powerful, deep bass, exact timing with live-character
* Professional transformer-coupled digital inputs and transformer-coupled digital output (Cinch)
* Professional optical High-Speed digital input and optical High-Speed digital inputs (High-Speed-Toslink)
* Programmable precision sample rate converter in front of the D/A-converter
allows upsampling, downsampling or native processing of the digital data
* 2 different digital filters
* Digital deemphasis
* Extremely low-jitter processing with 10ppm high-precision-quarz
* Highly precise impulse-, phase- and group-delay-optimized special differencial-analog-filter in
4. order with following filter in 1. order.
Both filters realized with styroflex-capacities with 1 percent tolerance
* Layout optimized to shortest signal paths
* Professional Class-A output stage
* Relais with gold plated silver contacts
* Switchable output resistance
* 5 separated, stabilized power supplies for digital and analog sections
*
All input jacks and output jacks are gold plated
* DAC and one external 50VA power supply integrated in heavy, massive, solid high-end-
casings with high glossy black acryl fronts and resonance absorbing polished chrome feet
*
As an option available: An additional (second) external 50VA power supply integrated in a heavy,
massive, solid high-end-casing with high glossy black acryl front and resonance absorbing
polished chrome feet
* Every device comes along with "its own" original measuring record of the frequency response,
further measuring records are available on request
