The Abacus can interpret this seductive Heed sound from a great variety of digital sources, even if the music is coded in extremely highly detailed PCM or DSD signal. PCM and DSD are the two main methods for digital recording. The Abacus can handle PCM signals upto 384 kHz and 32 bits and natively processes the double speed DSD. Quartz based clocks and well-designed linear power supplies ensure that the resolution of digital processing is always perfect. The analogue buffer stages of the Abacus are made of discrete components to allow the best possible first steps for the analogue signal.
