Wadia Digital 170 Computer Hardware User Manual


 
Connections
Avoid static discharge to the inputs or outputs. To prevent static shocks,
touch any grounded surface, such as the chassis of any component that
uses a grounded 3-prong plug, before connecting or removing a cable.
It is unlikely that a static discharge will damage the unit, but it may
cause the Wadia 170iTransport circuitry to “lock-up” (see Lock-Up under
Trouble Shooting in Appendices).
Choosing a Digital Cable
The Wadia 170iTransport uses a Coaxial S/PDIF Connection with an RCA connector.
The quality of any of these transmission methods depends on the quality of the
cable and the sophistication of the transmitter and receiver. While the cable
included with the Wadia 170iTransport will certainly work for the transmission
of digital information between the Wadia 170iTransport and a Digital to Analog
Converter or other digital receiving device, we recognize distinct advantages in
higher quality cables available today.
Again, we highly recommend that you take advantage of your dealer’s experience
and, most importantly, trust your ears.
