A Beginner’s Guide to Good Audio
What qualities distinguish a good audio system?
Let’s start with a misconception. “Wow! I’ll bet that can play loud!” This, or
something like it, is typical of the newcomer’s reaction to an audiophile’s setup,
particularly if the speakers are large.
Why a system’s loudness capability should be the measure of excellence isn’t
difficult to understand. People install often quite costly sound systems in their
cars. Some of the larger specimens seem capable of shaking their host vehicle
apart. The pavement trembles when one passes by. A club’s sound system is in
the same league: ear-splitting, gut-wrenching, floor-buckling output. With the
exception of classical music, which is rarely ever amplified, the same is true for
most live concerts. Domestically, the average boom box can break a lease. TV
ads featuring hard-pumping woofer cones say it all.
On actually sitting down and listening to our hypothetical audiophile’s sound
system, the newcomer will likely say “Wow!” again, followed this time by “It’s so
clear!”
Clarity. The term takes in a host of qualities. As strange as this may seem, one of
clarity’s principal components is silence. A silent audio system — an audio
system that contributes little to no noise of its own — reveals the music all the
more clearly at listening levels from soft to loud.

Resolution likewise contributes to clarity. Imagine two mounds of sand in bright
sunlight. One mound is mixed with mud. It’s difficult to see its individual grains.
The other mound is free of mud. You have no trouble seeing its tiny, glittering
bits. And so it is with high-quality audio. The music shines through. Nothing
muddies the sonic image. You hear the texture of a singer’s voice almost as if
she’s in the room. Instrumental timbres allow you to distinguish the purposeful
grunge of the rockers’ guitars. Violas differ from violins, likewise oboes from
English horns. A good sound system allows you to make these listening
distinctions.
Soundstage. Another critically important measure of an audio system’s quality
is its ability to project a convincing soundstage. Can you perceive its width and
depth? Is it realistically proportioned? Can you hear the venue as large or small?
Is it clear to you where the musicians perform within the soundstage?
Depending on the style of recording, our audiophile’s sound system provides
the answers. And of course the pleasures.
Speed. An audio system’s superior speed produces crisp, clean attacks: a violin
or trumpet’s edge, a drummer’s rim shot, a marimba’s wooden loveliness –– all
those little delights that mimic live music.
Bass. To return to trembling pavements and hard-pumping woofer cones, the
audiophile’s guest will be pleasantly surprised to discover that a high-quality
sound system’s low end is as tuneful and clean as the rest of the audio spectrum.
Again, no mud. Just lovely, well-defined sounds. A good audio system aims at
naturalness.

Size. Good audio is not necessarily big audio. If you shop wisely, you need not
spend a fortune to achieve a high level of audio performance. With these
pointers as a guide, the newcomer has a good idea of what to listen for. The least
expensive NuForce components will more than satisfy modest applications. With
our reference-grade components serving as the culmination of all our efforts,
our entire line answers to the same ideal: accurate, vibrant, lifelike sound.

DAC and Headphone Amp User Guide
Introduction
CD-ripping software is capable of reproducing “bit perfect” digital music data
(16 bit/44.1kHz) from audio CD files stored on the computer’s hard drive. In
addition to CD-quality music, some online sites are now offering 24 bit/96kHz
music files. Thanks to larger and increasingly economical hard-disk capacity,
consumers can store the highest quality music files on their computers. However,
extracting good sound from the computer poses problems.
Poor Sound Quality
As a rule, your computer’s audio doesn’t sound quite right because computer
manufacturers often treat their products’ audio output stage as little more than a
necessary evil. So long as the music signal remains in a digital format, all is well. The
pitfalls appear when the computer converts signals to analog, which is how we
listen to music. Typically, the onboard converter (a.k.a. sound card) is a low-cost
item. Digital circuitry generates noise that often bleeds into the audio stage.
Further, these compromised stages are seldom designed for the low-impedance
power high-quality headphones require. Finally, should you use the computer’s
software to reduce volume, you may actually be listening to eight-bit resolution —
in real-world terms, not at all good.
In sum, these deficits conspire to produce inferior sound. Far better to send the
digital signal to an external digital-to-analog converter (DAC). NuForce Desktop
products employ quality DACs.

Digital Connections
There are two methods for extracting digital signals from your computer. The
universal serial bus (USB) connection is the de-facto standard for just about all
peripherals: printers, digital cameras, etc. The USB allows the computer to
speedily recognize a connected device. Some computers also incorporate the
Sony/Philips Digital Interconnect Format (S/PDIF), a coaxial connection with
excellent transfer properties.
USB Audio and Performance Optimization
USB specifications define a standard interface: the USB audio-device class, which
allows a software driver to work with the currently available USB sound devices.
Microsoft Windows and Apple Mac provide support for USB audio devices.
NuForce Desktop USB DACs convert USB digital data to the analog signal
headphones and amplifiers require. Equally as important, how the USB DAC
performs affects sound quality.
For more information on this subject, see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Serial_Bus.
Some Optimization Tips
To minimize noise and dropouts, connect your audio interface to a port at the
back of your computer. Generally speaking, ports on the computer’s face,
monitor or keyboard don’t perform as well.

382 South Abbott Ave, Milpitas, CA 95035, USA • www.nuforce.com • EMAIL: [email protected] 17

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


If you use a USB hub, choose one with its own AC power adapter. In areas that
produce high levels of radio or electrical interference, upgrading to a quality USB
cable, i.e., one with extra shielding and a ferrite bead (the cylindrical collar on
one end of the cable) to help eliminate noise. Once you’re properly connected,
your computer’s operating system should automatically detect your NuForce
product. From that moment on, all you need to do is enjoy the music.
Windows PC Driver Optimization
ASIO4ALL is a hardware-independent, low-latency ASIO driver for WDM audio
devices that employs WDM Kernel-Streaming and other sophisticated methods.
What You Should NOT Do
Do not tamper with or replace your existing sound-card drivers.
Do not install any kernel-mode components that might affect your system’s
stability.
Do not “over-clock” or operate your audio hardware in ways that have the
potential to do harm. This will void your warranty. (In certain cases, your
hardware’s manufacturer states that the use of ASIO4ALL will void your warranty.)
No software-driver optimization is required for the Apple Mac OS.
S/PDIF Connection
The Icon HDP permits an S/PDIF connection from your computer, if that’s your
preference. For best results, use a high-quality S/PDIF cable. Once the
connection is made, select S/PDIF in your System Preferences Audio Device
settings.

Analog Connections
You need only connect headphones to your NuForce device’s headphone jack
and adjust for volume with the unit’s volume control. If connecting to an
external amplifier or stereo receiver, you will require a quality stereo
interconnect with a standard male RCA connector for plugging into the NuForce
device and an appropriate connector at the other end (usually, an RCA).
Note on Headphone Use
Headphones present a challenge to amplifier designers. There are two basic
types: the over-ear (OE) in general use in the recording industry and the smaller
in-ear (IE), a.k.a. ear-bud, commonly used with portable devices such as MP3
players. Given the range of available OE and IE headphones, in attempting to
deal with all of them, your computer’s headphone output is optimized for none.
Your NuForce Icon product will make a world of difference.
The reason is simple enough. Various OE and IE phones cover an expanse of
electrical impedances from 16 to 600 Ohms and differ in other significant ways.
Sensitivity is a term that expresses how loud the headphones will play at a given
amount of electrical power, e.g., x number of decibels per milliwatt (0.001 watt)
of power, expressed as xxxdB/mW.
Typically, OE types exhibit sensitivities of about 100dB/mW, whereas IE devices
can be 10dB higher or more, e.g., 110dB/mW. Assuming a 10dB difference, the
lower sensitivity OE headphones require ten times more power to achieve the
same volume as the IE type. If you’re using OE headphones, you’ll appreciate the
NuForce Icon Series’ power capability. Your headphones will sound clearer and
more natural. If you use IE headphones, owing to their higher sensitivity, you

382 South Abbott Ave, Milpitas, CA 95035, USA • www.nuforce.com • EMAIL: [email protected] 19

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


may notice a small amount of background noise. Conversely, you will hear weak
signals more readily than would be the case with lower-sensitivity OE types.
We are not discussing a product defect. Electrical noise arises from many factors,
one of which is the amount of amplification the Icon product provides.
Irrespective of type or design, electrical circuits introduce noise. If the device
amplifies the signal, the noise coming into it will likewise be amplified. Further,
the amount the device itself creates will also be greater. These are facts of
electrical life that good design can mitigate. In the case of IE headphones, noise
can be minimized or all but eliminated by reducing the amplifier’s gain. But to
do that, the advantage the amp offers to OE headphone users would be
sacrificed. Performance benefits for one type of product diminishes those of the
other. As always, effective engineering requires compromise. In this regard, the
NuForce Icon Series of products offer good, real-world solutions. Noise will be
low in some cases, and in others, quite imperceptible. Most importantly, OE
headphone users will benefit from the power they require.
