D/A Conerter
(Inculde Remote Control)

$ 86,999
This digital to analog converter has a smart connection system with several input types as RCA, XLR, optical and USB support. It integrates an Asynchrous Data Processor (ADP) up sampling module in order to get the best and optimized D/A conversion performance.

To fully achieve the potential of the CD audio, up sampling is executed with the latest version of a unique algorithm based on quantum mechanics.

Unlike traditional re-sampling techniques where new intermediate values are interpolated with only two preceding values, Orpheus generates a more accurate analog output based on multiple preceding values. The Orpheus One SE MK2 has been upgraded with a USB port and a revised microcontroller. The USB audio card works at 24 bits @ 96KHz. Inside the One SE, an innovative master clock is placed close to the different DAC’s in order to significantly reduce the jitter. The goal of that operation is to greatly enhance the speed and attack. Local regulations and the various processing stages reduce the interference and the potential of signal quality degradation. These operations set new standards for digital audio playback. The analog stage features the wealth of highest quality components and carefully laid out signal traces to achieve the most transparent result possible, unleashing the full potential of the One SE’s digital section.

In keeping with Orpheus's subtle style, the silver finished chassis and natural brushed aluminium front panel lends a sense of timeless and understated elegance to any contemporary home interior. His modest dimensions make it easy for the proud owner to choose uncompromising High End performance and uncompromising style. Designed to fit a single rack unit (482 x 370 x 75 mm), each Orpheus component employs an ultra-compact signal path layout for significant gains in audio performance.

Heritage Line
SACD Driver
(Include Remote Control)

$ 384,999
The Heritage SACD has been developed with all the newest technologies available on the market. It integrates the VMK-5 mechanism from Esoteric. This product comes with a new 4.3" TFT LCD to display all the new features of this CD / SACD. The addition of a D/A Converter card to the SACD Drive allow you to use it as a Player.

The Orpheus Heritage line is the state of the art audio performance and design. We are talking about pure audio performance so our goal is to play the music as it has precisely been recorded, without any inappropriate modification of the sound. It is obvious that to achieve this goal no compromises had to be made in selection of materials and components used inside the machine.

The SACD drive integrates the new VMK-5 mechanism from Esoteric with the VRDS technology that minimizes frictions and stresses on the electrical engine. This is why the playback speed is very smooth and the system extremely quiet. A new oversized power supply integrating the newest technologies of AC/DC and DC/DC regulation is used to get the best audio performances. This new power supply limits the power loss converted in useless heat, this in order to increase the life of components.

A new 4.3 ‘’ LCD screen with more than 16Mio colour and brightness control on 255 steps is used. The signal board has been developed to precisely control the correct path of the digital data and also includes a self-monitoring error system. This player also incorporates the new up sampling module with a Asynchrous Data Processor (ADP) and the new Master Clock Generator (MCG) system. To get the best audio performance of the D/A converter from the same line, the SACD Heritage integrates a DSD output and a word clock out connector in order to minimize the jitter.

The SACD drive Heritage is composed by one stylish treated aluminium box. The front panel is composed of the IR receiver, a standby LED, the tray of the SACD mechanism, the LCD screen and the illuminated logo. The command buttons are place on the right side of the device. Orpheus logo is carved into the front panel by using delicate and special mechanical process. When the unit is turned on, a beautiful backlight illuminates the logo and indicates to the user that the device is ready to operate. The marvellous curve of the front panel reminds the wave of the Orpheus logo with class and very refined style. This product is not only a spectacular audio device but also a state of the art mechanical design.

D/A Converter III + Power Supply

$ 404,999
The Heritage D/A Converter is the most famous product of the Orpheus brand. Its third generation has been updated and improved to be compatible with all the new features available on the SACD drive from the same line. The DSD input is now supported as well as a word clock input to improve clock specifications.

The new Heritage D/A Converter have been updated with brand new features as a DSD (Direct Stream Digital) input. Moreover, the new DAC is able to clock with an external digital clock source.

If no external clock is used, the Time Lock module will generate his own master clock used at all the different stages of the converter in order to minimize the jitter. It also keeps the high levels of audio technology by using several up sampling modules and the unique proprietary D/A converter drive modules followed by four D/A converter IC's per channel.

The scrambling technique is used to lower the noise generated by the D/A conversion phase. A firewire and a USB 192KHz input have also been integrated in order to connect the Heritage DAC with a computer to use it as an impressive external audio converter.

In order to keep the highest rate of performance, we decided to keep a dual mono architecture. That means that each channel has its own power supply and its own transformer in order to erase all interaction between channels. The DSP and the MCU boards have also been upgraded in order to integrate all the new features and improve even more the most legendary product of Orpheus.

The Heritage D/A converter is composed of two separated boxes. The box with the LED and the Orpheus logo placed on front is the power supply. Its goal is to convert the noisy AC voltage coming from the electrical plug into a regulated and clean DC voltage. The other box, is the one to contain all the electronics that does all the digital signal processing and digital to analog conversions. This separation is made in order to avoid catching the noise coming from the AC to DC voltage conversion phase. The Orpheus logo is carved into the front panel by using delicate and special mechanical process. When the unit is turned on, a beautiful backlight illuminates the logo and indicates to the user that the device is ready to operate. The marvellous curve on both front panels of the two separated boxes reminds the refined and classy style of the Orpheus logo wave. This product is not only a spectacular audio device but also a state of the art mechanical design.
