Music Streamers
Opening a window to music world on your desktop. A new experience of network audio starts with the NT-505-Xthat inherits our audio design know-hows and Internet technologies.Features at a glance Hi-Res audio playback supporting DSD512 (22.5MHz) and PCM 768kHz/32bit PCMDSD128 (5.6MHz) and PCM 192kHz/24bit Network streaming from NAS/PCESS Technology ES9038 Q2M converter each for left and right channels7 types of PCM digital filtersUp-conversion up to 24.5MHz DSD and 384kHz/32bit PCMDual on-board clocks for 44.1kHz and 48kHz frequencies10MHz external clock inputSupports MQA decodingSpotify, TIDAL, and Qobuz music subscription services*1Roon ReadyFront USB port supporting Hi-Res playback from USB flash driveBluetooth® receiver supporting LDAC™, Qualcomm® aptX™ HD, AAC and SBCOriginal TEAC-HCLD2 enhanced-current output buffer circuitDual monaural circuit designDual toroidal-core power transformers for each channelTEAC-QVCS quad volume control system1/8" (3.5mm) 4-pole stereo headphone jack supporting ground-separate driveFull-dot OLED display with dimmer functionNewly-developed “Stressless Foot” design with three support pointsSemi-floating design Top PanelBulk Pet*2 USB transferring technology with four transfer modes for various sound charactersFree TEAC HR Audio Player for Windows/MacFree TEAC HR Streamer app for iOS/Android devicesESS Technology ES9038 Q2M high-performance DAC supports resolutions up to 22.5MHz DSD and 768kHz/32bit PCMWe have employed one DAC chip, a crucial component for digital audio, in each of the stereo channels. The ESS Technology ES9038Q2M SABRE32 Reference DAC we use has a strong reputation in the high-end audio market. Using 32-bit HyperStream® II DAC architecture and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator (both of which are ESS original technologies), an outstanding dynamic range is realized, and linearity is increased in the D/A conversion. As a result, clear and accurate audio playback with superior dynamic characteristics has been made possible.Dual monaural circuit design and fully-balanced designA dual monaural circuit configuration is used throughout, from the power supply (including power transformers), to the D/A converters in the digital section and the Analog output stage. From the high-performance D/A converters to the massive toroidal-core power transformers, each element is configured for single channel processing. This prevents mutual interference effects while reproducing a rich acoustic expressiveness. In addition, the Analog audio signals of both the left and right channels are processed in full balanced mode soon after the D/A converters all the way to the output terminal, contributing to an improved S/N ratio and extended dynamic range.This allows the fantastic sense of air that Hi-Res formats possess to be processed and conveyed without any losses.Support for popular and convenient network functions, including OpenHome and Roon ReadyCommon control apps that support OpenHome can be used with the NT-505-X, which also supports this platform. Moreover, playlists on the NT-505-X can be managed using TEAC HR Streamer and other control apps that support OpenHome. Gapless playback is also supported.With support for Roon Ready, functions provided by RAAT (Roon Advanced Audio Transport), including high-quality audio playback, easy and convenient operation using apps, and multi-room synchronized playback, can be used without limits.* Support for Roon Ready will be added in a firmware update made available after product release.Supports Spotify Connect, TIDAL, Qobuz, and TuneInBy connecting the unit to a home network using a LAN cable, music files saved on NAS music servers and computers can be accessed and played back. In addition, this unit also supports the Spotify, TIDAL, and Qobuz subscription Internet music streaming services. These enable listening to tens of millions of lossless CD-quality (44.1kHz/16bit) music tracks.MQA decoder for master quality streamingIn order to achieve an Analog waveform closer to the original signal, the NT-505-X supports MQA decoding while also supporting high sampling rate Hi-Res formats like DSD512 (22.5MHz) and PCM 32bit/768kHz. The MQA decoder is a totally new technology that controls Analog waveforms with excellent precision (as fine as 5 microseconds) and it reproduces sound in a manner that is perceived to be as close as possible to the original (to human hearing).Furthermore, a high-efficiency compression algorithm makes huge Hi-Res audio files compact in size, so you will be able to enjoy Hi-Res audio sources regardless of the speed of your Internet connectionHigh-quality wireless audio streaming via Bluetooth®In addition to conventional SBC and AAC codecs, the NT-505-X also supports LDAC™ (24bit/96kHz Hi-Res audio transmission), and Qualcomm® aptX™ HD, a codec that uses 24bit/48kHz format transmission. These allow you to playback playlists on your smartphone and tablet wirelesslyHi-Res audio playback from USB flash driveThe USB port on the front panel allows you to playback Hi-Res audio formats including DSD128 (5.6MHz) and PCM 24bit/192kHz downloaded from Internet or digitally recorded with the SD-500HR.Dual onboard clocks for 44.1k and 48kHz, and an external clock inputInstead of referencing to an unstable and noisy PC clock during USB audio playback, a more accurate and on-board clock is generated by a high-precision, low phase-noise, audio-grade crystal oscillator for USB asynchronous transfer mode. The NT-505-X accommodates two on-board clocks exclusively for 44.1kHz and 48kHz sampling frequencies and applies the appropriate one to incoming digital signals - those that are multiples of 44.1k or 48k - to reproduce identical sound to the original by eliminating jitter effects on the audio signal.In addition, an external 10MHz clock input is also provided, to synchronize with an even higher-precision master clock generator, such as the TEAC CG-10M/CG-10M-A, for yet further upgraded audio playback with excellent sound quality.Up-conversion up to 384kHz/32bit PCM and 24.5MHz DSDEmploying RDOT-NEO (Refined Digital Output Technology NEO), a fluency algorithm that renders digital audio signals smoothly, the NT-505-X up-converts PCM digital signals up to 384kHz/32bit PCM and 24.5MHz DSD. With the up-conversion function activated, you will hear an improvement in quality, even with music that you are familiar with."Bulk Pet" USB transfer technology for enhanced audio qualityWhen transferring large volumes of digital data for Hi-Res audio sources through USB cables using conventional isochronous transfer mode, large variations can occur in the processing loads of the sending computer and the receiving USB DAC.This can cause sound to drop out and other problems to occur. However, with our new USB transmission technology - dubbed "Bulk Pet" - a fixed amount of data is transmitted constantly, levelling out the processing burden on both devices and contributing to stable data transmission.Changing the processing burden on the computer directly affects audio quality so users can select the setting they prefer (from four transmission modes).?"Bulk Pet" is a registered trademark of Interface Corporation. For more information about "Bulk Pet", please visit the Interface Corporation website.7 types of PCM digital filtersThere are seven types of PCM digital filters, allowing you to apply the filter that best matches the file format or type of music you're listening to. The filter can be changed at the touch of a button on the remote control, allowing you to enjoy the different sonic nuances of each filter.Dual high-capacity toroidal-core power transformersThe dual monaural theme continues. Two over-sized high-capacity toroidal-core power transformers are employed in the NT-505-X, supplying stable, individual current sources for each of the left and right channels. This means neither channel will be affected by changes in the power consumption of the other during digital processing.NT-505-XAnalog output circuits have been further refineImproved TEAC-HCLD2 enhanced-current output buffer amp circuitWe employed the TEAC-HCLD 2 for the analog output circuit. This is a further improved version of the TEAC-HCLD circuit enhanced-current output buffer amp that increases crucial current output capacity (HCLD: High Current Line Driver). This model now uses line buffer ICs with extremely high current output capacity. By using a positive-negative two-circuit structure for each channel, drive can be differential with balanced output and parallel with unbalanced output. Transmitting audio signals without degrading their dynamism becomes possible with increased current supply capacity.TEAC-QVCS four-circuit-structure high-precision volume control newly incorporated for preamp circuitsTEAC-QVCS (Quad Volume Control System) is used for the volume circuit. This electronic volume control is a variable gain amp type comprised of four discrete circuits for left, right, positive and negative (L+, L?, R+, R?). By placing the variable gain amp volume control, which processes in analog, in the audio signal path on the circuit board, issues with noise resulting from diverging wiring are avoided.Furthermore, this TEAC-QVCS enables volume adjustment in 0.5dB increments, allowing you to set the perfect volume for your audio system or headphones.Carefully crafted line amp section can also be used as a headphone amplifierThe improved TEAC-HCLD2 circuit also has high drive capability as a headphone amp enabling it to maximize the potential of a variety of types of headphones, starting with 600Ω high-impedance models. In addition, the NT-505-X supports the Ground Separate connection by separating circuit ground on both Left and Right channels from the amplifier section to the headphone jack, to improve channel separation that is crucial for headphone listening, while delivering clear sound with wide visible sound stage.NT-505-XPhysical design with extreme attention to detailAll-metal enclosure provides both vibration resistance and a stylish appearance in an A4 footprint that can fit on a deskSince the entire body is constructed from metal panels that are resistant to external noise, intrusion of electromagnetic noise generated by computers and other devices is suppressed. A clean internal environment with little noise has been realized even in conditions that are difficult for audio equipment. Furthermore, 8mm-thick aluminum panels covering both sides of the all-metal chassis provide a strong and stable structure that prevents twisting and bending. Moreover, being the size of an A4 page* (viewed from above), the unit can be placed on a desk, side table or other small space.*This excludes the connectors, knobs and other protrusions.Symmetrically laid out XLR and RCA output jacksThe NT-505-X is equipped with both balanced and unbalanced Analog audio outputs. A pair of XLR connectors and another pair of RCA connectors - each gold-plated - are symmetrically laid out, hinting at the dual monaural arrangement inside, and allowing a wide range of possible audio configurations. A wide-spaced pitch layout for the RCA outputs accommodates professional grade plugs with large-diameter shells. The NT-505-X has a total of 5 digital inputs: USB audio, coaxial, optical on the rear panel, and a combination jack on the front panel (for coaxial and optical, supporting PCM 24bit/192kHz and DSD64 (2.8MHz) in DoP format).Newly-developed Stressless Foot designOur newly-developed original Stressless Foot design with three support points enables stable placement of the unit so that it is not impacted by slight irregularities in the surface beneath it. Compared to the original feet used in previous designs, these feet are only partially fixed to the chassis. This design was developed based on the concept that by allowing the feet to vibrate freely, more natural sound reverberations could be achieved. The tops of the conical feet, which are made of machined steel, are attached so that they hang from the bottom of the chassis and swing freely when the unit is lifted. While maintaining a sense of placement like that of the pin-point spiked feet used by previous models, this design enables more natural rich reverberations.Semi-floating design Top PanelA semi-floating structure is newly used for the top panel. It has achieved a sound with an excellent sense of openness.Free TEAC HR Audio Player software for DSD512 playback on both Windows and MacThe next-generation Hi-Res formats, DSD512 (22.5MHz) and PCM 768kHz/32bit are supported via the TEAC HR Audio Player software for Windows and Mac. This software guarantees the best available playback quality with any combination of audio format and computer configuration via a single USB cable. All the user has to do is choose the NT-505-X from the pull-down menu showing target output devices. The TEAC HR Audio Player is downloadable from TEAC's web site, and is completely free to use.Free TEAC HR Streamer app for iOS/Android devicesSupporting Hi-Res audio formats up to 5.6MHz DSD and 192kHz PCM, this free app for iOS and Android devices allows you to control wireless streaming music playback from a device, NAS, computers and the Internet, along with rich graphic information such as album artwork.* Wi-Fi network is required to use the App

The combination of Dirac Live Room Correction and Dirac Live Bass Control enables the M66 to deliver more accurate in-room performance than any two-channel component ever offered.With its elegant aluminum casework, super-smooth digital volume control, and vibrant 7″ touchscreen, the M66 exudes class and quality. Visually, sonically, and technologically, it’s an ideal match to NAD’s award-winning Masters M23 power amplifier. Of course, the Masters M66 BluOS Streaming DAC-Preamplifier can be paired with any high-performance amplifier.Music EverywhereFeaturing a high-resolution network streamer based on the acclaimed BluOS multi-room music-management system, the M66 provides access to more than 20 streaming services, including several that offer lossless and high-resolution audio. Using the intuitive BluOS app on a smart device or personal computer, listeners can play music from their favourite streaming service, their personal music libraries, and thousands of Internet radio stations, in resolution up to 24-bit/192kHz. Like all BluOS-enabled components, the M66 has full MQA decoding and rendering capability.With BluOS, you can listen to music in just one room; or share music over your home network with up to 63 additional BluOS-enabled components from NAD and other hardware partners. The M66 integrates easily with home-control systems from Control4, Crestron, ELAN, RTI, URC, and others. Listeners can also control playback by voice using Amazon Alexa or Apple Siri.Perfect ResponseThe M66 integrates Dirac Live Room Correction and Dirac Live Bass Control. Connect the supplied calibrated microphone to the M66’s USB port and then launch the Dirac Live app on a smart device or personal computer. The app will walk you through the calibration process, and then generate correction filters that compensate for acoustic problems like standing waves and unwanted reflections. You’ll enjoy more textured bass, improved tonal accuracy, vastly improved clarity, and more focused imaging.In a first for a stereo component, the M66 features four balanced and four single-ended subwoofer outputs and integrates Dirac Live Bass Control, which allows independent calibration of multiple subwoofers. Dirac Live Bass Control optimizes subwoofer output in both the frequency and time domains, achieving a seamless blend between the subwoofer(s) and main speakers, and delivering smooth, consistent bass response through the entire listening area, not just in the sweet spot.Peak PerformanceAt the heart of the M66’s digital section are ESS Technology’s flagship Sabre DAC and ADC chips. These audiophile-grade designs are known for their exceptionally wide dynamic range, ultra-low noise and distortion, and outstanding time-domain performance.The M66 is the first component to feature NAD’s innovative Dynamic Digital Headroom (DDH) circuitry. When activated in the BluOS app, DDH eliminates digital inter-sample peak clipping distortion, which can occur during digital-to-analogue conversion with sudden high-frequency transients. The benefits are especially noticeable with percussion instruments: rim shots are more impactful but less strident; cymbals are more realistic and less splashy.For volume adjustment, the M66 employs an ultra-precise resistor-ladder control circuit. Compared to traditional analogue circuits, the M66’s digital volume control markedly reduces thermal and related distortions, maximises dynamic range, and more accurately matches left- and right-channel output across the entire volume range.By default, analogue signals are converted to digital so that functions like Dirac Live Room Correction and Bass Control are available with all sources. However, the M66 has a selectable Analogue Direct mode that bypasses all digital processing, and separate signal paths for analogue and digital sources. Internally, the analogue and digital sections are physically separated and shielded from each other with their own separate power supplies sections, so that analogue signals are unaffected by digital interference when Analogue Direct mode is engaged. This results in distinct volume attenuation, superb left and right tracking and very low noise.Connect EverythingWith its full suite of analogue and digital inputs, the M66 can accommodate all your source components. Vinyl fans will appreciate the M66’s ultra-quiet MM/MC phono stage, which features precise RIAA equalization, high overload margins, and an innovative circuit that suppresses the infrasonic noise that is always present with vinyl playback without affecting bass response. For TV and movie viewing, there’s an HDMI eARC port for connection to an HDTV. Other options include two coaxial and two optical S/PDIF inputs, an AES/EBU balanced digital input, two pairs of RCA line-level analogue inputs, and one pair of XLR balanced inputs.In addition to unbalanced RCA and balanced XLR outputs for connection to a power amplifier, the M66 has four unbalanced RCA and four balanced XLR subwoofer outputs. The M66’s dedicated headphone amplifier has very low output impedance and very high maximum output voltage, enabling it to drive demanding high-impedance studio monitor headphones. The M66 also has Bluetooth connectivity, with support for the AAC, LDAC, and aptX HD codecs.Future ForwardThe Masters M66 represents the pinnacle of what is technically achievable in a two-channel preamplifier today, and will maintain its technological leadership for decades to come. On the rear panel are two expansion slots that support MDC2, the latest generation of NAD’s Modular Design Construction future-proofing technology. As technology evolves, this will enable M66 owners to add new capabilities simply by inserting an MDC2 module into one of the slots.Everything about the NAD Masters M66 BluOS streaming DAC-preamp is intended to inspire pride of ownership: the gorgeous 7″ touchscreen, the elegant aluminium casework, and the silky-smooth digital volume control. With its leading-edge technology, unmatched versatility, and superb build quality, the Masters M66 is truly a masterpiece of sound.

Designed for use in a rack-based audio system, the CI 720 V2 is a complete stereo zone in itself. Incorporating the power of BluOS hi- res multi-room streaming with 2 channels of NAD’s Hybrid Digital Technology, this unit can be the backbone of a whole home music platform.With its unique “blade” form factor, six modules can be mounted to the RM 720 rack kit, meaning you get 6 stereo zones into just 3U of rack space, saving 50% of rack space against traditional format stereo streamers. Each unit is also thermostatically cooled with an air intake on the front to draw in cool air which is dispersed through the vents towards the rear of the unit so you can be confident of the CI 720 V2 having longevity in even the most challenging rack environments.NAD’s Hybrid Digital amplification, in this case a conservative, 2 x 60W into 8 ohm with customized Hypex UcD output stages, offers reliable power, with ultra- low distortion and high current output. Hybrid Digital is ideal for longer cable runs using thicker gauge cables. Being load invariant, it handles 4 ohm loads as easily as it does 8 ohms. Whether listening to background music at lower volumes or turning it up, NAD delivers a consistent, linear sound, which is clear, detailed and dynamic at all volume levels.One major benefit of using multiple stereo streamers in this format is single zone redundancy. If one unit should fail, none of the other zones are impacted, so the user can still enjoy their music in the rest of the property.Another benefit is that each CI 720 V2 also has dedicated analogue and digital inputs. Connectivity can be expanded via sister brand’s Bluesound HUB. Each module also has a subwoofer output and can be paired wirelessly over the network with a Bluesound PULSE SUB+.An IR input is also included for basic control, utilizing the IR learning function within the BluOS Controller app so you can learn commands from any 3rd party remote.Using the BluOS Controller app, you can stream from over 20 popular music services with playback of music at up to 24/192, all in one place, or you can cast directly from a mobile device via Apple AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect or Tidal Connect. The BluOS app can manage all external inputs and player grouping in an intuitive layout that’s easy to use.Smart Home Professionals can also integrate the CI 720 V2, or any other BluOS enabled devices with any of the major control systems, so access and playback to music can be managed in multiple ways.Stack multiple CI 720 V2s in the rack (up to 64 zones) to create a multi- room, multi- source audio system which combines fit and forget reliability with breathtaking quality and value. Mix these rack mountable players with other BluOS enabled devices, such as Bluesound speakers, NAD stereo integrated amplifiers or AV Receivers as needed to create an audio system that’s perfectly tailored to each project and maximizes the value and performance in every room.
Designed for use in a centralized audio system, the CI 580 V2 can be the backbone of your whole home music platform. With only one power supply and one Ethernet port for 4 zones you can simplify the rack wiring and power requirements.Each CI 580 V2 has the option of analogue or digital outputs for each zone as well as single analogue and digital inputs which can be shared across the 4 zones, connectivity can be expanded via sister brand’s Bluesound HUB.Using the CI 580 V2 as a source gives you the flexibility to either manage all of the additional audio inputs and groupings through the BluOS Controller app and pair with an amplifier, giving the freedom to choose the amplifier power and quality that’s best suited for the project.Contact closures are included for a doorbell as well as IR input and 12V triggers.Using the BluOS Controller app, you can stream from over 20 popular music services with playback of music at up to 24/192, all in one place, or you can cast directly from a mobile device via Apple AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect or Tidal Connect.Smart Home Professionals can also integrate the CI 580 V2, or any other BluOS enabled devices with any of the major control systems, so access and playback to music can be done in multiple ways.Stack multiple CI 580 V2s (up to 64 zones) in the rack and match with NAD rack mount amplifiers to create a multi-room, multi-source audio system which combines ‘fit and forget’ reliability with breathtaking quality and value.

DescriptionAs a specialized enhancement product, SIRIUS G2.1 stands as the fourth addition to the award-winning G2.1 Series of AURALiC products. As a system, the G2.1 stack, comprised of ARIES G2.1, VEGA G2.1, LEO GX.1 and SIRIUS G2.1 now represent one of the most advanced digital sources available for your high-performance system today. SIRIUS G2.1 improves and optimizes signals from all sources, whether they are high-resolution files or streams from an inferior source or format. With SIRIUS G2.1, compressed, lossy, and poor recordings all have the potential to be improved, thereby upgrading your overall experience. Because SIRIUS G2.1 utilizes an open standard protocol, it can also be connected to any brand of DAC, delivering a global variety of sample rates and formats among other functions and features. SIRIUS G2.1 will provide universal balance to a world of varied formats, resolutions, DAC chip topologies, and algorithm types.A Universal Approach to High-Performance Across All FormatsSIRIUS G2.1 stands to improve your listening experience by employing advanced processing techniques. Poorly made recordings and even early digital recordings can benefit from SIRIUS G2.1’s impressive processing firepower. This process optimizes less-than pristine recordings by resampling the signal in a manner that potentially improves upon the experience of listening to an inferior recording.Getting the Most From Your DACAll DACs are built with a “sweet-spot,” a point where each DAC circuit excels at a resolution or format. DAC circuits built for DSD playback sound better when playing DSD and PCM DAC topologies perform better when fed PCM. By resampling to a format within the DAC’s “sweet spot,” the chip is allowed to play to its strengths, by lessening the processing requirement of the DAC.A World FirstSIRIUS G2.1 provides multiple inputs and outputs, allowing you to connect to a variety of digital sources and DACs. AURALiC’s spirit of innovation continues to put forth market-first features, as exemplified by SIRIUS G2.1’s unique ability to deliver an upsampled DSD signal to any compatible USB DAC, the first product in the world to do so.Optimize by EqualizingThe most important factor affecting the quality of playback in your system is not the cables, components, or speakers, but instead the room in which you play your music. SIRIUS G2.1 can compensate for the room with its 8-band parametric equalizer feature, allowing you to optimize for your environment without spending tens of thousands on a complete room build or renovation.Perfect the ImperfectSIRIUS G2.1 offers a speaker placement function to compensate for real-world problems, allowing you to deal with barriers to perfect sound in the digital domain. While it’s necessary to place your speakers as best you can in the room first, our speaker placement function could mean the difference between poor and great sound in a less-than pristine environment.Resample Your ExperienceAll digital products contain some form of sampling engine. As a separate device, SIRIUS G2.1 sets itself apart by focusing all of its energy on digital signal processing strength, using advanced resampling techniques to convert between any and all sampling rates. You’ll be able to further customize the sound of your digital sources when you choose from four distinct digital filters thanks our very own Flexible Filter Mode Technology. All of the above is done with uncommonly low distortion levels, potentially down to a staggering -170dB, which will also help keep the SIRIUS G2.1 virtually invisible in the signal path.The Power of Digital ProcessingSIRIUS G2.1 is powered by the AURALiC Proteus G2 Co-Processing Platform; which harnesses a Xilinx XC7A200T FPGA chip at its heart, bolstered by 512 MB of DDR3 memory. This FPGA chip contains more than 200,000 logic cells and 740 DSP slices, all combining to provide unparalleled levels of data processing capability. SIRIUS G2.1’s computational power and efficiency are achieved in part because of the design decision to employ a dual-processing platform structure, which doubles capacity. While an AURALiC Tesla G1 handles hardware control, the Proteus G2 focuses its efforts on music data processing.Unity Chassis IIThe SIRIUS G2.1 chassis has been designed as a double enclosure, where an outer case made from high-grade aluminum is supplemented with an inner layer of copper. A high-mass base and enhanced four-foot multi-spring suspension system complete the quiet, noise defeating performance of the SIRIUS G2.1’s Unity Chassis II.Perfectly Balanced SIRIUS G2.1 internal circuits are physically distributed to enhance overall balance. And with specially designed foot spikes that dampen and absorb vibrations, the SIRIUS G2.1 is always rock-steady, for ultra-smooth signal delivery.Beautifully quietThe SIRIUS G2.1 introduces sophisticated galvanic isolation and Unity Chassis II techniques that drastically reduce the potential for electro-magnetic interference, for an extraordinarily pure, clean sound. Precise re-clocking reduces jitter, and brand-new galvanic isolation provides even more protection against EMI noise. The result is a whopping 80% reduction in noise levels.More to ControlSmart-IR is just that - a smarter solution for controlling your SIRIUS G2.1. As with all AURALiC products, Smart-IR allows you to control certain functions of the SIRIUS G2.1 from any number of different remotes you already own. For example, you may program a remote to quickly switch between the four different digital filters by assigning a filter to individual buttons on that remote. This function is easily accessible in the SIRIUS G2.1 menu structure and provides you with yet another way to control not just SIRIUS G2.1, but your entire G2/2.1 stack.An Integrated Family of DevicesBuilt around cutting-edge transfer protocols, more powerful processing, and enhanced isolation engineering, G2 and G2.1 are a new concept in component integration.

Description LEO GX.1, our reference master clock, continues providing trademark levels of performance in digital audio clocking. Offering “beyond-measurement” levels of precision, results detected while listening: a much wider sound stage, pinpoint instrumental accuracy, and dynamic range beyond expectation. By circumventing the DAC’s internal clock, shielding the unit from noise with an internal copper enclosure, and utilizing a new advanced multi-spring suspension system available on all G2.1 products, LEO GX.1 will dramatically enhance your listening experience. A Breakthrough in Digital System ClockingLEO GX.1, our reference master clock, continues providing trademark levels of performance in digital audio clocking. Offering “beyond-measurement” levels of precision, results detected while listening: a much wider sound stage, pinpoint instrumental accuracy, and dynamic range beyond expectation. By circumventing the DAC’s internal clock, shielding the unit from noise with an internal copper enclosure, and utilizing a new advanced multi-spring suspension system available on all G2.1 products, LEO GX.1 will dramatically enhance your listening experience.Traditional ClockingNormally, phase-locked loop circuits (PLL) in a DAC are used to synchronize its internal working signal with the more accurate incoming signal from a reference clock. But they’re noisy. And even though the working signal can be nudged a bit to match up with the reference signal, its frequency — and the precision of the analog waveform that’s based on it — is ultimately limited by the DAC’s own clock circuit. Direct-to-DAC DesignThanks to its unique Jitter-Free Operation, when the VEGA G2.1 joins forces with the LEO GX.1 these devices accomplish something extraordinary. Instead of merely synchronizing with the LEO GX.1, the VEGA G2.1 actually uses the exceptionally high frequency incoming clock from the LEO GX.1 directly — as its own working signal. In other words the LEO GX.1 bypasses the internal VEGA G2.1 clock circuit entirely, and drives waveform creation directly with its signal. No more PLL, and no more limitations.A New Description of PerformanceThe LEO GX.1 clock is so precise that existing benchmarks aren’t detailed enough to accurately represent what it can do. Instead, we use Allan deviation to describe the resolution of the LEO GX.1, which is like looking at phase noise closely enough to detect shifts of +/-1Hz or even +/-0.1Hz. The Allan deviation of the LEO GX.1 Reference Master Clock comes in at 2E-12 (at 1 second), which is equal to a 10MHz rubidium atomic clock with phase noise of +/-1Hz at -110dBc/Hz, or an amazing 500 times less jitter than an 82fs Femto clock oscillator.Clock StructureLEO GX.1 hardware starts with two temperature-controlled rubidium atomic reference clocks. Each is paired with an oscillator using stress compensated cut crystals, for thermal and mechanical resilience and low phase noise performance. The result is the LEO GX.1’s remarkably high signal frequencies: 90.316MHz for 44.1k-based audio signals, and 98.304MHz for 48k-based signals.Optical IsolationWe’ve gone to great lengths to reduce interference and noise in the new LEO GX.1, including the use of optical isolation techniques that keep systems physically separated from each other. Control signals from the processing circuit are sent to the clock circuit via fiber optic cables instead of electrical pathways, so the source of LEO GX.1’s impeccable timing is never disturbed.Unity Chassis IIThe LEO GX.1 chassis has been designed as a double enclosure, where an outer case made from high-grade aluminum is supplemented with an inner layer of copper. A high-mass base and enhanced four-foot multi-spring suspension system complete the quiet, noise defeating performance of the LEO GX.1’s Unity Chassis II. Perfectly BalancedLEO GX.1 internal circuits are physically distributed to enhance overall balance and performance. And its specially designed foot spikes dampen and absorb vibrations so the operation of its internal clock always starts with a rock-steady foundation.Dual Purer-Power Linear Power SuppliesWe’ve given the LEO GX.1 two of our ultra-quiet Purer-Power linear power supplies, galvanically isolating them from each other in the obsessive quest to reduce noise and create a pristine working environment. One Purer-Power supply feeds the LEO GX.1’s processing system, while the second powers the clock circuit. Interference between the areas is reduced to minimum, so there’s nothing to get in the way of LEO GX.1’s stellar performance.Realize Full PotentialThe LEO GX.1 is such a precise clock, running at very high frequency, you will need the best interconnect cable to realize its full potential. We created a cable specifically for LEO GX.1, made from 60GHz bandwidth military aerospace-grade material and connectors. Handmade and precisely tuned, it comes with a performance data report so you can be sure its specs are well capable of the task at hand.An Integrated Family of DevicesBuilt around cutting-edge transfer protocols, more powerful processing, and enhanced isolation engineering, G2 and G2.1 are a new concept in component integration.

As an added bonus, G2 and G2.1 products can be linked without worry, allowing them to work seamlessly, as one contiguous digital source for an astonishing musical experience.Whisper-Quiet Operation: Dual Galvanic IsolationTo avoid the interference associated with traditional open circuit designs, Galvanic Isolation in the ARIES G2.1 separates electrical circuits while allowing data to flow between them. We created two special high-speed galvanic isolators and configured them between the ARIES G2’s primary clocking, processing, and transmitting circuits. It’s a new level of protection against EMI that helps eliminate jitter, contributing to an unparalleled level of clarity.Dual Purer-Power Linear Power SuppliesWe’ve given the ARIES G2.1 two of our ultra-quiet Purer-Power linear power supplies, galvanically isolating them from each other in the obsessive quest to reduce noise for better sonic performance. Processing and display power is completely separated from sensitive audio components that operate on their own dedicated supply. Interference between the separate areas is reduced to zero, so all you’ll hear from the ARIES G2.1 is the music.Dual Femto ClocksDual Femto Clocks have got you covered no matter how you like to connect. With 2 separate, super-accurate clocks cycling on the order of quadrillionths of a second, you’ll enjoy extremely low jitter and better sound. One clock takes care of digital outputs, and the second regulates USB output, so you can be sure your musical signal is always rock-steady.Smart-IR ControlSmart-IR Remote Control lets your AURALiC device map its functionality onto any remote you’d like. Just let the device know which remote you prefer, and all of its operations (play/pause, volume control, track select, etc.) can be assigned to buttons just the way you like them.GalvanicUSBLike our ActiveUSB feature, GalvanicUSB bypasses the noisy USB power supply to improve sound quality. Precise re-clocking reduces jitter, and brand-new galvanic isolation provides even more protection against EMI noise. It’s the quietest and best-sounding USB connection we've ever offered.Dual Purer-PowerThe first of two Purer-Power supplies feeds the ARIES G2.1’s processing circuit, LCD display, and storage – whether internal or attached via USB. The second Purer-Power pathway is dedicated to sensitive audio components such as the Femto clock and USB audio output. Both power supplies are galvanically isolated from each other to ensure zero EMI interference between them.1GB Memory CacheOpen network connections and data fetching are prone to noise that can hurt the quality of your audio signal. The Tesla G2 hardware platform dedicates a whopping 1GB of RAM to the task of caching, lowering the frequency of open circuits and helping your music sound better.

The result is elimination of potentially induced jitter from the transport, canceling any negative effects from the quality of your chosen CD drive, potentially improving performance beyond what’s offered from competitors’ CD players.Dual 72fs Femto ClockWith a dedicated, low-noise 3uV power supply to minimize phase noise and keep it as quiet as it is accurate, our 72 Femto Master Clock is amazingly precise for less jitter, and immaculate sound. Its 72 femtosecond cycles — that’s 72 quadrillionths of a second — set a new standard for signal timing. Temperature-regulated for consistent performance, this clock is always there to keep things rock-steady.1GB Memory CacheOpen network connections and data fetching are prone to noise that can hurt the quality of your audio signal. The Tesla G2 hardware platform dedicates a whopping 1GB of RAM to the task of caching, lowering the frequency of open circuits and helping your music sound better.Flexible Filter ModeFlexible Filter Mode gives you a nuanced level of control over your audio output. Its various modes were developed using a combination of objective data models and subjective testing, with each mode offering a unique array of filters to match the sonic quality of the source. Whether it’s modes to tweak in-band ripple, out-band attenuation, ultrasonic filtering and more, you’ve always got the power to dial in the performance you want.ActiveUSBThe second generation of our ActiveUSB provides more than just asynchronous control over USB data for enhanced accuracy and precise re-clocking to reduce jitter. It also bypasses the USB power stream, using its own Purer-Power linear power supply instead. That means dirty USB power — and the EMI noise that comes along with it — is kept as far from the music as possible.Smart-IR ControlSmart-IR Remote Control lets your AURALiC device map its functionality onto any remote you’d like. Just let the device know which remote you prefer, and all of its operations (play/pause, volume control, track select, etc.) can be assigned to buttons just the way you like them.Purer-PowerThe Purer-Power linear power supply reduces DC current noise by as much as 90dB with its power purification module. Using a specially designed transformer and unique wiring that minimizes vibration, noise from Purer-Power is kept below 1uV across the audible spectrum, leaving you to discover the details in your music, down to the last bit.
