Absolute CD Player
This CD player from the Absolute line draws on the advanced technologies of our prestigious Heritage series, incorporating a multi-DAC conversion topology that delivers breathtaking dynamics and stunning detail.
It features a high-performance Teac CD mechanism, flawlessly synchronized by an ultra-precise quartz. To enhance versatility with digital sources, the system includes a USB input compatible with PCM/DSD formats. The stereo DAC, integrated on a single board, drives two conditioning circuits arranged in a true dual-mono topology, breathing new life into every note of digitized music.
The digital-to-analog converter technology is based on the 4-1-1-1 topology, inherited from our prestigious Heritage series.
This architecture incorporates four synchronous DACs operating in current mode, meticulously grouped into a single ensemble to enhance the signal dynamics during the current-to-voltage conversion. Once converted to voltage, the signal is routed to the “Revival Filter,” which breathes life and vitality into every note. Thereafter, it is directed to the output driver, featuring an output impedance of 75 Ω per polarity, which conditions the signal to ensure flawless transmission to the preamplifier.
The Revival Filter restores the breath of life to the sound that it had before digitization, thanks to a meticulous attention that has been dedicated to phase optimization.
To ensure compatibility with a broad range of preamplifiers, the output level can be selected digitally within the DAC, offering three settings: “High”, “Med” and “Low”
