RCA: RCA cables
Connect this unit's R connector to the R connector of the ampli-
fier, and its L connector to the L connector of the amplifier.
o Set the analog output to XLR2, XLR3, RCA, ESLA or OFF
(page 26).
o When connecting this unit with an amplifier that has ES-LINK
Analog (ESL-A) connectors, we recommend connecting the
XLR connectors on this unit to the ES-LINK Analog (ESL-A)
connectors on the amplifier (page 12).
B
Digital audio input (DIGITAL IN) connectors
Use to input digital audio signals. They can be connected to the
digital output connectors of appropriate audio devices.
Use commercially-available cables for connections.
COAXIAL: RCA coaxial digital cable
OPTICAL: optical digital cable (TOS)
C
Digital audio output (DIGITAL OUT) connectors
These output digital audio signals from CDs played on this unit
and signals input through this unit's digital audio input (DIGITAL
IN) connectors.
Connect the digital audio output (DIGITAL OUT) connectors on
this unit to the digital audio input connectors of other digital
devices, such as a DA converter, AV amplifier or recorder.
Use commercially-available cables for connections.
XLR: XLR digital cable
RCA: RCA coaxial digital cable
o These connectors cannot output Super Audio CD digital audio.
o Digital output can be set to OFF, XLR or RCA (page 26).
D
SIGNAL GND grounding terminal
The audio quality might be improved by connecting this ground-
ing terminal to an amplifier or other device that is connected to

When using clock synchronization, connect the clock output
connector of the device outputting the clock signal to the clock
input connector on this unit. Then, set the external clock (CLK>)
setting to SYNC (page 25).
Use a commercially-available BNC coaxial cable for
connection.
o BNC coaxial cables with 50Ω or 75Ω impedance can be used.
G
USB port
