2. General technical manual
The
Recall II
is a CD-Player, where outstanding tonal quality meets a design and set
of features that conform to high-end demands.
This is exemplified by a high-quality drive – whose loader is guided by side stainless-steel
push rods – that ensures that there is no loss of (digital) musical information from the
start of playback onward. The digital signal is then passed on to a state-of-the-art 24-Bit
serial converter with a 192-KHz sampling frequency from Burr Brown, which converts it
into an analog signal.
The drive oscillator clocks the entire digital audio, so that clock-jitter is kept to a minimum.
The steep roll-off slope of the output filter effectively prevents any aliasing of the playback
signal.
The power is supplied by a specifically developed switched mode power supply, which
provides the CD-player with a steady flow of power – even with large fluctuations in
voltage - and eliminates the sound altering effects of electricity.
The 2mm strong steel-sheet casing is lined internally partially with absorption mats, so that
microphonic effects are kept from the sensitive electronics. The TRIGON suspension
absorber feet - whose principle of operation corresponds to that of a Belleville washer –
round off a systematic approach to prevent sound distortions through microphonic effects.
The wide range of media in use today doesn’t pose a problem for the
Recall II’s
high-quality technology and its audio-optimized drive: The
Recall II
is able to play
CD-Rs and CD-RWs. These should be of good quality, otherwise “dropouts“ may occur
during playback.
The
Recall II
is completely microprocessor controlled. It is possible to operate the
player itself directly (not all functions) as well as via IR-remote control
(Trigon
Director)
. The clearly laid out display – which can be dimmed and turned off by the
Director
- shows the current operating state.
The
Director
can also turn the CD-
player on and off.
