Word synchronization The X-05 features a WORD SYNC input terminal to accept an incoming external WORD clock signal. The input can operate with 44.1 / 88.2 / 100 / 176.4 kHz clock signals. The unit can also operate using an ESOTERIC original 100 kHz Universal Clock signal (Single freq. compatible w/ SACD/CD and DVD). The incoming ultra-stable clock signal produced by external components such as a master clock sync generator, effectively upgrade the unit, delivering higher performance with better detail and a more natural sound. Because master clocks generate a signal to re-time the DAC and transport, acoustic transparency, staging, imaging and detail often improve. Highly rigid chassis construction for optimal resonance control capability The X-05 front panel is made of thick extruded aluminum. This helps to insure chassis rigidity which reduces unwanted resonance and provides a stronger support structure for the center mounted VRDS mechanism. The top and side panels are made of 5 mm thick aluminum. The bottom chassis features a heavy duty 5 mm thick steel plate. The toroidal transformer support base also features 5 mm steel plate for better resonance absorption. Combined with three pinpoint isolation feet made of quenched steel, this chassis design helps to isolate the unit from external vibrations, allowing precise mechanism mounting and highly-rigid, resonance-free system construction. The VRDS-NEO VMK-5 and its operation are visible from the top panel window. The mechanism is illuminated with LEDs during disc load and unload operations, enhancing both its mechanical and cosmetic appeal.
