5.) Line Output - Use good quality interconnect cables from these sockets to any line level input on your amplifier. For best results and matched performance, we recommend connection to a Cambridge Audio Azur amplifier.

6.) S/P DIF co-axial digital output - For input to a separate DAC, such as Cambridge Audio DacMagic*, or digital recording machine. To obtain best results, use a high quality 75ohm digital RCA interconnect cable (not one designed for normal audio use).

7.) TOSLINK Optical digital output - Use to connect to the input of a separate DAC* or digital recording machine. Use a high quality TOSLINK fibre optic interconnect cable.

Note: To obtain the best results from your system we recommend using only high quality Cambridge Audio interconnects. This will ensure that you hear your system as we designed it.
