Information: The HELIX DSP.2 can only han-
dle uncompressed digital stereo signals in PCM
format with a sample rate between 12 kHz and
96 kHz and no Dolby-coded signals.
5. Connection to power supply
Make sure to disconnect the battery before
installing the HELIX DSP.2!
Solely use the included screw-type terminal
to connect the HELIX DSP.2 to a power sup-
ply. Make sure of correct polarity. The ground

at a non-insulated point. Inadequate grounding
causes audible interference and malfunctions.
