DAC2 Series Instruction Manual Rev C Page 11

The ‘Mute’ and ‘Dim’ functions are used to

gracefully silence the DAC2. The ‘Mute’

function will fade the volume down before

completely muting, and will ramp the volume

up after un-muting. The ‘Dim’ function will

also fade the volume down, but will not

completely mute the audio. Dim is

convenient for reducing volume to low levels

during television or radio commercials or

while conducting a conversation.

The level of the ‘Dim’ volume setting can

easily be set by the user with the remote

control. The DAC2 will remember the user’s

preferred ‘Dim’ setting upon returning to

‘Normal’ mode, and will recall it when ‘Dim’

mode is engaged again.

To engage ‘Dim’ mode, press the ‘Dim’

button. To set the level of the ‘Dim’ mode,

simply press the ‘Volume up’ or ‘Volume

down’ button on the remote control until you

achieve the desired ‘Dim’ level. To exit ‘Dim’

mode and return to ‘Normal’ mode, simply

press the ‘Dim’ button again.

The ‘Dim’ level cannot be set higher than the

‘Normal’ level. A minimum offset will be

reached when adjusting the ‘Dim’ level

upward. This minimum offset occurs just

below the ‘Normal’ level setting. If the user

continues to raise the volume above the

minimum offset, the DAC2 will enter ‘Normal’

volume mode.

The ‘Mute’ button quickly fades the volume to

a full mute, while moving the rotary volume

control to the 'Dim' setting. When exiting

‘Mute’ mode, the volume will ramp up to the

‘Normal’ volume setting.

While in ‘Normal’ or ‘Dim’ mode, pressing the

‘OFF’ button will immediately mute the DAC2

and place the system in standby. After 5

minutes of inactivity, the displays will shut

down, but all circuits will remain active. Press

the power button twice to shut the system

down and save power.

Direct Interfacing to Power

Amplifiers

The DAC2 is designed to be able to interface

directly to power amps and powered studio

monitors. This configuration provides the

cleanest and shortest path from the digital

source to the monitor output and often results

in a substantial improvement in sound

quality.

The DAC2’s XLR output is equipped with 0,

10 and 20 dB output attenuators for optimal

interfacing. The pads optimize the output

signal level of the DAC2 to the input

sensitivity of virtually any load (amplifier,

preamp, etc). Most power amplifiers and

powered monitors require the 10 dB or 20

pad setting. The DAC2 is factory-set with the

10 dB pad enabled.

Mute on Headphone

Insertion (DAC2 HGC and

DAC2 D model only)

The left-hand headphone jack includes a

switch that mutes the main analog outputs

(XLR and RCA) when a headphone plug is

inserted. This feature allows the listener to

switch from loudspeaker to headphone

playback seamlessly. This mute feature can

be disabled with internal jumpers.
