April Music Stello DA100 Signature - Manual (Page 5)

Front Panel
STANDBY : A push-button front panel standby switch is used for normal and standby
operation. An illuminated red LED above it indicates the DA100 Signature is operating.
The actual power switch is on the rear panel and should remain on continuously.
UPSAMPLE : AES / EBU, S/PDIF (Coax), Optical (Toslink) and USB Input modes:
You can select either 24 Bit /192kHz upsampling (green LED), 24 Bit / 96 kHz upsam-
pling (red LED) or Bypass (no LED). ‘BYPASS’ means the digital output is exactly same
as the digital input (up to 24 Bit / 96 kHz). Which mode is better? You be the judge.
Musicality and nuance vary depending on the recording status of the sources.
Generally, we recommend 192 kHz upsampling for most playback.
LOCK : Green color LED indicates that an input digital signal has been detected by
DA100 Signature.
INPUT : Select any input you want to hear from any of the five digital inputs :
1 AES / EBU, 1 S/PDIF Coaxial, 1 Optical, 1 USB (Universal Serial Bus), and I²S.
