In case of balanced cables, it should always been verified if the shield of the cable is connected to the shell of the xlr connect...

Page 10: General Information
10 general information lake people dac rs 06 is a top-range d/a converter, distinguished by its resampling unit, its 32-bit double mono converters and very particular analog output stages. By means of their specially designed, variable low-noise and low-distortion circuitry, the dac rs 06 fulfils ev...
Page 11: The Case
11 the case the case as well as the front/rear panels are made of solid aluminum. This choice of material ensures high mechanical stability and resistance. Earth and ground the case of dac rs 06 is grounded. Internal reference ground is bridged to protective earth by means of a jumper. The jumper is...

12 the power switch the unit is activated by means of the power switch. Power-on status is indicated by the green led below. The digital inputs four digital inputs are found on the unit's rear panel. They are denoted according to their electrical properties: balanced, coaxial (unbalanced), optical a...

13 dependend on your specific computer and/or software. The 24/96 usb input is usb 1.1 based and normally runs without a specific software. For the 24/192 usb circuitry a special driver is needed which can be downloaded on our web site www.Violectric.Com or www.Violectric-usa.Com in order to avoid a...

14 polarity of the xlr terminals complies with aes 14-1992: 1 = ground, 2 = (+) in phase, 3 = (-) out of phase. Source impedance of all analog outputs is significantly lower than 1 (one) ohm ! Note: when connecting unbalanced lines to the balanced outputs, pin 3 must not be bridged but left unused (...
Page 15: Resampling
15 resampling is a mighty feature for the transformation/restoration of jittered signals into high-quality signals. As well, the signal quality of 44.1 or 48 khz sources can be improved by converting them to a higher rate. This also complies to the usb input which often suffers from jitter caused by...

16 the menu consists of two points. To enter the menu push and hold the right “resampling” button for two seconds. The yellow “on“ led flashes constantly. The green led under “bal” flashes once to show that menu 1 is entered. Afterwards it is either on or off. 1st menu item: sharp or soft digital fi...

18 about the analog output level unlike in the analog world, digital technology uses a clearly defined maximum level, described as 0 dbfs, or "zero decibels full scale" in clear text. From this maximum downward, signal levels are expressed with a negative sign. The “translation“ of the digital level...

One or more green leds will be lit constantly. 1 led = output level +3 (-3) dbu for 0 dbfs 2 leds = output level +9 (+3) dbu for 0 dbfs...

20 how it all works... The dac rs 06 offers high-class technology by means of well thought- out handling, a variety of inputs, the resampling module, top-notch converters and, above all, its outstanding and flexible analog output circuitry. Taken from one of four possible inputs, the digital signal ...

Without careful consideration of the analog output stages it wouldn't have been possible to make the outstanding performance of the top- notch converter available at the ...

22 dismantling / jumper settings hint: here we are talking about internal adjustments inside your dac rs 06. You are in need of a screw drivers torx style size t10 or a 3mm hex allen key. You should by all means pull the mains plug !!! Only thereafter the settings can be altered without any hazard. ...
