Generation VIII

Overview

Generation VIII

The Generation VIII is a full differential balanced DAC preamp featuring custom-designed software-programmable difital filters feeding into two digital-to-analog converters per channel, one for each phase angle. It delivers the extremely accurate, defined, natural sound that digital technology can offer.

The Generation VIII is remarkable in its ability to recreate the tone of acoustic instruments, the placement and size of instruments within the sound stage, and the darkness between the players.

High frequencies are delicately reproduced, as silken as the recording offers. The bass reproduction is jaw-dropping; authoritative all the way down, never ponderous. The warmth of the string bass is right on. Electric bass has speed and power.

Resolution on voices is fine-grained: big choral works resolve individual singers, where other processors tend to sound mushy. The Generation VIII has none of the icy quality that even some very expensive "upsamplers" impart to massed voices.
