Some things you may need to know
about the NOS design before purchasing:?
1AMany facts not commonly known
about the NOS design :
In the 1970'S, the first generation
of CDP were released , and they used an NOS design .
"NOS" stands for "Non Oversampling". Using a NOS design, specs are
ordinary because the limited signal bit depth affects THD and S/N.
Despite the fact that quantization
noise affects S/N, the R-11 mk2 still achieves very low noise
levels, much better than most tube amplifiers and turntables, and
much like a modern OS DAC .
To get better specs on paper, many
designs apply a quite complex LC analog filter after the D/A
conversion. But the LC filter usually does not have a flat response
and the large phase shift it causes also affects sound quality
considerably.
In 1980's, oversampling and FIR
filter were invented, and allowed improving sound quality compared
to applying an LC filter. Good specs were obtained on paper, so this
technology has been largely applied ever since.
But some people still liked the sound
of the NOS design better and felt that without the extra processing,
it did a better job at preserving the original character of the
sound, like in real world, trusting their ears rather than specs.
Therefore if you want good specs, the
NOS design definitely is not for you.
2ADiscrete servo stabilized power supply:
Using the latest
designed discrete servo stabilized power supply to feed the digital
circuits, the noise level is comparable to that of a battery, but
without the dry and thin sound characteristics of it, and thus the
product's operating temperature is significantly lower than that of
the previous model. The analog circuit are still powered by a pure
class-A regulated power supply for the best sound results (New upgrade)
3ATube-like sound:
The basic NOS
design has a tube-like sound or a vinyl feeling . It may have to do
with distortion being similar to these, typically between 0.01% and
0.1%. Some expensive USA-made DAC has even inferior specs but a lot
people consider it has a beautiful sound .
The R-11 mk2 distortion + noise level is
similar to a vacuum amplifier or turntable and to the expensive USA-
made DAC referred upon.
THD+N <0.04% (Digital input, output 2V, full scale )
Frequency band -3DB at 90K (outputting 2V, full scale )
4APlease note :
The R-11 mk2
signal path is very simple, the USB and spdif receiver directly
outputs an IIS signal to the R-2R decoders (DA-8s) without any other
component involved, and a non-muting design is applied. Therefore,
when changing tracks, there will be a weak popping sound, but much
weaker than with the previous generation R2R 11.
R2R-11 mk2 feature:
1. 4 built-in 24bit R-2R decoders (2 push-pull channels) and 2
native DSD decoders.
2. USB input with optional galavanic isolators.
3. High-quality R-core transformer power supply.
4. 9-group of power supplies overall for the different components.
The R-2R modules and analog output stages are powered by the 3
groups of pure class-A PSUs. 3 groups of ultra-high speed chip PSUs
and 2 groups of servo-controlled discrete PSUs are used for the
digital parts . The control module and volume boards use a separate
PSU to avoid any contamination to the digital and analog signal
components.
5. The unit has two gain levels, 12DB on low gain to drive
headphones with over 95DB sensitivity, and 22DB on high gain, enough
to drive the HE6, which has a 85DB sensitivity. There are two
jumpers built-in allowing an additional 6DB to drive headphones with
even lower sensitivites.
6, Relay volume control boards built-in for accurate channel balance
and transparent sound . 0.1% resistors are used in parallel to
increase the effective tolerance to 0.05%.
7, Two jumpers are built-in to optionally make the sound warmer .
8, Fully discrete transistor amplifier design, applying the ACSS
technology .
9, Features a Neutrik headphone output jack
