Do you have a question about the CAD CAT SERIES and is the answer not in the manual?
Connect the CAT directly to a wifi router with an Ethernet cable. Avoid extenders for best quality.
Connect the CAT to the 1543 MKII DAC via USB and attach the external power supply cables.
Verify CAT, DAC, and tablet are powered and connected correctly to the same network.
Ensure correct selection of JPLAYStreamer and THE_CAD_CAT (CAD DLNA) in the app.
Learn to play full albums, queue tracks, and save playlists within the app.
Set a fixed IP for the CAT to prevent playback interruptions from IP changes.
Insert a CD for automatic import and metadata download using dBpoweramp.
Configure JPLAY settings like Engine, DAC Link, and PC Buffer for optimal audio quality.
CAT converts DSD files to PCM format ('DoP') for playback with the 1543 DAC.
Use 'Xtream' setting in JPLAY for DSD files; consider WASAPI if issues occur.
Avoid exposing the unit to rain or moisture, do not open the case, and ensure ventilation.
