APPLE COMPUTER COMPATABILITY
Apple computers can transmit a 24/192 kHz signal to the CD 303T over the optical inputs.
Most of the recent model Apple computers contain a mini optical digital audio output that
can transmit 24/192 kHz high-resolution audio files to the CD 303T.
However, a USB driver capable of accepting a 24/192 kHz signal has not yet been
created for Apple computers. Due to its sophistication and its ability to receive a 24/192
kHz signal, the USB input on the CD 303T was specifically written for Windows-based
computers.
