Oracle DAC 1000 D/A Converter + Pr e-amplifier ORACLE AUDIO TECHNOLOGIES OWNER'S MANUAL.
INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing the Oracle DAC 1000 D/A c onverter + pre-amplifier . Please read carefully the instructions before using your DAC 1000. This unit is manufactured under strict quality control and must be used properly for safety and optimal performance.
CAUTION! Oracle DAC 1000 voltage is preset according to the country used. If you move after purchasing the DAC 1000, please cont ac t Oracle Audio T echnologies to modify your voltage wiring for proper use. T o reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not put the DAC 100 0 in water , humidity or near a heat source.
FEATURE 1. High-End Preamplifier The DAC 1000 is specially designed to guarantee the full fidelity of high-end sound reproduction for almost a life time usage. High quality Digital volume control and dual monaural design provide excellent separation with pin-point imaging.
24 Bit /192 kHz, Delt a-Sigma DAC Custom designed digit al filter S pecially designed digital filtering circuitry is used in DAC 1000 to enhance the quality of sound by providing a cleaner signal with an excellent signal to noise ratio. PLL Circuit For a jitter-free signal, special PLL circuit is applied in the Digital section.
INPUT / OUTPUT PORTS 1. Connection of DAC 1000 D/A converter + pre-amplifier On the rear of DAC 1000, there are 2 Analog Outputs (1 Balanced, 1 Unbalanced) , 2 Analog Inputs (1 Ba lanced, 1 Unbalanced), 6 Digital Input s and 4 Digital Outputs and the analog ‘Surround’ input.
2) Analog Output XLR Balanced & RCA Unbalanced outputs are provided for t he connection of power amplifiers. Both outputs can be used at the same time.
