The Jadis Symphonia Evolution CD player uses the Philips L1210/65 transport mechanism combined with a Bitstream DAC conversion system and a dedicated tube output stage employing 2 x ECC82/12AU7 tubes. This design delivers a warm and musically rich sound with gentle dynamics and strict accuracy. The unit is powered by three separate transformers for analog, digital, and display sections, each with its own power supply, rectifiers, and filtering capacitors, ensuring minimal interference and high fidelity. It features analog RCA outputs with an output voltage of 2V, a frequency response of 20Hz to 20kHz, channel separation of -80dB, and total harmonic distortion better than 108dB. The player includes a remote control and is housed in a solid aluminum anti-vibration chassis with high-quality metal side panels and a high-gloss black front panel with gold-colored symbols, combining elegant aesthetics with functional design. The unit weighs 9 kg and measures 45.5 x 40 x 12 cm. Power consumption is 45W. The Symphonia Evolution supports CD-Audio playback with a DAC sampling rate of 96 kHz and 43-bit DAC depth, providing a signal-to-noise ratio of 100 dB. It is noted for its refined sound quality, combining warmth and precision, making it a distinguished choice for audiophiles seeking tube sound in a CD player.
