also

a

digital

output

jack

—

a

single

connector.

If

your

preamplifier

has

a

digital

decoder

and

can

accept

a

digital

you

can

connect

your

CD

player

to

your

preamplifier

using

this

digital

jack.

Please

note

that

using

will

bypass

the

internal

RLS

D/A

conversion

circuitry

and

therefore

miss

one

of

the

major

benefits

of

the

HD7425.

The

best

use

of

this

output

is

for

direct

connection

to

a

digital

recorder,

a

very

or
