Description

Tasty Canadian. The Moon Ace delivers dynamic and detailed playback, with a natural balance between highs and lows. The low end is tight and controlled without being overpowering, while the high frequencies remain clear and precise. Mid frequencies are reproduced with warmth and clarity, which is what many often desire here in the shop anyway.
Retail price: 4,090.00
Details
Incl. MiND 2 module
Used as a demo by dealer or importer. Naturally, demo models have had no private owner, and come with full factory warranty.

Demo

i

Connect an (additional) power amplifier if you wish. The pre-out is also suitable for active subwoofers.

pre-out

i

Nice thumping! The active subwoofer can be connected to the sub-out. The output signal is variable, so the volume of the subwoofer remains the same as that of the speakers.

Sub-out

i

Still prefer to place it out of sight? There is the option of looping the infrared signal from the remote control. You connect an infrared extender to this device, and you can still use the remote control while the device is in a cabinet. Just make sure there is adequate ventilation/airflow.

USB ports can transport up to the highest possible bit rate. Although sometimes they are only for connecting an external drive.

USB

i

Optical input, interference-free and therefore proven to be the better option with some dacs, although they are often limiting in bitrate (yet there are dacs that let in up to 24 bit/192 kHz). The cable used is hugely important we can report, we’d be happy to let you assess these differences.

Optical

i

SPDIF is the abbreviation for Sony/Philips Digital Interface Format. (Nice that we, as a small country, have had influence there!) It is a standard for the transmission of a digital signal between, for example, a streamer or CD drive to dac. The cable used makes quite a difference in playback. A standard cable shows mostly a messy and abundant low, and the middle and high sludge into a mess. There are many who dispute this. Be skeptical, but there has to be a time for evaluation.

SPDIF

i

To the internal dac (digital-to-analog converter) you can connect digital devices such as an (inexpensive) streamer or television, allowing you to enjoy higher music quality.

Internal DAC with input

i

Pull albums straight from the music library of music services or from your own NAS. The streamer does this easily via your phone, tablet or laptop.

CD

De Compact Disc (CD) kwam zoals de meeste uitvindingen niet uit de lucht vallen. Na de uitvinding van de laser in 1958 werd in 1961 het eerste octrooi voor optisch leesbare schijven ingediend. In 1972 werden de eerste digitale videoplaten geïntroduceerd. Na een flop van Philips kwam de fabrikant in 1979 samen met Sony met de eerste cd, wat erop stond weten wij niet maar in 1982 kwam de eerste cd voor de markt uit, het was het album Visitors van ABBA. In dit jaar kwam de eerste speler beschikbaar en zo begon de verdrijving van de lp uit de markt. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen. Heb je cd’s, geniet er vooral nog eens van, ze hebben immers geen oneindige levensduur.

CD

The Compact Disc (CD), like most inventions, did not appear out of thin air. After the invention of the laser in 1958, the first patent for optically readable disks was filed in 1961. The first digital video records were introduced in 1972. After a flop by Philips, the manufacturer, together with Sony, released the first CD in 1979. We do not know what it contained, but in 1982 the first CD was released for the market, it was the album Visitors by ABBA. In this year the first player became available and so began the elimination of the LP from the market. Many have literally thrown their LPs in the trash… we still see some visitors being disappointed when they tell us this. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen.
