The future: the complete digital-analogue system

Loudspeakers
We employ the steepest possible filters so as to clearly define which chassis reproduces which pitch. For avoiding housing resonances from the very beginning and for decreasing diffraction and reflection at the housing, we take extremely intricate measures in housing technology. Every step, every measure for optimization is empirically scrutinized so as to adjust physical theory to what is heard in reality. 

Digital components
Digital components, such as CD transport and digital amplifiers, communicate via digital signals. One basic problem in signal transmission between digital components is jitter. Jitter is understood to mean fluctuations in the precision of transfer clock and causes, among others, nervous music reproduction and a loss of auditory spaciousness. All of our digital components communicate with extremely low jitter. Instead of the conventional jitter-prone S/PDIF interface, based on electrical conductors, they communicate exclusively on an alternative ultra-low-jitter interface on the basis of optical conductors.

Digital amplifiers - planned for 2012
Public funding was approved for the innovative approach of our remote-controllable digital amplifier, in which DA conversion will take place right at the loudspeaker.

Audio-PC - planned for 2012
A specially programmed RAM player software enables bit-perfect readout of digital music data stored on hard disks so as to obtain optimum sound from these storage means. The audio PC is not controlled via a monitor with a keyboard or a mouse, but like a CD player simply by means of a remote control.

CD transport - planned for 2012
FÖRSTER AUDIOTECHNIK replaces the electrical conductors of the S/PDIF interface by an alternative interface. The latter is based on optical conductors where clock data reach their destination independent from the audio data without jitter. In this way music is reproduced from a CD as genuinely as possible.
