| TWO
POWER SUPPLIES ARE BETTER THAN ONE
Great sounding audio starts in the most unsuspecting
places. Even the slightest whisper of noise on supply
rails will find its way into your audio so RADAR®V
has two separate dedicated, high quality supplies.
The digital supply balances all the digital loads
with calculated efficiency while the analog supply
ensures that all of the more than 3000 analog components
receive the purest power possible. Designed for
extremely low noise and incredible regulation, RADAR®V’s
dedicated, fan-less analog supply delivers full,
dual 18 volt rails to all of the analog sections
yielding maximum headroom and high bandwidth performance.
ULTRA LOW JITTER CLOCK AND
DIFFERENTIAL CLOCK LINES
A jitter-free word clock ensures audio signals pass
through converters without artifacts. Any amount
of jitter on the clock will result in signals that
were not in your original material, called side
bands. Even the most expensive converters can be
severely degraded by jitter prone clocks and single-ended
unbalanced clock lines. To shield against this,
RADAR®V’s Adrenaline Plus houses an ultra
low jitter digital frequency synthesized phase lock
loop followed by impedance matched, balanced differential
pair clock lines throughout the system.
COUPLING CAPACITORS COST CASH
Why do so many systems compromise their front end
by using inexpensive capacitors? Answer: Because
there are a lot of caps and the cost adds up quickly.
iZ Technology’s high tech solution? Spend
a lot of money on caps and don’t look back.
FAST OP-AMPS OPEN UP THE SOUND
Pre-amplifier stages will make or break any audio
system so high performance, differential, high slew
rate op amps are the key to great transient response.
Sudden changes in the analog signal will not pass
through to the converters if the op-amps can’t
handle the speed. RADAR®V’s carefully
designed converters use extremely fast balanced
op amps that ensure the un-encumbered passage of
high bandwidth audio.
WORKSTATION COMPATIBILITY
A must for today’s high tech creative process
is the ability to transfer large sound files quickly
between systems. The engineers at iZ came up with
an innovative way to flatten large RADAR® BWAV
files onto a standard MAC or PC readable disk in
seconds with a lookup table, thus eliminating the
need for time and disk space consuming exports,
file consolidations or real time transfers. RADAR®V
and RADAR®24 can now record on standard SCSI,
IDE or new high performance SATA drives. These drives
can be plugged directly into MACs or PCs via SATA,
SCSI or Firewire drive bays.
