Tips
At Peachtree Audio we think that products should be easy to use. Therefore, we don’t require
any custom USB drivers or software programs in order to listen to your music from your computer.
The Nova’s USB audio input is used to take music les from your computer’s hard drive and play
them back with superb delity.
While some of the wording and steps vary somewhat between MACs and PCs, the basic in-
structions are very similar.
USB Connections
PC
Connect the USB terminal on the Nova to a USB connection on your computer.
Your computer will “see” the USB Audio DAC inside the Nova. You may get a “USB AUDIO DAC”
pop-up box but it’s not necessary.
Right click the speaker icon on the bottom of your screen
Select “Audio” tab
Using the drop-down box choose USB AUDIO DAC
Click OK
Launch Music Program and play
Mac
Later Mac setup may vary but the basic instructions are outlined below
Click on to System preferences
Click on to the speaker icon

Once you do this setup your computer should recognize the USB Audio DAC and default to it
when plugged in. If you unplug the USB connections and reboot your music before re-connecting
rst, you may nd that you have to go back through steps 3-7, This is not unusual.
