SuperNova CD Player
|
|  
|
The MOON SuperNova CD Player is a fully-balanced differential design, representing the next
generation of MOON high-performance audio components. The SuperNova raises the bar on
the CD Red Book digital standard, producing an astonishing level of sonic performance with no equal
in its price range. This achievement is the result of extensive R&D yielding new proprietary technologies,
the use of the very finest electronic parts available and a powerful 24-bit/352.8kHz internal upsampling
circuit. Further raising the bar, the MOON SuperNova 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 SuperNova 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.
