he OBH-14 is a novel product,
combining both Digital to
Analogue Conversion at up to 24

: Bit resolution, with automatic sampling
frequency adjustment up to 48 kHz and
: simple passive Analogue signal handling
. capabilities, encapsulated in a miniature
~ case.
: signals from CD, DVD, DAT, DAB and
- other digital sources, via two inputs, into
analogue signalst It is also able to handle
: one stereo analogue channel and can be
- switched between digital and analogue
input from the front panel Also on the
: front panel is a high grade ALPS volume
A potentiometer which allows one of the
outputs to be fully adjustable

It can be used to convert digital

OBH- l4 lliCHNICAl SP]

The OBH-14 has six gold plated
Phono sockets (RCA Jacks) on its rear
panel providing analogue connection to
and from the unit: two inputs for line
level Analogue signals, two fixed level
outputs from either digital or analogue
sources and two adjustable analogue
outputs from either the analogue or
processed digital inputs. A single phono
(RCA Jack) socket is provided for
inputting digital signals from various
sources by co-axial cable.

' an optical (TORX) socket for inputting
: digital signals from various sources by
- fibre optic link.

i The two digital input sockets are
: common, so only one digital input can
- be used at any time However, both
inputs could be connected to different
: sources as long as these are not used
- simultaneously It the OBH-14 is used to
drive a Power amplifier and volume
: adjustments are required, the control
- knob on the front panel can be used to
