   • Ingresso PC-USB: Connect the PC-USB port on the rear panel to your computer using the provided USB cable.
   • Ingresso ottico: Connect an optical cable from your audio source (e.g., TV, game console) to the OPTICAL input on the rear panel.
   • Ingresso coassiale: Connect a coaxial cable from your audio source to the COAXIAL input on the rear panel.
3. Connetti alimentazione: Connect the DC 5V power input on the rear panel to a suitable 5V power adapter using the provided Type-C charging cable. Ensure the power adapter provides stable 5V output.

6. Istruzioni per l'uso

1. Accensione: Turn the VOL (Volume) knob clockwise to power on the unit. The power indicator light will illuminate.
2. Seleziona ingresso: Use the input switch (USB/OPT/COA) on the front panel to select your desired audio source.
3. Regola volume: Rotate the VOL knob to set the desired listening volume.
4. Regola tono: Utilizzare le manopole BASS e TREBLE per regolare con precisione le frequenze basse e alte in base alle proprie preferenze.
5. Headphone Output Priority: When headphones are plugged into the 3.5mm headphone jack, the RCA analog output will automatically be disconnected. To use the RCA output, ensure no headphones are connected.

Istruzioni per l'uso PC-USB:

1. Connect the DAC-A2 to your PC using the provided USB cable. The DAC-A2 is plug-and-play and should be automatically recognized by your operating system (XP/W10/W11/MAC/Linux).
2. On your PC, locate the speaker icon in the lower right corner of the taskbar.
3. Right-click the speaker icon and select "Sound Settings" or "Playback Devices".
4. In the pop-up dialog box, select the DAC-A2 as the default playback device. It should be recognized automatically without needing manual driver installation.
5. Conferma la tua selezione.

Setting TV OPT/COA Output:

When connecting your TV via Optical or Coaxial, you may need to adjust your TV's audio settings:

1. Navigate to your TV's system settings (e.g., "Application" desktop -> "Settings" -> "Sound" -> "Sound-optical / coaxial output mode-turn on").
2. If there is still no sound after setting, adjust the TV volume to 0 through the TV remote control.
3. Note: If some TVs are equipped with external speakers, there might be no sound from the TV itself when using external audio output.

7. Suggerimenti per l'utente

• Alimentazione elettrica: Ensure you use a stable 5V DC power supply. Using a power supply with high interference can introduce noise.
• Utilizzo delle cuffie: The DAC-A2 can directly drive headphones (16-200Ω) from sources like DVD players, providing a direct listening experience without needing additional amplificazione.
• Compatibilità con dispositivi mobili: The PC-USB input is primarily designed for computers (PC/MAC/Linux). Direct connection to mobile phones via USB may not be supported or require specific adapters/drivers not included.
• Volume Matching: Be mindful of volume levels from both the DAC-A2 and any connected amplifiers or powered speakers to avoid distortion. Adjust both stages appropriately.
• Cavi di segnale: For optimal sound quality and to minimize interference, use shielded audio cables, especially for input connections.

8. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

Nessuna uscita audio:

1. Indicatore di alimentazione: Check if the POWER indicator is on. If not, verify the 5V power supply connection.
2. Selezione input: Ensure the correct input source (USB, OPT, COA) is selected using the front panel switch.
3. Livello del volume: Confirm the VOL knob is not at its minimum setting (rotate clockwise to increase).
4. Dispositivo di origine: Check if your audio source device is paused, muted, or has its volume set to minimum.
5. PC-USB Specific: If using PC-USB, ensure the DAC-A2 is selected as the default playback device in your computer's sound settings. Restarting the computer and re-selecting the device might help.
6. Uscita RCA: If using RCA output, ensure no headphones or headphone adapters are plugged into the 3.5mm headphone jack, as this will disable the RCA output.

Sound Distortion/Broken Sound:

The DAC-A2 acts as a pre-amplifier. If both the DAC-A2 and a connected amplifier/powered speakers are set to maximum volume, distortion can occur. Reduce the volume on either the DAC-A2 or the downstream device.

Loud Current Noise/Beep:

1. Alimentazione elettrica: If not using the original standard power supply, try replacing it with a high-quality, stable 5V DC power adapter. Many third-party power supplies can introduce interference.
2. Cavi non schermati: Unshielded signal cables can pick up interference. Replace them with shielded audio cables or unplug unused input cables if you experience a loud beep when no audio source is playing.

Volume Differences Between Sources:

Different audio playback devices (e.g., mobile phone vs. CD player) have varying output signal amplitudes. This can result in different perceived volumes even if the DAC-A2's volume setting remains unchanged. This is normal behavior.

9. Manutenzione

• Pulizia: Utilizzare un panno morbido e asciutto per pulire l'esterno dell'unità. Evitare l'uso di prodotti chimici aggressivi o materiali abrasivi.
• Ambiente: Keep the DAC-A2 in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and excessive moisture.
• Gestione: Maneggiare l'unità con cura per evitare danni fisici. Evitare di farla cadere o di sottoporla a forti urti.
