Så er Oppo Nuforce Editions i handlen

NuForce har taget en Oppo Blu-ray afspiller, og modificeret den. Målet har været at få den til at performe som en high end cd afspiller.

Vi har modtaget en kort meddelse fra Stereosound der bare er så spændende, at vi må bringe den, om end den er meget kort.

• Nuforce har udskiftet de analoge kredsløb, med deres eget design.
  
• Alle 8-kanaler er blevet re-designet til at levere ultimativ lydkvalitet.
  
• Det indbyggede liniære processorkredsløb leverer strengt reguleret og filtreret jævnstrøm til alle de analoge udgangstrin for at opnå den laveste støj og forvrængning.
  
• Avancerede analoge filtre fjerner faseskift inden for det hørbare bånd.

For Oppo elskere, er det jo en god nyhed, og for “god lyd” fantaster er det jo en fantastisk nyhed.

Her er hvad Studiosound skriver på deres egen side (engelsk)

All NuForce Blu-ray players are based on OPPO’s players. These NuForce Edition players are sold by NuForce only. – Note that all Blu-ray transports are noisier than the transport in a high-end CD player such as NuForce CDP-8. Extracting high-quality audio from Blu-ray players can be problematic in that the HDMI signal format interleaves video and audio data into a single transmission medium. While a convenient means of transferring A/V data between components, the process of combining these signals invariably imparts a level of digital jitter to the audio data sometimes as high as seven nanoseconds. For the purpose of comparison, a good CD player’s jitter specification is in the picosecond range, i.e., three orders of magnitude less. In practical terms, it is difficult to decode HDMI audio without employing extensive re-clocking circuits, thus inflating the cost of a good HDMI audio pre-processor. The simplest, most cost-effective way of dealing with the analog audio issue is at its source. And this is what we have accomplished in the NuForce BDP-93NE and BDP-93NXE. By replacing the analog output circuit board with a proprietary design, the 93NE and 93NXE delivers the highest possible levels of the natural, beautiful sound that has long since established NuForce?s enviable reputation. We?ve every confidence you’ll agree that the NuForce BDP-93 Xtreme Edition equals or exceeds the performance of the world?s best digital audio disc players. NuForce BDP-93 Edition player (MSRP $899) and 93NE upgrade board (MSRP $400).

Features:

? All 8-channels have been re-engineered to deliver ultimate audio performance.

? Onboard linear processing circuitry delivers highly regulated and filtered DC power to all analog output stages for lowest noise and distortion performance.

? output stage designed to avoid the need for a signal-degrading muting circuitry.

? Advanced analog filters eliminate phase shifting within the audible bands.

? High performance op-amps for a warm, vibrant, seductive sound.

? The 93NE board’s sonic goal was for 12AX7-type triode characteristics without tubes. NuForce BDP-93 Xtreme Edition (MSRP $1399) and 93NXE upgrade board (MSRP $900) offer all the features of 93NE plus:

? A sophisticated clocking scheme to suppress jitter for all eight channels. An ultra-stable VCXO generates an audio clock that is completely asynchronous from the transport’s clock. The result is a theoretical jitter specification of < 3ps (RMS)(PCM data only) ? jitter so low that our test equipment cannot measure it.

BDP-93NE Specifications A special ‘minimal phase shift filter’ is used in the audio band to preserve the best sound quality. This filter has a gentle roll off curve to minimize phase shift. FR spec: +/- 3dB from 15-50kHz. Supported sample rates: 44.1, 48, 88.2, 192kHz, 16-24-bit
