Wadia Digital S7I CD Player User Manual


 
Selecting an Input
The Wadia S7i Integrated CD Player / Decoding Computer has four digital inputs, plus the internal drive. Any of
the inputs can be selected from the remote control by pressing the input button. Each time the input button is
pressed, the next input is selected. For example, if you are listening to internal drive and you press the input
select, Input 1 will be selected, press it again, and Input 2 will be selected and so on. After Input 4, the list will
begin again with the internal drive.
Whenever you select a new input, the display will switch to the Input Screen.
Inverting Absolute Phase
The Wadia S7i Integrated CD Player / Decoding Computer has the ability to invert absolute phase in the digital
domain. Pressing the Phase Invert button on the remote control will cause the Wadia S7i Integrated CD
Player / Decoding Computer to invert phase; pressing it again will switch the phase back to normal. If the Wadia
S7i Integrated CD Player / Decoding Computer is in Phase Invert mode, this will be indicated on the Input Screen
of the display.
Display On/Off
By pressing the Display On or Off button, the Wadia S7i Integrated CD Player / Decoding Computer display can
be turned off completely.
Mute Modes
The Wadia S7i Integrated CD Player / Decoding Computer has two mute modes that are automatically implemented
under different circumstances.
DSP-Software Mute
When the Mute button is pressed on the remote control, the Wadia S7i Integrated CD Player / Decoding
Computer’s DSP engine transmits a stream of zero signal level samples to the DAC section, which results in
zero output.
Output-Relay Mute
The Wadia S7i Integrated CD Player / Decoding Computer has a mute relay connection between the positive
and negative outputs, when this relay is engaged, it connects the positive output to the negative output,
reducing the output to zero. This relay, which produces an audible click when it engages or disengages, is
not in the music signal path. The mute relay is engaged:
• When the Wadia S7i Integrated CD Player /Decoding Computer detects AC input level below its minimum
operating range.
• Each time the Wadia S7i Integrated CD Player / Decoding Computer power switch is turned on.
• When the volume control is set to zero AND the mute button on the remote control is pressed. When
the Wadia S7i Integrated CD Player / Decoding Computer is in either Mute Mode, the Volume Screen will
indicate this by displaying the word, “MUTE.”
Direct Track Access
Use the number pad on the remote to directly access individual tracks.
