High Quality Balanced Output
Balanced output effectively blocks noise generated when signals are transmitted by adding "out of phase" signals to unbalanced output signals. Since it transmits two types of signals simultaneously, the PLENUE S strengthens the output signal for clearer and crisper reproduction of original sound. The PLENUE S uses balanced output to reproduce crisp original sounds.
The Best Possible Choice HD Sound, SNR 120dB and THD+N 0.0005%
SNR 120dB and THD+N 0.0005% deliver 24bit HD Sound with beautifully balanced output.
The PLENUE S provides the balanced, high resolution output music lovers have come to expect from PLENUE.
It is one of key criteria that can be measured to compare acoustic performances between one to another. If there is a difference of 6dB between two devices, there is a difference of 1 quantization bit in digital signal. For example, the device with 113dB has a loss of more than 1 quantization bit in digital signal, which leads to twice the amplitude resolution difference comparing to PLENUE S with 120dB. Therefore, to fully enjoy the HD Sound, a device must have excellent SNR figures.
Having a poor SNR or THD means the device performs imperfect reproduction of the 24bit source, so there is no difference between playing 24bit source and 16bit source. COWON processed through intensive research and development period to achieve the best SNR, THD etc. PLENUE S covers from basic specifications to advanced ones offering enhanced enjoyment of listening HD Sound to users.
