REVIEWS & TECHNOLOGY
MATRIX AUDIO X-SPDIF
The MATRIX X-SPDIF is the
perfect converter to put between your music server/streamer and your existing
DAC. The Matrix X uses the highest quality components and clever design to convert
your USB digital audio signal to an spdif output that
runs directly to your Digital to Analogue converter, allowing you to use your
existing DAC with music streaming. Please call or email us if you want to
discuss adding music server/streaming technology to your system.
On
to a Higher Level…
The newly designed USB
Audio Class 2.0 asynchronous digital interface X-SPDIF 2, inherited the
excellent quality from its last generation. You can connect the digital audio
stream receive devices through the newly added IIS port, to avoid the loss
caused by digital signal protocol conversion. X-SPDIF 2 built-in high-quality
femtosecond clock and FPGA processing unit, it can playback up to 32bit/768kHz PCM audio stream and 1bit/22.4MHz DSD audio
stream.
More Powerful X-CORE
The new generation XMOS
U208 is an 8 core digital signal processing unit, it has powerful multi-core
and multi-threaded processing capabilities, and it is the industry's most
advanced USB Class 2.0 digital audio solution by far.
FPGA Control Centre
The strong XILINX SPARTAN
FPGA assist XMOS manage and assign the clock, processing DoP transcoding and
JITTER reduction for IIS port.
Audiophile
X-SPDIF 2 uses 2
Accusilicon high-quality femtosecond clocks as reference clock source, which
work at the state of 44.1kHz, 48kHz and their multiple
sample rate. The FPGA automatically control the frequency assignment and
switching, and the femtosecond clock has independent ultra-low noise LDO power
supply.
Multi-level LDO
The power supply units of
X-SPDIF 2 are constructed by multi-level, multi-group LDOs and solid
capacitors, they can filter out the superimposed noise from power supply effectively.
All the circuit powered by low noise or ultra-low noise LDO, which avoided the
hi-frequency switch noise caused by DC/DC circuit. You also can obtain high
quality power from USB bus.
Configurable
X-SPDIF
2 support different standard of IIS, it can compatible for different devices by
configuring the IIS definition switch. The DoP converting function transcode
DoP audio stream to native DSD stream output from IIS port.
External Power Supply
Supported
X-SPDIF 2 has a power
supply interface, you can add an external linear power
supply to it. It will disconnect the USB bus power automatically when you
connect it to an external power, then the X-SPDIF 2 can work with mobile
devices.
CNC Aluminium Chassis
In order to get the best
electromagnetic shielding performance, to minimize the impact of mechanical
vibration, X-SPDIF 2 still followed the CNC aluminum chassis design. We are not
afraid of the complicated design and process, to make sure your computer can
output high quality digital audio stream.
