Content of Improvements Super Audio CD/CD Player X-03 Special Edition Universal Player UX-3 Special Edition Main internal wiring has been upgraded to 6N copper class, providing a highly accurate signal path for enhanced audio reproduction! By upgrading to high purity 6N copper class wire, X-03 audio resolution characteristics and acoustic texturing improves. This wiring was jointly developed with Mitsubishi Cable Industries, Ltd. and Acro Japan Ltd. Other improvements include internal connections and power cables, adopted from the Esoteric P-01/D-01 flagship system. Upgraded audio output circuits influence & improve performance of the D to A signal converter. Through the use of upgraded capacitors and resistors, like those used in the P-01/D-01 system design, Esoteric has enhanced both DAC and analog output stage audio performance.This provides superior ambience and presence, creating more of an open air listening experience. These improvements allow a more natural impact, and perceived depth of field is improved. Audio output terminals (L/R) and digital audio output terminals are upgraded to RCA "nextgen" terminal connectors, as provided by Germanys WBT Company. These terminal upgrades to model WBT-0 210Cu, RCAs next generation connectors, provide higher performance for both audio output applications. Typically, lower grade connector plates touch a cold side. Electrically this is assumed to be an open structure by contact at that point. The RCA nextogen connectors eliminate adverse eff ects generated by an open structure and noise such as eddy current is greatly reduced or eliminated. Additionally, digital transmission in combination with a new high-level, digital cable, one that guarantees 75Ω impedance is now utilized. This allows better control of signal attenuation due impedance fluctuation. This adds additional sonic improvement noticeable within a listening environment. Thick aluminum side / top panels These two special edition models feature X-01 / UX-1 style thick aluminum side / top panels. An ESOTERIC logo is exquisitely engraved on the top panel and the Special Edition gold emblem on the top panel indicates that these two models are truly a special evolution from the X-03 and UX-3.
