The high clock rate allows all HD audio formats up to 32 bit\/384 kHz or DSD 128 to be decoded. However, the new streaming board does not use the source as a digital clock, but rather the master clock of the D\/A converter used in the NDX 2. The data is oversampled in a SHARC DSP to an extreme accuracy of 40 bits before being sent to the Burr Brown PCM1791A digital-to-analog converter.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eDeveloping a new streaming platform was one of the biggest challenges Naim has ever faced. Naim engineers from various departments such as electronics, manufacturing, acoustics, and mechanics worked closely together for over three years to create a system that gets the best out of online services like TIDAL and Spotify and is open to future applications via integrated Chromecast technology. This stable platform supports higher data rates via dual-band Wi-Fi and the current 802.11ac protocol and has been designed in every respect for maximum quality.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Naim Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52457055846666,"sku":"132411","price":2990.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/5340\/0586\/files\/img132411_87924.jpg?v=1769452710","url":"https:\/\/hifi.shop\/en\/products\/naim-audio-nd5-xs-2","provider":"Hifi \u0026 Friends GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
