Significant Design Features:
· Internal upsampling with 24-bit/352.8kHz processing
· Proprietary M-ProDrive transport mechanism with in-house developed hardware & software
· BurrBrown PCM1793 high-resolution 24-bit/192-kHz DAC and 8X oversampling digital filter
· RS-232 port for (i) full unsolicited bidirectional feedback and (ii) firmware updates
· IR input for external control
· SimLink controller port for 2-way communications with other compatible MOON components
· All digital and analog audio circuitry mounted on a single circuit board, each with their own
respective ground plane, to minimize signal path lengths and eliminate any potential for
interference and signal degradation
· MOON Alpha Clocking System for exceptionally low intrinsic jitter levels
· Advanced analog signal path using a DC servo circuit and proprietary analog filter
· PCB w/ pure copper tracings & gold plating that yields low impedance characteristics
· Top cover is mounted with countersunk screws
· Optimized selection of very high quality electronic components
· Designed to be powered up at all times for optimal performance
· Includes CRM-2 remote control.
