Headphone Output
Two identical headphone outputs are provided via ¼ inch (6.35mm) jack sockets.
You can use either one or both at the same time.
It is advised to power up the unit before putting on headphones to avoid switch on
noise and any discomfort if volume control has been left set too high.
Volume Control
The analogue volume control can be manually adjusted to increase or decrease
the volume to the headphones for comfortable listening. Take care when
adjusting not to set the level too high to avoid damaging your hearing.
Input Selection
You can select either the analogue inputs via RCA phono or XLR or the USB input.
Function Position
Analogue - In
USB input - Out
Using USB digital audio
Connect your personal computer via an A to B type USB cable. The Toucan will
automatically be recognised by the computer as a USB DAC. All audio from the
computer will be streamed to the Toucan so you can listen via the headphones. (In
some cases you may need to change the computer audio settings to set the playback
device as USB Audio).
Crossfeed Network Selection
To provide a more coherent soundstage we have provided an additional filter that
adds a crossfeed network and delay. The result is a more spatial soundstage giving
an enhanced listening experience.
Press the crossfeed switch in to activate the filter.
