5 A Letter fr om Dan D’Agostino Dear Audio Enthusiast, Thank you for your purchase of the Kr ell Evolution 505 SACD/CD Player . Source components are the first, vital link in the audio signal chain, and an audio system can perform no better than the source allows.
6 SECTION ONE Evolution 505 Featur es and T echnology This section describes the innovative features and technology of the Evolution 505 SACD/CD Player , and defines CAST and other key terms used in this reference.
7 Revolutionary Kr ell CAST T echnology Current Audio Signal T ransmission, termed CAST , is a revolutionary method of connecting analog audio components for unparalleled sonic performance.
8 In essence, Krell Curr ent Mode maintains the integrity of the signal within the component and CAST preserves the transmitted signal between components. T ogether , CAST and Krell Curr ent Mode technologies unify separate Krell compo- nents into a single global circuit.
9 Definition of T erms The following are definitions of key terms used in this owner’ s reference: Inputs and Outputs Balanced A symmetrical input or output circuit that has equal impedance fr om both input terminals to a common ground r eference point.
10 T echnology Krell Curr ent Mode A proprietary Kr ell circuit topology in which the audio gain stages of a component operate in the current rather than the voltage domain. This unique technology pr o- vides the component with exceptional speed and a wide bandwidth.
11 Unpacking and Placement This section describes the procedur es for safely unpacking and placing your Evolution 505 SACD/CD Player . The Evolution 505 is shipped in 1 carton consist- ing of the SACD/CD Player and an accessory box. Opening the Evolution 505 Shipping Carton The Evolution 505 shipping carton measures 22 in.
