EIDOS EXCELLENCE SACD
High-Fidelity, Redefined
Pure Precision
Eidos Excellence SACD redefines what a physical audio player can achieve. It embodies the essence of balance—delivering uncompromising performance in a mid-range format while retaining the pedigree and refinement of our most prestigious creation.
Musical Truth
At the heart of the Eidos Excellence SACD lies the rare union of ultra-precise electronic architecture and mechanical transport design. This synergy ensures fidelity, quietness, and stability that elevate the player into a category of its own. The SACD format, which stores audio in the high-resolution DSD standard at 2.8 MHz, is reproduced with exceptional purity thanks to the low-jitter, vibration-suppressed transport and the dedicated per-channel DACs—among the most precise SACD player available today.
The Art of SACD, Perfected
In a world increasingly shifting towards the immaterial, the Eidos Excellence SACD stands as a testament to the enduring value of physical formats. Its transport employs the Suppress Vibration Hybrid mechanism, ensuring whisper-quiet operation and uncompromising precision.
Goldmund’s commitment ensures that the highest standard of playback for physical media remains available to music lovers who demand nothing less than excellence.
Energy, Reimagined for Music
The Eidos Excellence SACD benefits from a power supply architecture born of Goldmund’s decades of research. Developed by Goldmund, each voltage is generated independently for the left and right channels, creating an exceptionally quiet signal path.
By generating its own energy reserves—with customized transformers and a multi-stage design—the system eliminates measurable noise, isolates the player from distortions in the AC power supply, and maintains independence from mains power instabilities—a feat conventional designs cannot match.
Power Without Noise
The Dual-Box Design of the power supply chassis neutralizes electromagnetic emissions, ensuring absolute silence. A bespoke shielded cable—derived from the same family used in our other dual box electronics such as the Mimesis Excellence—guarantees immaculate energy transfer.
This dedication to silence and stability allows the Eidos Excellence SACD to disappear as a machine, leaving only the truth of the music.
Infinite Versatility
The Eidos Excellence is engineered to embrace both timeless physical formats and state-of-the-art digital resolutions:
Discs: SACD, CD, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R*/-RW*/+R*/+RW* (audio data files only)
Formats: PCM up to 384 kHz and DSD up to DSD512.
This versatility ensures that whether revisiting a treasured collection or exploring the latest high-resolution recordings, every playback is presented with absolute fidelity.
The culmination of these features is a playback experience that captures every nuance of the recording, with a soundstage that feels infinite.
