Schiit Audio 3PLUS Digital Analog Converter Owner’s Manual
CONNECTIONS
- RCA Analog Outputs. Connect the two RCA jacks, to your amp, preamp, or receiver.
- Coaxial Digital Input. Connect a coaxial digital source, using an RCA cable, 75 ohm preferred.
- Optical Digital Input. Connect an optical source to the optical input jack, using a Toslink cable.
- USB Data and Power Input. Connect a USB source using a USB micro cable (supplied).
- Power Input. Connect a 5V power source to this if you need external power. See “Operation.”
OPERATION
If you’re using Modi 3+ as a USB only DAC, you don’t need Power Input. Just connect it to your computer with the supplied USB Micro cable and you’re set.
If you’re using the other digital inputs, and you’re NOT using USB, you need Power Input. Connect the supplied USB wall-wart with the supplied USB Micro cable to provide power for the other inputs. Modi 3+ won’t work without power, and power comes from USB.
CONTROLS
- Power LED. This lights up when you have Modi 3+ plugged into a computer, or into an external power source. It doesn’t signal UFOs or anything.
- Input Selector. Use the toggle switch to select what you want to listen to.
Top: Unison USB™ input
Middle: Optical (Toslink) input
Bottom: Coaxial input
Pretty straightforward, right?
TROUBLESHOOTING
“Draws too much power” error. You’ll need to use additional power.
Disconnect Modi 3+ from your source, then connect the wall-wart to the Power
Input using the USB Micro cable. The Modi 3+ will then report as a 0mA USB
device. You’ll need another cable to connect to your source.
No sound? Make sure Modi 3+ is selected in Control Panel (Windows) or
System Prefs (Mac) AND in your player software.
