A
SIGNAL GND grounding terminal
Connecting this grounding terminal to the grounding terminal
of the D/A converter, amplifier or other device might improve
the audio quality.
o This is not an electrical safety ground.
B
Digital audio output (DIGITAL OUT) connectors
These output digital audio. Connect these to the digital input
connectors of a D/A converter (such as a D-05X).
ES-LINK: HDMI cable
o Use the two HDMI cables included (one each) with this unit
and an ESOTERIC D/A converter. The shape of the ES-LINK
connector is the same as that of an HDMI connector, but it
transmits signals that are in a unique ESOTERIC format. Do
not connect the ES-LINK connector to an HDMI connector on
a device made by another company. ES-LINK and HDMI con-
nectors are not compatible.
o The HDMI cable included with this unit is directional.
Connect the end of the cable with white marking to the D/A
converter.
Use commercially-available cables for the following
connections.
XLR: XLR digital cable
RCA: RCA coaxial digital cable
o Use one pair of these to connect the unit to the D/A converter.
Change the output settings of the connectors according to
the connectors being used (page 24).
o We recommend using ES-LINK when connecting to a D-05X.
o When connecting to an ESOTERIC D/A converter (Grandioso
D1/D-01/D-02/D-03/D-05/D-02X/D-05X/D-07X) or D/A con-
verter that supports Dual AES, use two cables and connect
this unit's XLR 1 (L) connector to the L connector on the D/A
converter and this unit's XLR 2 (R) connector to the R connec-
tor on the D/A converter (Dual AES connection).
C
Power inlet (~IN)
Connect the included AC power cord to this socket. After com-
pleting all other connections, plug the power plug into a power
outlet.
V
Use only a genuine ESOTERIC power cord. Use of
other power cords could result in fire or electric
shock.
V
Disconnect the power plug from the outlet if you
will not use the unit for a long time.
D
CLOCK SYNC IN connector
Use this to input clock synchronization signals.
When using a master clock generator, connect its clock output
connector to this unit's CLOCK SYNC IN connector.
Use a commercially-available BNC coaxial cable for this
connection.
Use a BNC coaxial cable with 50Ω or 75Ω impedance.
At ESOTERIC, we use ESOTERIC MEXCEL stressfree cables for
reference.
