FEATURES: Unprecedented Sound Clarity: The system's sophisticated digital processing and asynchronous interfaces ensure that sources cannot corrupt, modify, or color the original signal. Asynchronous System Controller (ASC2): Not just a digital-to-analog converter, the ASC2 is a master clock/controller. It's an all-digital, asynchronous controller that safeguards the audio signal from digital, networked, and analog sources. Ultra-Low Noise Master Clock Circuitry: This key feature of the ASC2 ensures that phase noise and jitter are maintained at extremely low levels, resulting in pure sonic performance. Multiple Audio Inputs: The ASC2 handles all kinds of audio inputs, including networked audio UPnP Ethernet, USB2, SPDIF/AES digital inputs, and an analog line input. Mono PowerStream (MPS1): Specializing in ultra-low noise clocking and digital-to-analog conversion, this monoblock design combines Bel Canto's class A amplifier stages with a custom 1200-watt power buffer. High-Performance Monoblock Design: The MPS1 features an advanced segment fully balanced mono DAC that uses a blend of multi-bit and delta-sigma technologies, all in a chassis design that ensures maximum performance. Solid High-Grade Billet Aluminum Construction: This strong and durable material contributes to both the unit's aesthetic appeal and its ability to minimize interference from external noise sources. BENEFITS: Exceptional Sound Reproduction: It ensures that the music can be entirely communicated as it was intended by the artist, without any loss in details or nuances present in the original recording. Versatility: Capable of connecting to all sources, from networked audio to standard digital inputs without sacrificing its top-tier functionality. Ease of Use: It features an easy-to-read programmable display, and users can control the volume and input selector through a rotating wheel, a custom remote control, or an iOS app. Impressive Dynamic Range: The MPS1, combined with the unique Phantom PowerSystem design and our custom amplifier stages, provides unparalleled audio experience with less than 0.0005% distortion and 130dB of dynamic range. Noise Elimination: The ST fiber interconnect electrically isolates the ASC2 from the rest of the system, preventing external noise from affecting the quality of your audio. Integration of Technologies: This synergy helps eliminate potential signal loss, to ensure an incredibly detailed, fast, and musical sound that remains true to the original recording. Elegant Design: Its high-grade solid billet aluminum shows a modern look and feel, beautifully blending with any décor. Ease of Compatibility: It seamlessly integrates into various systems with different signal sources, providing maximum flexibility to the user. Musical Discovery: With their custom iOS app, SEEK, you can access and control playlists, favorite tracks, and stations globally.
