Each output channel has a balanced (XLR) and a single-ended (RCA) output connector.
D/A Conversion:
24-bit Ladder (8X oversampling - 4x oversampling for 96KHz sources). Two DACs
per channel (6 per board) for true differential operation.
Volume Control:
Theta proprietary switched resistor network in the analog domain.
Digital Filter:
Theta proprietary FIR filter running on Motorola 56362 DSP.
Single-Ended Output:
Summed from balanced signals, retains many of the advantages of the balanced
output.
Sample Rates Supported:
32KHz, 44.1 KHz, 48 KHz, 88.1 KHz, 96 KHz.
