- The flagship of Harman/Kardon from 1993. Elaborately built CD player.
- It has an anti-distortion concept RLS (Real Time Linear Smoothing), which splits the data stream to two 18-bit converters (PCM 61 K) per channel, one receives it time-shifted by one sample. The Burr-Brown converter is an R2R converter whose current output applied to the IC pin is fed back directly to the PIN of the internal operational amplifier in the standard Burr-Brown circuitry used in the HD7725. The differential signal of both converters, voltage-converted by the DAC's internal op-amps, mirrors the output waveform. Thus Harman fed a capacitor, which cannot change its voltage abruptly, but only steadily and thus smoothes the staircase-shaped converter output signal, i.e. the signal already corresponds almost exactly to the music signal. * After the converters there is an elaborate summing double differential amplifier stage, discretely constructed with single transistors. Both outputs, for the fixed and the variable, are discretely built with single transistors. Output coupling capacitors have 220 uF/25V (Panasonic "Pureism").
- General data:
- Dual 18-bit linear Burr Brown DA/converters (PCM61K) per channel in highest (K) selection, Real Time Linear Smoothing (RLS) technique (presumably first generation), tap of voltage output at converter IC.
- Discretely built output stage for fixed and variable RCA output.
- Differential amplifier discretely built!
Discrete, separate power supply for the digital and analogue range! Adjustable headphone amplifier, this has a dual OPV NJM4565 built in.
