Welcome

Thank you for choosing AURALiC product. POLARIS is designed for music lovers seek-
ing for the highest levels of performance from a single compact box. It is a wireless
streamer, a music server, a DAC, a pre-amplifier with phono stage and a power amplifier
– the ultimate solution for your HiFi system.

High-End Wireless Streaming

POLARIS  utilizes  AURALiC’s  award-winning  Lightning  Streaming  Platform.
Launched  in  2014,  Lightning  Streaming  is  industry’s  first  streaming  solution  that
supports Quad-Rate DSD, PCM up to 32Bit/384K through Wi-Fi network. Lightning
Streaming  offers  several  innovative  and  unique  features  such  as

functions. This on-going platform is maintained, and continually developed

by AURALiC’s in-house software R&D team to ensure customers are regularly up-
dated with new features through the product’s automatic software update system.

17 Input Sources, More to Come

POLARIS can act as home music center for virtually all input source. It read music
stored on USB drive, internal hard disk, network shared folder and DLNA/UPnP mu-
sic server. By joint use with Lightning DS, you can also stream TIDAL, Qobuz and
listen to Internet Radio at any time. POLARIS’s AirPlay, Songcast and Bluetooth in-
puts provide alternative way to stream your favorite music from Apple
Music, Spotify and other service providers through smartphone or computer.

Hybrid Volume Control

AURALiC  is  introducing  another  innovative  technology:  Hybrid  Volume  Control  for
POLARIS. The Hybrid Volume Control uses both analog and digital volume control
together  for  optimum  audio  performance  and  the  best  possible  sound  quality.  The
analog  attenuators  reduce  the  signal  level  in  12dB  steps  whilst  the  DAC's  internal
digital volume control handles small amounts of volume change within each step. By
using this technology, the DAC chip always operates in the best performance range,
bringing much lower distortion, better dynamic range and high sound quality at low
volume levels.

Femto Master Clock

The dual-frequency Femto Master Clock inside the POLARIS is specially designed
and optimized for its ESS Sabre DAC chip: with one frequency for 44.1K and multi-
ple of 44.1K, and with another working frequency for 48K. This design makes PO-
LARIS to lock on with highest clock precision (equal to the VEGA’s “EXACT” mode)
at all time without dropouts.
