FRAME HECATE XCORE 208 - DIY

Interface USB SPDIF - 32bit / 384kHz - Asynchronous - OTG

Armature Audio Hecate DIY

A USB interface with double galvanic isolation

The Hecate Xmos Xcore 208 Asynchronous USB / SPDIF Frame features the latest in high-resolution digital technology. This interface includes dual isolation galvanic isolation with 2x4 channels, guaranteeing the 1000 MIPS of computing capacity of the new processor XMOS Xcore 208, that is twice the capacity of the XMOS U8 older generation.

Thehas design quality of USB interface Armature Hecate uses the best electronic components. You can certainly say that you are in the company of one of the best USB interfaces on the market.

Thea I2S output on AMANERO compatible solder pins allows transmission of files up to 32bit / 384KHz and DSD 256. This allows the maximum resolution of the 32 bit Bitless DAC with a very low jitter.

Xilink Processor

The original Xilink integrated processor which lowers the fully programmed output jitter allows very high resolution decoding on a 4-layer printed circuit board. The alliance of the high-transfer galvanic bridge, of the two Crystek low-noise phase oscillators provides analytical capability, enhanced readability for any quality 24/32bit DAC. Here is a USB / SPDIF interface that will renew your musical experience.

XMOS Xcore 208

This state-of-the-art XMOS processor has 4 times the computing power of the old XMOS U8. The result: Greater definition combined with a very low jitter. XMOS Chips are a reference in this field and recognized time and again by the audiophile world.

High precision clocks

The two oscillators of 22.57Mhz (multiple of 44.1Khz) and 24.57Mhz (multiple of 48khz)Crystek CCHD-575-25 ensures a very low jitter rate and increased accuracy. The result is immediately audible with a very high definition without tension, a respect of the stamps well above the competitors USB interfaces.

works perfectly
works out of the box, tested on Coaxial output to PS Audio Directstream DAC an with raspberry pi3 as source (using dietpi and RoonBridge)

Superbe réussite
Pour l'instant utilisé uniquement sur sa sortie SPDIF alors que l'objectif sera de brancher un module AudioGD output I2S/HDMI par la suite. Rien que dans cette configuration, le résultat est stupéfiant par rapport à la sortie USB de mon PC ou RaspberryPI3. Gain en transparence et précision, meilleure scène sonore. Et ce, même avec les fichiers HD, le gain pour moi est énorme.

Trés bien
J'ai commandé cet interface pour remplacer un Audio-GD Amanero, il y a pas photo c'est nettement mieux et largement au dessus, sans entrer dans les superlatifs (idiophiles !) du son fruité et tout et tout, sur mon système très critique, qui ne pardonne rien, en 4 voies actives à pavillons, avec filtrage FIR via 2 cartes Najda modifiées (une par canal) et amplis "maison" classe A mosfet, la différence est flagrante, écoute globale plus "analogique" qu'avant, et sensation d'une plus grande pureté,
Je précise que j'utilise la sortie I2S uniquement (qui est conforme à la norme, centrée à gauche, suite à un test effectué avec un oscillo Tektronix MDO3014 option I2S), pas de problème pour le câblage des 3 bus, car les sorties LRCLK, BCLK et Data sont parfaitement repérées au dos de la carte. (3 liaisons de longueur identiques au plus court, I2S oblige, vers mon interface "métronome" avant d'attaquer mes 2 cartes de filtrage Najda)
J'utilise le très bon player Foobar sur un pc windows 7/64 équipé DSD, ne pas oublier de sélectionner les drivers "Xcore 208" (après leur installation sur le PC) dans l'interface de Foobar, sur lequel certains paramètres doivent être soigneusement ajustés, pour une écoute optimale comme le buffering qui peut être réduit au minimum soit 50ms.
