High Quality Analog Audio Stereo Output

The DV-50 uses the same high-end components that successfully provided
the beautiful and natural sound in the Esoteric D-70: including a secondgeneration
RDOT algorithm and a FIR (Finite Impulse Response) digital
filter that supports sharp high-end sampling.

The algorithm and filter enable up-conversion of digital audio data read
from a DVD or CD, to a maximum of 1536 kHz for DVD audio/video and
1411.2 kHz for a CD. The up-converted data is processed through a D/A
converter whose advanced segmentation method provides excellent handling
of dynamic characteristics. The D/A converter uses a 4-DAC configuration for
L/R± differential operation, enabling more accurate D/A conversion

• The DV-50 uses Burr-Brown PCM1738 24-bit/192kHz DACs in a fully balanced dual-differential configuration. These DACs can convert linear PCM up to 24 bits and a 192kHz sampling rate, but not DSD. However they do have a DSD decoder interface for SACD playback, which TEAC uses in the DV-50. According to TEAC, the DV-50's circuit boards are laid out for performance, not build convenience, and use "high-end" passive parts.

DSD (Direct Stream Digital) mode is used when playing an SACD so no up-conversion is selectable.

The DV-50 front panel contains a digital filter mode selector switch and up-conversion frequency indicators.

• When a disc is played, the digital audio signal read from the disc is re-clocked using a high-precision master clock signal generated on the audio PCB by a voltage controlled crystal oscillator (VCXO). After any jitter caused by transmission within the device is removed, the signal is input to the digital filters and then converted to an analog signal. This process produces extremely stable sound.
• The DV-50 uses very high slew-rate operational amplifiers from National Semiconductor to perform current/voltage conversion on the current outputs from the DA converter IC.
• For synthesis of audio differential signals and an active low-pass filter, the DV-50 uses operational amps from Analog Devices. These Op Amps are renowned for their exceptional audio performance characteristics.
• 6-Channel analog outputs support SACD and DVD-Audio multi-channel content. In addition, the built in decoding processors decode all Dolby Digital or DTS signals. This enables the DV-50 to output the highest quality surround sound for all formats
• For high-resolution 2-channel audio, the DV-50 provides both balanced XLR outputs and unbalanced RCA outputs. The 2-channel analog outputs are completely separate from the analog signals converted by the 6-channel D/A converter.
• Video OFF function is provided to shut down the unused video circuitry during pure audio operations. This operation eliminates any unnecessary digital clocking or internal noises improving the purity of the audio reproduction. Video circuits are stopped when a DVD-Audio disc, SACD, or CD is being played.
• Most audio/visual devices use a switching regulator type power supply. These supplies use high frequency clocks and can radiate noise within neighboring electronic circuits. The DV-50 however, utilizes a cut-core transformer built with carefully selected materials to achieve highdimensional performance in both sound and video. In addition to
  eliminating the adverse effects on sound quality from switching noise, this design suppresses noise from components by using Schottky barrier diodes for power circuitry rectifiers.
• The highest quality components are used throughout the DV-50 to take full advantage of the strength of our precision crafted mechanism and to bring out the full performance of the mechanical casing. All components are hand-chosen, after exhaustive listening and sound tests, to ensure that the components are of the highest quality.
• The DV-50’s precision machined aluminum front panel features an elegant finish created by a newly developed vibration process.
• The disc tray utilizes a soft urethane-based film coating to protect your discs and further enhance the smooth overall operation.
• The ergonomically designed remote control features an aluminum body with genuine leather finish that feels natural to the touch.
• The AC cable provided with the DV-50 was engineered for both high fidelity and tactile quality
