Connections

• Co Axial Digital Inputs: From the Back panel connect the input with a digital

coaxial cable (7 or 10 on the “Back Panel” page) to the coax output from any

coaxial digital source.(CD and DVD players, Sonos modules, Squeezebox

modules, cable box, etc..etc..) Select the corresponding input in the front of

the decco2.

• Optical Digital Inputs (sometimes called Toslink): From Back panel connect

the input with an optical cable (8 or 9 on the “Back Panel” page) to the optical out-

put from any optical digital source (CD and DVD players, Sonos modules, Squee-

zebox modules, cable box, Apple Airport, Apple TV) Select the corresponding

input on the front of the decco2.

• USB Input for Computer: While both the decco2 and your computer are “On”, connect a USB cable

from your PC to the back of the decco2 (# 6 on the “Back Panel” page). On the bottom right corner of your computer

screen, you’ll see a speaker icon. RIGHT CLICK this icon and select “Adjust Audio Properties”. Follow the “Volume”

tab. Next to the speaker icon in the volume tab, use the drop-down tab and select USB Audio DAC. You are now

ready to launch and play your favorite music server program like iTunes or Windows MediaPlayer, although there

are many more to choose from. Be sure you have the USB input selected on your decco2. Also be sure you make

the USB connection before launching the music server program.

• USB for Mac: While both your Mac and decco2 are in the “On” position, connect a USB cable from your

Mac to the USB input on the back of the decco2 (# 6 on the “Back Panel” page)..In the “Systems Preferences”

choose the speaker icon. When the next box appears, switch from “Internal Speaker” to “USB Audio Device”.

You are now ready to launch and play your favorite music server program like iTunes although there are many

more to chose from. Be sure you have the USB input selected on your decco2. Also be sure you make the

USB connection before launching the music server program.

• Analog Connections: The analog hook ups are for using conventional components like Tuners, Tape Decks,

SACD players, etc. If you plan to use a turntable, you’ll need an external phono preamp to match your car-

tridge output. Consult your dealer for recommendations.

• Speaker Output: The decco2 is designed to drive one pair of speakers between 4 and 8 ohms. It is not advisable

to use more than one pair of speakers with the decco2.

• Pre Out: The Pre out can be used for several operations:

Subwoofer output:

Run a stereo pair of RCA cables from the pre-out (#14 on the “Back Panel” page) to the subwoofer line-in.

If your subwoofer has only one line-in, you can use a single RCA connection from either channel. Almost all

music information below 100HZ is mixed in mono so it will not make a sonic difference. This single line RCA

type plug will then be connected to the single input on your subwoofer.

External Amplier: Connect the Stereo RCA cable from the pre output of the decco2 to the stereo RCA in-

puts on your external amplier. Connect the speaker wires to the speakers. Turn on the decco2 and then the

external amplier. At this point, you’ll be using the decco2 as a Digital and Analog Preamp.

External Amplier and Powered subwoofer: You will need to split the L/R outputs to two L/R outputs. To do

this, you’ll need to purchase 2-Y-Adapters (Single Male to Two Female). Plug the Y Adapters into the pre-out

of the decco2. You now have two outputs for each channel. Connect 1 set of L/R RCA type connectors to the

external amp and the other two outputs to your subwoofer.

• Using decco2 as an external DAC: Connect the “Fixed” line out from the decco2 to an Aux input of

your receiver or preamp.

Connect any digital input to the decco2 as described above. Select the connected digital input on the

decco2, then select the input on your Preamp/Receiver that is connected to the decco2’s line output.

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT THE decco2 “FIXED” LINE TO A PHONO INPUT. THIS WILL OVERDRIVE

YOUR PREAMP AND YOU MAY DAMAGE YOUR PREAMP/RECEIVER AND OR SPEAKERS.

The USB connections are repeated in the Useful Tips pages
