What is the difference between Klimax DSM (2020 variant) and earlier versions?
Exakt Devices
• Ultra-low jitter clock with improved clock distribution circuitry and new low-noise power supply
• This clock is used as the Exakt master clock and is distributed to all Exakt devices in the system
• Improving the clock in the Klimax DSM (AV / Music / Hub) improves the performance of all Exakt devices in the system
Analogue Inputs
• Brand new, high-performance ADC (analogue to digital converter) which now has its own circuit board and dedicated power supply
• New design has lower noise and lower distortion which benefits all analogue sources
Digital Inputs
• New Linn-designed SPDIF receiver implemented in an FPGA
• Improved clock recovery algorithm for reduced jitter
• SPDIF inputs support up to 192kHz/24-bit audio
• One SPDIF digital input can be configured as an output - This is also possible in the Klimax DSM/2 (2016/208 variant)
• The addition of a USB (type B) input allows connection to a computer as an audio device
USB input supports up to 384kHz/24-bit audio
Streaming
• 384kHz/24-bit streaming support
• DSD256 audio format support
Connectivity
• The optical Ethernet connection improves audio performance by providing complete isolation from noisy network components
• WiFi and Bluetooth (4.2) connectivity
• Audio can be streamed from devices such as mobile phones, Alexa, Google Home
HDMI
HDMI eARC support
