Femto Clock Technology
Mytek’s new Femto Clock that’s incorporated into our C777 Clocking architecture pushes jitter and the noise floor below measurable levels.
Highest Resolution Support
Modern high resolution audio formats support for PCM 32 bit 384 kHz DXD to Quad DSD256 11.2 MHz.
Discrete Analog & Digital Power Supplies
Two separate isolated power supplies for the analog and digital stages that lower noise and crosstalk while increasing power and consistency.
