NOTE: When connecting inputs to the DAC XP+, ensure that only digital
audio sources are connected to 'Digital' inputs.
Connecting Digital Audio Sources
The digital audio inputs of the DAC XP+ are compatible with a number of
different digital audio sources. These include-
•
Digital Audio output from a CD player
•
DVD players (for replay of 2 channel PCM programs only)
•
Digital tape/disc recorders
•
Digital Radio
•
Digital Satellite receivers (for replay of 2 channel PCM programs only)
Using a suitable Toslink optical or Digital phono interconnect, connect each
digital audio source to one of the inputs 1~6. Make a note of the input number
used for each source as the inputs of the DAC XP+ can be re-named at the
set-up stage.
Connecting Analogue Audio Sources
Analogue Inputs 7-8 are available for the connection of stereo analogue audio
sources to the DAC XP+. Inputs 7-8 are intended for use with analogue
program sources which include-
•
Analogue output from CD/DVD Players
•
Televisions
•
Analogue Satellite Receivers
•
FM Radio tuners
•
Analogue VCRs/Tape recorders
•
Surround decoders
Connecting Power amplifiers
External power amplifiers are necessary to drive the system speakers. Both
stereo and high power monoblock Cyrus power amplifiers are available to
partner the DAC XP+ and a choice of RCA phono or balanced outputs is
provided.
NOTE:- Take care to connect each of the DAC XP+ output channels to the
correct power amplifier and loudspeaker.
Connecting to power amplifiers with phono inputs
With suitable phono interconnects, connect from the Pre Out terminals 1% to
the power amplifier inputs. The system loudspeakers may then be connected
to each power amplifier. Dual outputs are provided to enable the connection
of two amplifiers for bi-amping.
Connecting to power amplifiers with balanced inputs
With suitable Balanced interconnects, connect from the Balanced Output
terminals a to the power amplifier inputs. The system loudspeakers may then
be connected to each power amplifier. Dual outputs are provided to enable
the connection of two amplifiers for bi-amping.
Fixed output
The Fixed output is connected directly to the internal DAC stage of the DAC
XP+ and bypasses the internal preamplifier and volume control. It may be
used to feed the DAC stage output to an external system preamplifier, or for
high quality tape recording from digital sources.
NOTE:- Analogue inputs 7 and 8 are not routed to the Fixed output.
CAUTION:- Do not connect power amplifiers to the Fixed output.

Connecting a Cyrus Surround Sound decoder
In a Cyrus multi-channel surround sound system the surround decoder may
be connected through the DAC XP+ to share the same front channel power
amplifiers.
In this case, connect a stereo phono interconnect from the front channel
outputs of the surround decoder to the Input 7 sockets 1# of the DAC XP+.
For this system to function correctly both the DAC XP+ and the Cyrus
surround decoder must be included in an MC-BUS connection loop and the
'Cyrus AV' input name must be set for Input 7 (see 'MC-BUS' section and
'Input names' in the 'Setup menu' section).
When set up in this way, the DAC XP+ will automatically check for the
presence of the decoder when the 'Cyrus AV' input is selected, then lock the
DAC XP+ volume setting to an appropriate level.
Connecting a Surround Sound decoder (other brand)
If your system includes a multi-channel surround sound decoder (but not a
Cyrus model), it may be connected through your DAC to drive the front
channel speakers.
In this case, connect a stereo phono interconnect from the front channel
outputs of the surround decoder to one of the Analogue Inputs of the DAC.
For this system to function correctly, the 'AV Direct' input name must be set
for the input used (see 'Input names' in the 'Setup menu' section).
When set up in this way, the DAC will automatically lock its volume setting to
a fixed level to match the output of the surround decoder.
CAUTION: The 'AV Direct' input name should only be used for surround
decoders that include a volume control, as the volume control of your DAC
will be fixed at a very high level.
Connecting to the Digital Output
An optical Digital Output d is provided for the connection of another digital
device to the DAC XP+. This may include such devices as a multi-channel
surround decoder or a digital tape/disc recorder. The currently selected digital
input signal will be routed to this output.
