Available in silver or black, The Esoteric X-05 SACD/CD player offers much of Esoteric's phenomenal technology—and, far more important, much of Esoteric's phenomenal sound—at a "real world" price. Esoteric packed the X-05 with innovative digital technology. The VRDS-NEO "VMK-5", for example, features a high-precision aluminium turntable, optimised for high-speed rotation of SACDs. There's also a highly accurate shaft-mounted laser pickup assembly, and a dual-mono DAC. As with all Esoteric gear, the mechanics are designed and built in-house, never bought in.
Disc tray opening, clamping and closing is managed by a proprietary process know as “differential gearing.” This system (Patent pending), enables exceptionally smooth disc loading through the seamless engagement of the tray and disc clamp gears during the load sequence. This reduces the number of parts required and adds to system longevity.
The X-05 uses Cirrus Logic’s 24-bit/192 kHz processing DACs, model CS-4398. The analog audio output circuits are engineered in a dual mono configuration helping to produce superior channel separation. This 2 channel dedicated circuit and a dual mono DAC implementation contributes to precise imaging and a deeper sound stage for the X-05. Previously, ESOTERIC only offered VRDS technology at disc player price points of $8200.00 and above. The new X-05 allows a wider range of consumers to experience the benefits of VRDS engineering in a more cost effective package.
This is a SACD/CD player of battleship construction with a refined, delicate, dynamic sound that'll have you scrambling through your digital collection into the early hours of the morning.
