Esoteric DV50S

Additional Details:

***REGION FREE*** - Esoteric DV50S in excellent condition. This unit supports Universal multichannel SACD/CD/DVD-A/DVD-V playback . It is on offer with Manuals, Remote and original packaging.

















Two upsampling filters, called RDOT and FIR offering:















RDOT: 705.6 kHz (16 times upconverting)





FIR: 352.8 kHz (8 times upconverting)





















RDOT+FIR: 1411.2 kHz (32 times upconverting)























As you can see, that is very serious upconverting. The definitions and descriptions of the filters are as follows:





RDOT: A digital filter using Fluency theory. It has a slow rolloff and a natural, extended audio characteristic.

































FIR: This filter has a sharp rolloff and firmly defined bass characteristics

RDOT+FIR: The combination allows the best characteristics of both filters to be used.













DSD: Selected automatically with SACD playback.





Read some of the reviews:

Positive Feedback, Karl Lozier – “I believe that the Esoteric DV-50s probably offers the best sound quality from CDs and SACDs of any less-than-ten-thousand-dollar universal player currently available”

Stereophile, Paul Bolin “Resolution was outstanding on all types of music... Soundstaging was steadily as deep, high, wide, and handsome as the sources would permit... The DV-50 communicated an exceptional sense of music's flowing lines and real meanings.”



Description: Universal multichannel SACD/CD/DVD-A/DVD-V player with choice of 8x oversampling FIR and upsampling RDOT low-pass digital filters, three digital outputs (not SACD), full set of video outputs, and both balanced and unbalanced analogue outputs. Maximum output level at 1kHz: 2.34V RMS (unbalanced), 5.1V RMS (balanced). Output impedance: 450 ohms (unbalanced), 665 ohms (balanced). No other specifications supplied.



Dimensions: 17.5" W by 6.5" H by 13.6" D. Weight: 46 lbs.
