Thanks for looking.
The following is excerpted from the Owner's Manual:
The NPC is a no-compromise approach to vinyl and analog reproduction in a high end
audio system. Recordists and archivists will also enjoy the performance quality of the NPC.
Analog Inputs: The NPC accepts inputs from any analog source such as a turntable, tuner, tape recorder, iPod, recording console, DVD audio outs or even the audio outputs of a VCR (does anyone own a VCR anymore?).
Output Digital or Analog: Once connected you can play vinyl discs, or any analog source, either directly into your preamplifier, through the NPC’s analog outputs, or DAC, mixing console, DSP, or digital pro music gear through the NPC’s multiple asynchronous digital outputs. You can also connect the NPC to your computer and RIP (record) content in single or double DSD as well as 44.1kHz/16 up to 192kHz/24 PCM through its asynchronous USB output.
DSD and PCM: The NPC produces both DSD and PCM from its digital outputs and high resolution fully balanced analog from its audio outputs. Use the NPC as the vinyl heart of your purely analog setup or digital setup.
Theory of Operation: The NPC combines a state-of-the-art Analog to Digital Converter along with an analog phono preamplifier. The two systems built into the NPC can be run independently of each other or in combination. The Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) is based on the Burr Brown PCM4222 Delta Sigma Analog to Digital Converter.
Always Converting to DSD: This architecture runs as a core DSD converter, sampling at a constant rate of 352,800Hz (5.6MHz), for any analog input signal. The ADC’s digital output can be either DSD (Direct Stream Digital) or PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) chosen through the front panel UI. Because the ADC is fundamentally a multi-bit DSD based ADC, conversion to PCM is handled post digital. This means that the NPC is always running at the highest speed and greatest bit depth, regardless of what the user selects on the front panel as the output.
Pure Analog Path: The analog phono preamplifier is a passive EQ 3-stage architecture based on a THAT 1532 programmable input stage The 1532 is a major breakthrough in performance with 60dB of programmable gain and noise specified at an incredibly low 1.9nV/√Hz and wide bandwidth to well over 1mHz. Cartridges can range from several hundred millivolts to just 0.3mv with little increase in noise. Following the passive RIAA EQ stage is a fully discrete, balanced, analog all FET output stage.
Built to the Highest Standards: The PS NuWave Phono Converters should provide years of trouble free performance for your connected equipment with the peace of mind it will always sound its best.
