2.4 Digital Thru (XLR)
The input signal is being reproduced 1:1. This connection is
for connecting the second speaker through the first one (for
stereo reproduction).
Please only use authentic AES/EBU digital audio cables,
which are balanced and have an 110Ω wave impedance.
Please do not use a ‘normal’ XLR micro cable. Please do
neither extend nor shorten the cable.
Never plug a cable carrying a digital signal into an analog
connector or vice versa!
2.5 Word Clock In
This connection is for a Word Clock used in many studios.
The Word Clock needs to have the same frequency as the
sampling rate of the digital signal. Also, the two frequencies
need to be absolutely synchronous.
By default, the input is terminated with 75Ω. If you wish to time-phase externally
and/or to loop through the Word Clock circuit to another device, the time-phasing
can be deactivated by a jumper on the bottom side of the converter (please see
3.4).
However, we recommend to use a direct single connection between a Word Clock
splitter and a device since the external time-phasing and looping through requires
BNC-Tee pieces and BNC terminators. That makes it more susceptible to errors.
Cables: 75Ω coaxial cables with BNC plug-in connectors (as “Word Clock cable”
on the market).
