forward thinking technology
The combination of 192kHz/24-bit converters,
fully upgradable operating software stored in
FLASH memory, the TAGtronic Communications
Bus, a powerful 32-bit Digital Signal Processor
(DSP) and 16-bit microcontroller means that the
AV32R is ready for any movie format – today,
tomorrow and well into the future.
Additionally, your AV32R can be upgraded with
new software to decode future home cinema
formats as and when they become available.This
operating software will be downloadable from
the Internet via a PC for home installation using
a special cable (not included with the AV32R).
96kHz, 24-bit conversion, 32-bit
processing
The ultra-wide dynamic range and high-
resolution recordings available through the latest
recording media such as DVD require highest-
precision digital to analog converters.
The use of 24-bit converters ensures that even
the loudest transients can be reproduced whilst
keeping noise below the ambient level.
Conversion rates of up to 96kHz are possible to
support high-resolution recordings and a high-
precision 32-bit floating point processor (capable
of an astonishing theoretical 192dB dynamic
range) is used for all internal signal processing.
analog signal processing
To guarantee an excellent performance from
analog sources (such as a VCR or an analog
satellite receiver), all analog signals are carefully
processed, then converted to the digital domain
using a 96kHz/20-bit analog to digital
converter.The signal is then processed
completely in the digital domain, with the
exception of the volume control, to allow for
speaker position variations and to enhance the
ambience and spatial quality of the audio output
when TAG McLaren Surround mode is selected.
