from home for
prolonged periods of time.
