C1A Signature "CONVERTER"
Digital to Analog converter based on the best 24bit/192khz technology available with proprietary circuit and design. A custom power supply is incorporated with heavy protection from EMI/RFI and appropriate power supply treatment for low impedance. The tube output stage is isolated from digital radiation by the use of a separate power supply and a proprietary configuration of the tubes (Cathode follower with 12AX7 triodes (x2)). The new Signature version of the D/A converter incorporate a better power supply regulation for the converter and polypropylene capacitors for the tube output stage
C2A Signature "CONVERTER"
Two box design Digital to Analog converter based on the best 24bit/192khz technology available with proprietary circuit and design. One box is dedicated to the converter, output electronic and digital inputs, the second box contain a separate power supply with 6 transformers. This configuration provide an heavy protection from EMI/RFI radiation from the outside world and reduce the negative influence of mechanical vibration from the transformers. Each digital input use it own DIR for a lower level of jitter. A selectable upsampler is included for all inputs. The tube output stage is isolated from digital radiation by the use of a separate power supply and a proprietary configuration of the tubes
