The Famous DAC The excellent sound quality and support for 24bit/ 192kHz is possible thanks to a single Hi-Fi DAC (Digital-to-Analogue Converter). The ColorFly team decided to use the CIRRUS logic CS4398, a high-end chipset usually only found in top-of-the-range Hi-Fi components costing many thousands of pounds.
This DAC offers outstanding levels of performance with excellent dynamic range up to 120dB and the ability to decode 24bit/192kHz audio for stunning sound quality. A Touch of Volume Nostalgia Colorfly used the flagship series pro-audio series of the famous ALPS volume potentiometer in Japan. The dust cover and grounding connection were ordered according to the specifications of the Pocket HIFI player. The rate of the volume error was lower than 5% in average after 1,000 hours. The volume error rates of the C4 was 15% lower than the ALPS official data.
Specific Signal Path C4 aims to offer hi-fi quality audio from a portable player no larger than the size of a cigarette pack. As such the assembly with circuit board, chips and even the capacitors must be selected very carefully - both for sound and size. Many music players use a signal chip with a main structure made of an MPU, DAC and earphone amplifier. This structure always processed the audio at the cost of great loss with voices sounding stiff, rigid and apathetic. Ever felt fatigue or tired of listening to your normal music player? C4 is the solution.
Human ecological problem. The internal structure of the C4 is much more complex than traditional MP3 player. In the Pocket HIFI player, the original audio must pass through 8 units from input to output for the sake of getting the perfect voice. Have a look at the diagram on the right to see how much more carefully considered the signal path is in the C4. Jitter Kill On the basic of top material and the complex unit designs, the structures which were made of by C4 clock generator, TCXO high-precision crystal Oscillators and the CS8422 SRC chip of CIRRUS output the unbelievable rate of jitter which was lower than 5ps. The circuit for Jitter Kill has been registered as a patent for the C4 Pocket HIFI player, making this ability quite unique.
First off I have to say for those used to the seamless way of iTunes and iPods this will come as something of a shock. You basically plug via USB the machine in to you MAC or PC and treat as an external drive. If you have an SD card plugged in to the Colorfly then that will show as a separate disc. You then copy folders for each album containing your WAV or FLAC files to the Colorfly or SD card. No USB3 or Thunderbolt support so it is slow to copy across.
