April Music Eximus CD10 - Manual (Page 3)

True 192 kHz upsampling
The EXIMUS CD10, utilizes a true 24 Bit/192kHz 'upsampler' DAC chip with Full Balanced Output, resulting in a significantly improved resolution,
dynamics and soundstage of the musical recordings, even with standard 16 Bit/44.1kHz CDs.
In order to achieve the improvement in sound quality and mechanical reliability, and compared to many other upsampler DAC that use Digital Signal
Processing (DSP) software, the CD10 applies a hardware based upsampling technology to manage the Digital to Analogue conversion process. A
selectable sampling rate switch enables the user to choose between Bypass, 96 kHz or 192 kHz during play. This enables the user to listen to a
variety of different sound reproduction and choose the format most suitable for each CD, each recording.
Digital Inputs
The digital input section of CD10 consists of 1 Coaxial and 2 Toslink. Connected to any of these three inputs, DVD, LD, MD or any component with
digital output up to 24Bit/96kHz can be upsampled to 24Bit/192kHz.
Power Supply
There are 2 separate toroidal power transformers feeding power to the digital and the analog sections independently. Separate Toroidal
Transformers for analog and digital circuits. Separate Stages of power regulations for each function blocks. High quality electronic components and
gold plated RCA connectors.
Transport Mechanism
The CD10 uses the VAM1202 transport mechanism from Philips. This model employs the latest available technology for improved readability and is
compatible with any CD, CD-R format.
The Product
The appearance of the CD10 alone is a clear indication that this is no ordinary CD player. Taking a closer look inside the CD10 reveals the true
dedication of talented audio engineers. Ultimately through the sound transpires the true love of music and devotion to faithful sound reproduction.
The CD10 is a direct result of innovative thinking! Innovative thinking is thinking outside the convention, it is challenging the accepted norm.
Regardless of the digital format war, the CD10 will provide you with a sound reproduction that is one step closer to achieving that musical nirvana,
the true sound.
