The
PCMII was designed utilizing the Cyrus digital and analogue know-how and was built to the same exacting
standards as all Mission-Cyrus products. Of paramount consideration in
the design and manufacture of a compact disc player is the integrity and
sufficiency of the power supply section as well as the accuracy and consistency
of the digital to analogue convertors (DACs). Exceptional power supplies
were designed for every stage of the PCMII.
The four separate
power supplies give substantial power reserves and stability, ensuring that the
different signals are not compromised in any way and that the sensitive digital
and analogue circuitry, the laser/servo system and the control sections do not
interact.
Highly consistent
pre-selected DACs ensure superior linearity and purity of the output signals,
resulting in true fidelity in the reproduction of the recorded program
material. To further enhance the PCMII’s superior sonic Performance, the
system contains a variety of pioneering facilities. These include
remotely controlled; display “shutdown” to minimize digital traffic, absolute
“phase-invert” for optimum extraction of the recorded information and an
exceptionally transparent electronic volume control for ultimate ergonomics of
the system.
For the more
demanding audiophiles, the PCMII can also be upgraded by the addition of a
Cyrus PSX external power supply unit. Connection of the PSX to the PCMII
feeds dedicated clean power to the analogue section, resulting in availability
of more power reserves for other sections of the machine. The enormous
reservoir of pure power available to the analogue section of the PCMII makes
for increased refinement of the system.
