Θυμάστε το νέο 32bit/192kHz DAC της AKM που σας έλεγα εδώ; Αυτό είναι η καρδιά του D-05, δηλαδή του νέου dual mono 32 bit D/A converter της Esoteric. Το ταίρι του είναι το P-05 CD/SACD transport.
Aκολουθούν τα στοιχεία που δίνει η ίδια η εταιρεία...
D-05 dual mono 32 bit D/A converter
ESOTERIC is proud to introduce evolutionary components for CD/SACD audiophile playback.
The D-05 DAC supplies extremely natural and “true-to-life” analog signals to the amplifier by using the latest 32 bit digital to analog converter devices. The D-05 is the world’s first D/A converter incorporating the “AK4397” Delta-Sigma DAC device from AKM Semiconductor, Inc., This device has full 32 bit processing capability. The “AK4397” was designed combining newly developed high speed / high capacity digital processing components and improved analog processing components. This device provides premium quality sound reproduction on a professional level. The “AK4397” has a superior and precise D/A conversion capability thanks to its fully extended 32 bit processing throughout all stages, including digital filter and the “Delta-Sigma,” modulator. This high performance technology is an evolutionary upgrade path from conventional 16 or 24 bit D/A converters. The D-05 incorporates dual mono digital and dual mono analog circuits, with dual mono power supply components to achieve extremely high resolution and superior channel separation. This design follows in the footsteps of Esoteric’s D-03 dual mono D/A converter. Word clock input and output is included for use with Esoteric transports or stand alone master clock sync generators. For more information please see the PDF file indicated below.
D-05 feature highlights;
- PCM digital audio up-conversion function
- PCM to DSD conversion function
- Native DSD mode for SACD playback
- Remote control (When used with the companion transport model P-05 or transport model P-01).
- Output level control from the D-05 front panel and the P-05 remote control (requires P-05).
- iLink terminal
P-05 CD/SACD transport
ESOTERIC is proud to introduce evolutionary components for CD/SACD audiophile playback, incorporating a completely new VRDS-NEO mechanism (and using new 32 bit D/A converter technology in the companion DAC model D-05).
The VRDS-NEO mechanism in the P-05 is a high performance CD/SACD transport solution for the next generation of audiophiles! The P-05 builds upon the success of Esoteric's model P-70. This newly developed VRDS-NEO model VMK-5, (New-Vibration free Rigid Disc clamping System), combines two ESOTERIC proprietary technologies; the turntable disc clamping system and the unique VOSP (Vertically aligned Optical Stability Platform). The turntable securely clamps the disc and effectively reduces unwanted swing or vibration of the disc. This new turntable is precisely machined from solid aluminum helping to minimize rotational inertia. This extra light turntable design also ensures optimal performance as required for high speed disc rotation. In combination with this turntable system, the VOSP mechanism provides extremely accurate data retrieval by positioning the laser optical axis at the very center of the data track. This design eliminates off axis tracking and off axis error correction. Word clock input is included for synchronization with the matching D-05, D/A audio converter or with any of Esoteric’s stand alone master clock generators. Optical tracking and data retrieval is processed by the same pick-up assembly as in the Esoteric model P-03 audio transport. The P-05 transport works with both CD and SACD software. For more information please see the PDF file indicated below.
P-05 / D-05 additional features;
- PCM digital audio up-conversion function (with D-05 DAC).
- PCM to DSD conversion function (with D-05 DAC).
- Native DSD mode for SACD playback (with D-05 DAC).
- Toroidal transformer for power supply.
- Remote control from the P-03.
- Output level control from the optional D-05 front panel and from the P-05 remote control (requires D-05).
