Welcome
For years, the AURALiC VEGA has been a favorite among discriminating listeners. Now,
the all-new VEGA G2 keeps the sonic spirit of its predecessor alive by pushing the
boundaries of digital music. The VEGA G2 is a high-performance Digital Audio Processor
with a completely revamped architecture that excels at the conversion and streaming of
high-resolution digital music formats up to DSD512. The industry’s first signal-
independent “Master DAC,” the VEGA G2 is redefining the sound of digital.
Years of research and development have gone into the creation of the G2 line and the
all-new VEGA G2, resulting in engineering innovations that set a new standard for sound
quality. With a completely redesigned internal architecture focused on advanced
isolation techniques and a novel approach to clocking, the VEGA G2 is breaking new
ground in the world of premium digital processing. Advanced galvanic isolators and
always-in-control, hyper-accurate Dual 72 Femto clocks contribute to the extraordinary
clarity and precision of the VEGA G2.

Jitter-Free Operation
The union of AURALiC’s Lightning OS, the Tesla Platform and our 72fs Femto Master
Clock leads to a new trick hiding up the VEGA G2’s sleeve: it’s a DAC that’s
always in
charge.
While DACs until now have relied on DPLL circuitry to lock on to the input
signal’s frequency, the VEGA G2 has no such limitation – a first in the audio
industry. Lightning OS takes full advantage of the Tesla Platform’s considerable
resources by buffering enough data to make the input signal’s frequency irrelevant,
allowing the VEGA G2 to govern all processing with that super-accurate 72fs Femto
Master Clock. It’s a configurable setting too, from 0.1s to 1s, so a smaller buffer size
may be set for higher quality sources.

Dual 72fs Femto Master Clocks
We’ve built the VEGA G2 with two incredibly precise clocks for amazing accuracy.
One clock handles sampling of formats in multiples of 44.1kHz, and the second takes
care of 48kHz (and multiples) files. They’re the most sophisticated clocks we’ve ever
built, and function on 72 femtosecond cycles – 72
quadrillionths
of a second. The
result is less jitter and immaculate sound.
The 72fs Femto Master Clock is just as quiet as it is accurate, with an extremely low
-169dBc/Hz of phase noise and a 100Hz offset noise level of only -118dBc/Hz, thanks
in part to its low-noise 3uV dedicated power supply.
