The Multi Source Player

This is a unique device that reflects an ingenious design philosophy, combining the classic music source CD with the ability to play digital music formats from a variety of sources! Please note: The MP 1000 E is NOT a computer, but a first-class audiophile CD player with additional features that allow other internal and external digital sources to use its excellent converter.

To this end, we have developed a mainboard capable of processing five different digital sources in top quality and jitter-free, a new Streaming Client (SCL), a network-compatible processor board with WLAN, LAN and USB interfaces, a high-quality digital tuner, a high-end CD mechanism and a Digital Connecting Board with five high-quality digital SP/DIF inputs, a computer USB input and an aptX® Bluetooth module.

This gives the MP 1000 E access to everything that delivers music: Internet radio with Airable Internet Radio Service, UPnP network music servers and USB storage media, FM, FM HD and DAB+ radio, CDs and music from computers, laptops or other external sources via the SP/DIF inputs. HD Bluetooth streaming from mobile devices is also possible in excellent quality.

The USB device mode input is intended for streaming music files from a computer and was deliberately designed to be of exceptionally high quality. It can handle data rates of up to 32 bit / 384 kHz for PCM and DSD 256 (12 MHz).
The heart of the MP 1000 E is its dual mono differential converter (DAC) combined with audiophile high bandwidth analog output stages. It even features a sophisticated clock resynchronization circuit that eliminates jitter and all forms of external noise.

This combination is responsible for the MP 1000 E’s incredibly natural, lively “analog sound,” which is refreshingly different from that of many other digital players.
Optionally, the MP 1000 E can be equipped with the VVM preamplifier module for volume control; this may be necessary, for example, if you want to use active loudspeakers with the unit.

The device uses the latest 32-bit converters from Burr Brown (TI). These features make the MP 1000 E both a high-end audio DAC for external sources and a high-end player for the integrated sources! There are even two modes for the filter characteristics, allowing the user to tune the transducer to the particular features the selected source.

After digital signal conversion, a high-quality audiophile analog output stage with high bandwidth (100 kHz) is responsible for further signal processing. This is perfectly matched to the balanced and unbalanced outputs and makes an important contribution to the outstanding overall sound quality of the device.Via the five high-RES digital inputs (coaxial at 192 kHz and optical at 96 kHz), external sources can be converted to high levels by the integrated DAC, so that other devices can also take advantage of the MP 1000 E’s exceptional sound characteristics.

The extremely high-quality USB/DAC input is designed for streaming DSD or PCM music files from the PC in very high resolution; up to PCM 384 or DSD 256 are possible. Furthermore, the device has input jacks for USB devices, LAN and a WiFi-. The scope of delivery of the MP 1000 E includes the SRC 1 system remote control, which can also be used to control the PA 1000 E.
