weight
12.1kg/26.6lbs

CD mechanism
Dual laser CD/SACD mechanism. (Esoteric UMK-5™).

converter type
dCS Ring DAC topology, oversampling to 5 bits at 2.822 or 3.07 MS/s. CD data may be upsampled to DSD before oversampling.

analogue outputs

Output Levels: 2V rms or 6V rms

Balanced Outputs - 1 stereo pair on 2x 3-pin male XLR connectors

Unbalanced Outputs - 1 stereo pair on 2x RCA Phono connectors.

digital I/O

INPUTS

2x SPDIF on 2x RCA Phono connectors accepts 24 bit PCM at 32, 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4 & 192kS/s.

OUTPUTS

2x SPDIF PCM interfaces on RCA Phono connectors, output CD format when a CD is playing only.

When playing a CD, the data may be upsampled to DSD before oversampling (set in the menu). Upsampling of data from the Digital Inputs to DSD may be activated by loading a license, avaiable from dCS.

word clock I/O

INPUT

Word Clock Input on 1x75Ω BNC connector. When playing a disc, accepts standard word clock at 44.1kHz. When using the Digital Inputs, accepts standard word clock at the data rate.

OUTPUT

Word Clock Output on 1x 75Ω BNC connector. Outputs 44.1kHz when playing a disc and not locked to an external clock.
