OVATION SD 6.2
Analog pre-amplifier with Streaming & DAC
OVATION SD Streaming DAC: A completely different animal
The new OVATION Line SD 6.2 heralds a completely new category of AVM components with streaming
capabilities. The brand new SD components combine an analog pre-amp with 2 analog line inputs, DAC with
DSD, Streaming Client, web radio and a high performance headphone amp all into one unit. We call them
Streaming DAC or short: SD.
In the SD 6.2 we focus on pure solid state technology in all amplifier stages. This is technology is compiled into
an OVATION Line cabinet size well known from our modular PA 8 pre-amplifier.
Since this SD unit may serve as full-blown pre-amp, combining them with our power amps SA 6.2, SA 8.2 or MA
8.2 is a logical consequence. Furthermore the SD 6.2 may as well be combined with active speakers.
With the new SD 6.2 so called computer audio comes to the OVATION Line. A completely new combination of
analog preamplifier, streaming client, DAC with DSD and headphone amp creates a new category of digital
sound center for listeners with a focus on digitally streamed music from different sources.
2 ESS 9018 K2M Sabre32 DACs per channel are being applied. This way even the digital domain the music
signals are being processed in balanced mode. High precision clocks are being applied. The voltage regulators
are separated for both DACs and the supply voltage is regulated twice. This decouples the DAC entirely from
other parts of the digital circuitry. The AVM streaming engine allows countless formats to be processed and is
upgradeable making it future proof for additional formats.
Like all AVM hi-fi components the SD 6.2 is carefully developed and assembled by our engineers in Malsch,
Germany. Our vendors for housing and electronic parts reside all near-by. This proximity helps us to easily ensure
and maintain superb quality level of the supplied parts for the AVM hi-fi components made of these.
During the manufacturing process we perform repeatedly numerous tests to insure the absolute quality of our
products. When the assembling is finished and the first inspection is done all units must pass a run in test in
order to prove their reliability. After that a careful final inspection follows before packing & shipping. All this ensures
creating a perfect product from AVM for our customers
