January 16, 2009

Cary Audio Design, known for high performance high-end audio and video products, trumpets in 2009 with gusto, showcasing the new Xciter Integrated Stereo Amplifier, matching Xciter 192 kHz/32 BIT DAC and the award-winning Cinema 11a High-Definition Audio Processor at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), January 8th through the 10th, in Las Vegas. Computer-savvy sound buffs, thirsting for phenomenal sound, score hours of listening excitement with the Xciter Integrated vacuum tube Stereo Amplifier and matching Xciter D/A converter driven USB from a lap top computer. The internal components are exceptionally put together to create a compact desktop entertainment system. It packs exhilaration, enjoyment and excellence in a concentrated ‘rhythm box system.’ The new Xciter amplifier contains two 12AX7A input gain stage/driver stage tubes and four 6L6GC output tubes. A sleek exterior has a subtle touch of translucent blue LED back lighting that reflects the natural radiance of the vacuum tubes, as it provides five watts per channel in class A triode Cary Audio sound. The beauty is that the listener can take advantage of the entire amplifier through the headphone output. A front panel switch allows the user to select between external speakers or headphones. The circuitry is optimized to provide a good match for all high quality headphones from four to 400 ohms. The Xciter Integrated Amplifier, along with the matching Xciter Digital to Analog Converter, is the first in a series of products to come under the Cary Audio Xciter collection of products. The excitation doubles when the amplifier is teamed with the new Xciter D/A (Digital/Analog) USB Converter. This compact desktop 192kHz/32 Bit DAC features a computer USB input along with optical input and two coaxial inputs, all selectable from the front panel. For a videopoly of moving pictures to strike you with verve, energy, and vitality, in only a way that Cary Audio Design can, see the Cinema 11v high-performance HD video processor, switcher and scaler. It incorporates the latest Faroudja® DCDi video technology, and can scale any video input to WUXGA 120 Hz 1080p video output. It converts any input to any output and features HDMI 1.3 inputs (six) and outputs (two). Video ideologists, hungry for high-performance display, actualize hearty home-cinema experiences with a Cinema Series combo. The new Cinema 11a High-Definition Audio Processor is generating a big sound wave with its capabilities. It has the ability to decode and playback both the raw bit stream and lossless linear PCM signals from the latest high-resolution audio formats. Ratchet it up a notch with the Model 2.125 two-channel amplifier. It provides 125 watts of clean, cool-running amplification. This new unit is intended to be used as a Zone 2 amplifier when paired with the new Cinema 11a, or to power the rear surround speakers of a seven-channel home theater system. The Model 7.125 and Model 7.250 are both seven-channel amplifiers that provide 125 watts and 250 watts per channel respectively.
