Lexicon RV-8 Receiver

Based on the critically acclaimed line of Lexicon preamp/processors and power amplifiers, the RV-8 was designed from the ground up with the enthusiast in mind. The massive power amplifier section outputs an impressive 140 watts on each of its 7 channels across the entire audible spectrum with all 7 channels driven simultaneously.And it does so while retaining exceptional transparency, wide dynamic range and sonic neutrality. The RV-8 delivers real power that makes stand-alone multi-channel power amplifiers blush. Mated with an exceptional preamp/processor utilizing the latest algorithms, including LOGIC 7 and an intuitive user interface, the RV-8 can be viewed as “separates” that happen to share the same chassis.

dCS Scarlatti STT CD/SACD, SDC D/A, SCK
For almost 10 years the dCS Verdi Encore/Elgar Plus/Verona have occupied the universally-recognized position as the best sounding CD/SACD playback system in the world. Those days are over. With the introduction of the dCS Scarlatti STT CD/SACD transport, Scarlatti SDC D/A converter and Scarlatti SCK master clock, a new standard in digital playback has been set, one which I, personally, would not have believed possible. Say it any way you want, "there's a new sheriff in town"; "the king is dead, long live the king"! Or, "meet the new heavyweight champion of the world". Use any metaphor you can think of to describe a palpable superiority in performance and you are only scratching the surface of how musical and how much better sounding the Scarlatti system is than the Verdi Encore/Elgar Plus. This is due not only to dCS' new advanced algorithms but also to a level of construction quality and parts selection which is an order of magnitude better than its forebear. The Scarlatti transport/DAC are built like the proverbial brick s-- houses. Most impressively, the Scarlatti transport employs Esoteric's finest VRDS/Neo transport mechanism which is available only in the Scarlatti STT CD/SACD transport and Esoteric's best CD drive.

There simply isn't any question about it: If you want the very best, you need to own the Scarlatti transport and DAC. If you already have a Verona, you can use it as the master clock or upgrade it to the Scarlatti SCK with its ever so slightly noticeable increase in performance and unearthly build quality.

We stand ready to take your order for delivery of Scarlatti within 2 weeks, or if you need convincing, come on down and we'll do an A/B comparison between the Verdi Encore / Elgar Plus and the Scarlatti system. Just don't plan on getting up quickly. You will be in a state of shock.

 

The kW DM25 transport has a unique configuration of power supplies for the primary information retrieval that sets new standards. With CD the statement ”garbage in, garbage out” has never been more true. No previous CD system has ever addressed the problem of CD information retrieval with the same thoroughness as analog turntables.

Just like an analog turntable the kW DM25 transport has a proper isolation system to ensure that acoustic/seismic feedback are virtually eliminated.

The digital output is split into left and right separately. Each output is AES/EBU balanced operating at 96kHz (not the usual 44.1kHz.)

Taken as a system the kW DM25 transport is able to retrieve the finest detail from your discs. Using the DM25 on familiar discs is like having a veil between you and the music removed. The sound is brighter, clearer and yet sweeter. You can hear right into the nooks and crannies of the recording and the acoustic. It's really pretty damn good!
