Brushed aluminum finish exemplifies the quality of
construction
The front panel is constructed of thick brushed aluminum. The high-quality
luxurious finish matches the overall attention to the finest possible quality, shown
in such details as the illuminated periphery to the control buttons, the top-panel
logo, and the milled aluminum disc tray.
Unsurpassed design and features
Separation of power supplies for each major function (digital audio, DAC
circuitry, analog audio) ensures total fidelity. The DACs have sub-ground
impedances with exceptional S/N figures.
Audio DACs
All audio channels use Burr-Brown 24-bit DA converters (PCM1704). Improved
linearity is achieved for the two front channels by the use of dual converters for
each channel.
The audio DAC boards employ a high-quality quartz crystal, resulting in the
almost complete elimination of jitter and subsequent distortion-free DA
conversion.
Word synchronization
A master word clock from a high-quality DA converter or master clock generator
can be used for clock synchronization, resulting in the almost complete
elimination of jitter.
Using a high-quality clock signal provided by an external DA converter such as
the Esoteric G-0/G-0s provides optimum audio quality.
i.LINK (AUDIO) terminal
The digital surround audio from Super Audio CDs can be output from the i.LINK
(AUDIO) terminal.
