1. Warning

When connecting or disconnecting the connector cable between the main body and

the power supply unit, be sure to unplug the power cord first.

If the cable is connected or disconnected while the power switch is on, the main body

will break down. In this case, repairs will incur charges, even during the

warranty period.

2. Connection Instructions

1) Connecting the DSP-030EX

①First, check that the power cord for the DSP-030EX power supply unit is

unplugged. Also, check that the power switch on the power supply unit is off.

The power switch is located on the bottom of the power supply unit near the

center toward the front panel.

②Connect the power supply unit to the DSP-030EX main body using the 2 cables.

After firmly inserting the cables all the way, use the ring-shaped screws to secure

them firmly. Match the screws with the grooves on the connector and turn the

screws while pressing straight down on them. If the connection is insufficient, it

may lead to malfunction or in the worst case, breakdown of the main body.

③Connect the external clock unit to the DSP-030EX main body BNC terminal.

④Connect power cable of the external clock unit to the DSP-030EX main body

clock power supply terminal.

⑤Connect the preamp (pre-main amp) to the DSP-030EX. For this connection you

can use a balanced cable or an RCA cable. Although using both simultaneously

will not lead to a breakdown, it is not recommended from an audio quality

standpoint. For detailed connection instructions, refer to the amp manual.

⑥Connect the LAN cable to the LAN port on the back of the DSP-030EX main

body and connect the DSP-030EX to your home LAN network. If you use DELA

or fidata for NAS, you can connect directly to the NAS. For details, refer to the

NAS manual.

⑦Connect the power cord to the DSP-030EX power supply unit and plug it into a

socket.

⑧When turning the power switch on, be very careful that the speaker is not

damaged by the DSP-030EX switch noise. Turn the amp power off or switch the

selector.

corresponding software manual.

３）Other Software

If you would like to create a playlist (a list specifying the order of tracks to be played

back) on your PC, or if you would like to edit the information, such as album name or

composer name, of the CD data that has been ripped, it would be convenient to install

the following piece of software. (DSP-030EX can be used without this software)
