Description
Saturn-R
The Saturn-R CD-DAC player offers complete
flexibility and integration into any system. Essentially two products in one,
the Saturn-R houses a high specification transport and independent
DAC circuit. Both sections are fully remote controllable via the supplied
Solaris remote handset.
You will find plenty of connectivity options, all at the
highest possible resolution up to and including 192kHz-24Bit. The Saturn-R has
two optical inputs, two Co-Axial inputs, a fully asynchronous USB and an added
‘direct’ digital output from the CD playback section.
This ensures the Saturn-R integrates perfectly
into any system and provides the perfect partner for the Rega Elicit-R integrated
amplifier.
CDP Features
The Saturn-R uses our proven digital to analogue
converter and analogue output amplifier technology coupled with a pair of
Wolfson WM8742 digital to analogue converter IC’s. The Saturn-R has
improvements to the CD section power supply which was a result of the research
& development of our reference Isis CD player along with the improved
microcontroller and display drivers.
Technology
The Saturn-R uses a high stability master clock
and high capacity power supply in the CD circuitry, high performance PLL
digital interface receiver, isolated digital inputs and high performance power
supply architecture in the DAC circuitry. Signal switching between the CD and
DAC functions are performed in the digital to analogue converter stage. The
signal path of the CD section in CD mode is kept to a minimum.
USB 192kHz-24bits asynchronous
The DAC USB input has been improved with asynchronous
operation at sample rates of 44.1 to 192kHz with a bit rate of up to 24bits.
The USB input has the same galvanic isolation as used in the Rega DAC-R.
The USB uses dedicated drivers in the computer, enabling full ASIO operation,
thus eliminating signal degradation caused by generic windows based drivers.
Saturn-R XMOS USB DRIVER V2.15.0
Before you can use the USB function of the Saturn–R you
must first download the Rega USB Windows driver and install it on your PC.
Located under ‘ Product Downloads’ on this webpage.
Follow the instruction for installation. Once installed, USB
will be ready to use. This driver is not required for MAC OS.
PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR SYSTEM IS CONFIGURED CORRECTLY TO
OUTPUT HIGH RESOLUTION FILES WITHIN YOUR CHOSEN AUDIO/MEDIA PLAYBACK SOFTWARE.
If your PC does not default to the connected USB audio
device you must select the XMOS AUDIO DEVICE FROM THE DROP DOWN LIST.
