Transporter™ Owner’s Guide
Audio Connections
Transporter has a host of both digital and analog connections to choose from. Picking the
one that’s right for you depends on how your current audio system is set up. For instance, if
balanced inputs are available on your amplifier, preamplifier, or receiver, it’s usually better to
use those rather than the unbalanced inputs.
Transporter also provides a set of digital input connections to allow other digital audio sources
to use Transporter as a digital to analog converter. You can select from these inputs using the
remote control or front panel controls.
Transporter has the following audio connections available:
Analog Outputs
• Unbalanced RCA connections (2Vrms/5.7Vpp, 100 ohms impedance, with
selectable attenuation)
• Balanced XLR connectors (3Vrms/8.5Vpp, 100 ohms impedance, fixed
attenuation)
Digital Outputs and Inputs
• TOSLINK optical connector (660nm wavelength, IEC-958 / S/PDIF encoding)
• Capacitor-coupled coaxial RCA connector (500mVpp into 75 ohms, IEC-958 / S/
PDIF encoding)
• Transformer-coupled coaxial BNC connector (500mVpp into 75 ohms, IEC-958 /
S/PDIF encoding)
• Balanced XLR connector (4.7Vpp into 110 ohms, AES/EBU encoding)
• Word clock input for use with an external word clock generator
Using Transporter as a Standalone DAC
You can use Transporter as a standalone digital-to-analog converter (DAC) to convert S/PDIF
or AES/EBU signals from a CD player or other digital source to analog for connection to an
amplifier or preamp.
When not connected to SlimServer or SqueezeNetwork (you will see Transporter Setup
on the top line of the display), use the remote control or knob to scroll to the digital input
you’d like to use then press the right arrow button, the center of the knob or the PLAY
button. That input will remain selected until you choose another or connect to SlimServer or
SqueezeNetwork.
If Transporter is connected to SlimServer or SqueezeNetwork, scroll to the Digital Inputs
menu, go right, then press PLAY to use the selected input.
