Note

• The HDD AUDIO PLAYER is equipped with a built-in antenna for wireless LAN. Make sure to keep a distance between the HDD AUDIO PLAYER and speakers or other devices to maintain good wireless communication.

Hint

• The D/A DIRECT・LINE OUT jacks directly output analog signals through the D/A converter without using any internal connectors or signal switchers. This eliminates as many elements that reduce the sound quality as possible.

  You can use the HDD AUDIO PLAYER as a D/A converter by connecting it to an external amplifier.

  You can connect a digital audio device to the OPTICAL IN or COAXIAL IN jack of the HDD AUDIO PLAYER and output the signal from these jacks through the D/A DIRECT・LINE OUT jacks. (The D/A DIRECT・LINE OUT jacks do not output analog signals input through the LINE IN jacks.)
