A
Digital audio input connectors
Use these to input digital audio.
Connect these to the digital output connectors of digital devices
(including the P1, P-01, P-02, P-03 and P-05).
ES-LINK: HDMI cable
Use commercially-available cables for the following
connections.
XLR: XLR digital cable
RCA: RCA coaxial digital cable
Optical: optical digital cable
i.LINK (AUDIO): 6-conductor or 4-conductor i.LINK cable (IEEE
1394 cable or FireWire cable) that supports S400.
o
We recommend using ES-LINK when connecting to a P1.
o
An i.LINK (AUDIO) connector is an interface that allows bidi-
rectional communication between connected devices. There
is no distinction between input and output connectors.
o
Both 6-conductor and 4-conductor i.LINK connectors are
built-in. Use the one appropriate for the connection cable.
When connecting multiple devices using i.LINK cables, use
both connectors. (For information about i.LINK cable connec-
tions, see page 22.)
o
The XLR connector supports Dual AES. If the digital source
device that you are using supports Dual AES, use two cables
to connect the left channel unit XLR connector to the left
digital output on the audio source device and the right chan-
nel unit XLR connector to the right digital output on the
audio source device.
B
Grounding terminal (GND)
Connecting this grounding terminal to the grounding termi-
nal of another D/A converter, amplifier or other device might
improve the audio quality.
V
This is not an electrical safety ground.
C
Clock sync input and output connectors (CLOCK
SYNC IN, OUT, 10MHz IN)
Use these to input and output clock synchronization signals.
When using a master clock generator, connect its clock sync out-
put (CLOCK SYNC OUT or similar) connector to this unit's CLOCK
SYNC IN connector.
When inputting a 10 MHz oscillator signal, connect the output of
the oscillator to this unit's 10MHz IN connector.
Use the clock settings to select the active clock sync input (page
14).
Connect this unit's CLOCK SYNC OUT to the clock sync input of
the digital source device.
Use commercially-available BNC coaxial digital cables for these
connections (CLOCK SYNC IN/OUT: 75 Ω, 10MHz IN: 50 Ω).
D
Left-right channel link connector (L-R)
When using two separate units for the left and right channels,
connect this connector with an HDMI cable.
The D1 set to Lch using the CH setting will send settings and
right channel audio data to the D1 set to Rch.
o
When using multiple D1 units for multichannel audio play-
back, connect to the i.LINK (AUDIO) connector of each unit
(page 22).
E
Power inlet
Connect the included AC power cord to this socket. After com-
pleting all other connections, plug the power plug into a power
outlet.
o
This unit's power cord connection socket uses three pins, but
the grounding pin does not connect to its chassis.
V
Use only a genuine Esoteric power cord. Use of other
power cords could result in fire or electric shock.
Disconnect the power plug from the outlet if you will not
use the unit for a long time.
F
Analog audio output connectors (LINE OUT)
These output analog audio.
If the amplifier has XLR audio input connectors, use commer-
cially-available XLR audio cables to connect to them.
If the amplifier has RCA audio input connectors, use commer-
cially-available RCA audio cables to connect to them.
At Esoteric, we use Esoteric MEXCEL stressfree cables for
reference.
