Drive Taking full advantage of the built-in mechanism and putting all the know-how of the ultimate digital playback system SOULNOTE specializing in clock synchronization, it is hot, powerful, yet delicate and natural. Super Audio CD player that has both a sound field and a clear atmosphere.




* Power transformer Left and right independent grounding construction
The power transformer separates the digital system and analog system, and is mounted on independent side aluminum bases, and the vibration of the transformer is discharged from each base by one-point spike grounding. While avoiding cross-modulation by the two vibration sources, which is a weak point of the double transformer, the mixing of motors and digital noise into the analog power supply has been eliminated. The transformer base, which is very important for sound quality, has a sandwich structure with an aluminum side that is floated at three points by a titanium spacer, and adopts the optimum material, structure, and shape that eliminates resonance while avoiding dumping.




* SACD mechanical direct grounding construction
The SACD mechanism is mounted with a one-point spike grounding through a machined aluminum base. It is an ideal construction that directly discharges the vibration of the mechanism and determines the physical position of the mechanism.




* Spike floating top plate
The floating top plate structure used in the SOULNOTE 2nd series has been further evolved, and the top plate itself is grounded at three points to the spike receiver dug in the chassis with stainless spikes. In addition, by partially cutting the aluminum top plate to reduce the weight, meticulous tuning has been performed so that the sound quality approaches that without the top plate.




* Non-feedback circuit "Type-R Circuit" A
newly developed non-feedback circuit "Type-R Circuit" has been adopted for the analog circuit. It is a perfect balance voltage amplifier circuit consisting of only 4 high-frequency bipolar transistors and 8 resistors. The first stage is a differential synthesis without gain, and the second stage that generates the only gain is a single end for amplification to ground. Furthermore, by changing the output stage bias from LED to transistor thermal coupling, we succeeded in reducing the emitter resistance, which was 22 Ohms; in the past, to 1 Ohm. With a configuration that can eliminate power supply noise while being super simple, overwhelming drive power and high freshness stand out.




* Uses 4 ES9038PRO
The DAC chip uses 2 ES9038PRO per channel, for a total of 4 pieces. The unrivaled strong current output of 120mA per channel is an integral part of discrete non-feedback DACs. This current output is converted to voltage by a single IV resistor just before the first stage of the Type-R Circuit.




* Ultra-low jitter clock
The master clock output from the ultimate low-jitter DDS LMX2594 boasting 45fs perfectly synchronizes from the DAC to the SACD mechanism. Transparent and dynamic SACD playback by DAC-driven I2S full synchronization (128fs mode of ES9038PRO) without transmission via USB or LAN completely overturns the image of SACD so far. The S-3 has a built-in ultra-low jitter crystal, but it is possible to further improve the time axis accuracy by connecting an ultra-high performance external clock (10MHz). The high frequency relay is used for switching of a reference clock, and the addition of jitter is eliminated.




* Ultra-low loss glass tube sealing relay
The ultra-low loss glass tube sealing relay adopted from S-3 ver.2 is a high-frequency relay with transfer contacts found in the development process of the high-end non-feedback balanced preamplifier P-3. By using this as a master clock switching relay, which is the heart of the high-quality sound of the S-3, the sound field becomes even wider and clearer, especially in the depth direction. With extremely high resolution and organic expressiveness, music is played vividly.




* ZERO LINK
ZERO LINK is the ultimate link in the sense that "Aiming for high sound quality by eliminating asynchronous circuits from the D / A converter" established by SFORZATO and our company. By connecting to a network transport equipped with ZERO LINK, it is possible to build a network system that is completely synchronized with the clock on the DAC side, and by stopping the asynchronous circuit of S-3 ver.2, the sound quality is dramatically improved. Can be achieved.




* Giant power supply circuit
Most of the contents of S-3 are occupied by the power supply circuit. Not only analog power supply but also digital power supply is a non-feedback power supply with a large amount of high quality low magnification capacitors packed under the SACD mechanism.




* Foamed Teflon-coated copper single-wire wiring
For analog signal and power supply wires, a foamed Teflon-coated copper single-wire SOULNOTE reference cable is used. Furthermore, the contact is eliminated by soldering this directly to the board.


*NOS mode adoption We adopted
NOS (non-oversampling) mode which was adopted in D-2 and received high evaluation. In this mode, the pre-echo and post-echo observed in the impulse response of FIR oversampling do not occur.



Impulse output waveform in FIR oversampling filter
Pre-echo and post-echo are artificial "sounds" created by calculation from the previous and next data to interpolate the data, which makes waveforms such as sine waves look smoother. , The sound quality changes depending on the calculation algorithm, and ambiguity on the time axis is added.



Impulse output waveform in NOS mode
This is the waveform that can be realized for the first time in combination with a non-feedback discrete amplifier with extremely excellent transient response performance. Since the music waveform is a series of impulse waveforms with different heights, the NOS mode dispels the ambiguity of the time axis information, making it more realistic and natural sound quality and air for human hearing, which is extremely sensitive to the time axis. Brings a feeling.
* DSD (SACD) does not enter NOS mode.
Please take note that our units from SoulNote Japan are specially make for 230V region with CE certified which is very important !
