Crane Song Solaris

D/A Converter and Monitor controller

• Inputs: AES, SPDIF, Optical, USB sample rates up to 192K.
• Outputs: Main output has discrete output amplifiers with a stepped attenuator, the max output is +24dbu.
• The secondary output, also balanced has a max fixed output of +18dbu, balanced.
• The Headphone Amplifier has its own stepped attenuator.
• Mute: cuts off the main outputs and Solaris powers up muted.
• The Function display is done with an LCD showing, the source, gains, and the sample rate. It also has level meters.
• The Quantum DAC is the 5th generation design from Crane Song
• The Quantum DAC uses 32 bit converters and ASRC for jitter reduction up sampling to 211KHz.
• The reference clock has less then 1pS and a proprietary reconstruction filter for accurate time domain response.
• The clock’s jitter measured from 10Hz to 20KHz is typically 0.045pS.
