Vision - January/February 2008 - (Page 43) The Official Press Preview of the International CES CES Booth: Venetian Tower #29-232 www.belcantodesign.com and www.sonicfocus.com The Bel Canto ULTRA-DOCK is a premier audiophile iPod / iPhone docking solution, utilizing Sonic Focus™ technology to upscale and refine compressed music and soundtracks to 96-kHz /24-bit quality. Other “high-end” docks often ignore the fundamental problem with using the iPod / iPhone as a content source – audio fidelity is degraded when music files are compressed. The adage “garbage in, garbage out” rings true with other solutions that simply pass the compressed audio through to the speakers; the magnified compression artifacts and lost nuances are simply unacceptable to the discriminating audiophile, claims the company. Sonic Focus Adaptive Dynamics™ technology upscales audio to 96-kHz /24-bit quality and recreates nuances and subtleties of the original performance that are commonly lost in data compression. Sparing no expense, the ULTRA-DOCK also includes exquisite hardware components: Analog Devices AD21369 with a 32-bit floatingpoint DSP core, 96-kHz /24-bit ADCs, and DACs with 110+ dB dynamic range. CES Booth: LVCC South Hall #20466 www.cablestogo.com RapidRun from Cables To Go is a modular cabling system that supports multiple signals over a single cable. In order to upgrade or change equipment, users only need to change the cable terminal. While making a switch from composite video to HDMI typically would require a new cable to be run, RapidRun only requires a new connector on the end of the cable. It saves installation time, accommodates last minute changes, reduces the likelihood of faulty terminations and evolves with different connection needs.
