far right side is the main power switch (“0”=off,
“1”=on), the IEC receptacle, labeled “AC Input” for
the included AC power cord, and the “AC Fuse”
socket cover. Connect the supplied AC power cable
to the IEC receptacle. Ensure that the AC wall outlet
you use has a functioning ground. For the best
sonic performance, it is preferable that you plug
your 380D directly into a dedicated AC outlet and
avoid using an extension cord. If you have the time
and willingness, consider installing a superior quality
AC wall outlet such as a hospital grade Hubbell*.

SimLink™
The main feature of SimLink™ on the Nēo 380D,
involves the “Standby” function. By pressing down
and holding the “Standby” button for 2 seconds on
the 380D, all other MOON components connected
via the SimLink will go into “Standby” mode along
with the 380D. The same logic applies when
switching from “Standby” to active mode. However,
if your MOON 380D is equipped with both the
“MiND” Music Streamer and the variable analog
outputs, then the SimLink™ offers many more
features: Volume, Mute, Standby. Digital Input
Selection all via the “MiND” app running on your
Apple or Android device
The connection rules for the SimLink™ are very
straightforward. You must always connect the
supplied cable between one component’s “SimLink™
Out” jack and another component’s “SimLink™ In”
jack. If you inadvertently connect the cable between
either two “SimLink™ In” or two “SimLink™ Out”
jacks, the SimLink™ communication feature will not
function. Also, there is no master component in a
SimLink™ chain; no one particular component
operates as the main communications controller. If
you are using your Nēo 380D with an older MOON
product such as a P-7, P-8 or i-7, you will need to
update the software of the older product to allow for
complete SimLink™ functionality. Contact your
retailer for further details.
Operating the 380D
We recommend leaving your Nēo 380D powered
up at all times to maintain optimal performance.
When you plan on being away for a few days, it may
not be a bad idea to power off your DAC. Please
keep in mind that once fully “broken-in”, your 380D
requires several hours of operation before reaching
optimal performance after powering it up again.
Turning on your Nēo 380D for the first time
Prior to turning the DAC on for the first time, make
sure that every cable is properly connected to avoid
any problems. Flick the main rocker switch, located
on the rear panel, labeled “POWER” to the ‘1’ (on)
position. Next, briefly press the push button labeled
“Standby” located on the front panel. You will hear a
very faint click sound confirming that everything is in
order. The blue LED on the front panel will
illuminate, indicating that the 380D is now powered
up and ready for use.
On and Off Sequence
To avoid having any annoying noises (ie. “thumps”
and “pops”) emanate from your speakers when
powering your 380D on or off, you should always
power up your 380D before powering up your
preamplifier, integrated amplifier or power amplifier.
As well, always power down your 380D after
powering down your preamplifier, integrated
amplifier or power amplifier.
