The MOON Andromeda CD Player is a fully-balanced differential design, representing the next
generation of MOON high-performance audio components. Using the very finest electronic
components in conjunction with an astonishing 24-bit/705.6kHz internal upsampling circuit and several
newly developed proprietary technologies, the Andromeda brings the Redbook CD standard to previously
unattainable performance levels. Further raising the bar, the MOON Andromeda can be fully integrated
into a custom-install environment via an RS-232 port. As well, a plethora of user selectable cosmetic
options are available at the time of purchase.

Overseas MOON Andromeda RS
The RS series of MOON audio components benefit from an even higher standard of manufacturing process
than the regular MOON versions. All significant differences are contained within the circuitry and construction
of each model.
RS versions are built using different materials and parts in certain areas. For example, printed
circuit boards are of a higher temperature grade than that of the military specification FR-4 material
we normally use; Their traces are gold-plated instead of a tin/lead composite. As well, all capacitors
use improved dielectric materials.
MOON RS models meet and/or exceed stricter manufacturing processes as required to pass many
international safety standards such as those imposed by the E-U, Japan and South Korea. Cosmetically, the
ONLY difference is the RS logo on the front panel.
