Introduction
Thank you and congratulations for
purchasing the Absolute Stream – one of
the best-sounding music servers currently
available.
If you are already an Ideon Audio equipment
owner, thank you for your continued trust in
our approach to music reproduction. We
hope you will soon enjoy the Absolute Suite (if
you aren’t already doing so!).
If you are a newcomer, we are thrilled to
welcome you on board to our Absolute
Suite!
Your Absolute Stream is an audiophile music server; it was designed from the ground up to
offer superlative sound, surpassing the sonics of the best commercially available streamers.
To achieve this, we equipped the Absolute Stream circuit with several audiophile features,
components, and proprietary circuits:
• Proprietary re-clocking platform: it uses a
hi-quality femto clock and is upgradable.
• Seriously over-engineered power supply:
◊ Proprietary, ultra-low esr, special
bypasspowerlterimproving
the transient current for the CPU
(spectacular sound improvement!)
◊ Huge main capacitor bank using low
esr, audiophile “silk” capacitors
◊ Hand-made audiophile transformer
◊ Proprietary,“no-noise”,rectication
active bridge topology which
eliminates noise from diodes
• Short signal paths without wiring
• Audiophile design & solid aluminium
construction
• Simplied,bare-bonesoperationavoids
internal noise-inducing circuits
