W_OUT (Word sync output frequency)
Select the frequency of the word sync signal. The factory
setting is “44.1k”.
< The word sync signal is output only when the WORD button
is set to “OUT”.
(“P” means “4% down mode for PAL film”)
CH_SEL (Channel Select)
Select the channel for this unit.
<
The icon of the selected channel lights on the display.
<
The icon will blink if the channel you set here differs from the
channel of the input signal. In this case, select the proper
channel again, or check the connection to the digital device.
DSD
Used to select a sampling rate (Fs) to convert DSD to PCM.
88.2 k (factory setting) or 176.4 k are available.
DSD gain
Used to select a level for DSD-PCM conversion. 0 or +6
(factory setting) are available.
<
With the DSD set to 176.4 kHz and the DSD gain to +6, there
is a chance that the sound will be distorted when playing
back discs on which music is recorded at very high volume
levels. If this is the case, set “the DSD to
88.2 kHz and the
DSD gain to +6” or “the DSD to 176.4 kHz and the DSD gain
to
0”.
<
When the DSD gain is set to 0, Super Audio CD discs are
played back at a lower level than CDs are.

Low-pass analog filter (80kLPF)
The use of this filter produces a subtle difference in sound
directivity. Switch this filter on or off (default) depending on
your preference.
With this filter switched off, there is a chance that unexpected
and abnormal noise could be produced and harm your
speakers or trip the protection circuit on your power amplifier.
To protect your system it is recommended that this filter be
switched ON.
IEEE 1394 remote control function (1394RC)
When multiple D-01 units are directly connected using IEEE
1394 cables and you have this function on, the functions of
all D-01’s in the chain can be controlled using only the left
channel D-01. The P-01 source should be the first machine in
the IEEE 1394 chain followed by all the D-01’s. (Do not
connect the P-01 between the D-01 units.)
The linking of the control functions among the D-01s is
available as long as IEEE 1394 cables are used to connect the
D-01 units. You can use a different input type other than
IEEE 1394 if you chose. If you do use a different input type,
by also connecting the D-01s with IEEE 1394 cables you can
control all D-01s with only one unit as long as this function is
switched on.
With this remote control function switched off, the IEEE 1394
circuit is powered only when the input is set to IEEE 1394.
Dimmer
The display and indicators can be dimmed to suit the
environment in which you listen to music. There are three
levels and an “off” setting.
<
In OFF mode, when you press any button, the illuminations
turn temporarily on.
< Note that the OFF setting is not memorized when the power
is turned off. When the unit is switched off with the display
off, and then turned on again, the display is reset to the
minimum brightness (Dimmer1).
<
The factory setting is “Dimmer3”.
