PS Audio PMG Signature SACD Player
Frequently Bought Together
Product Overview & Specifications
The PS Audio PMG Signature SACD Player represents the flagship optical disc transport in PS Audio’s history, engineered to extract raw data precision from SACD, CD, and high-resolution optical media. Utilizing a memory-based Digital Lens re-clocking architecture, FPGA-based processing, and full galvanic isolation, it completely decouples digital outputs from electrical noise and mechanical drive jitter.
Designed to deliver raw DSD data streams via I²S to compatible DACs, the transport also features dual XLR and dual BNC outputs that can operate in tandem for double-rate DoP transmission. Housed within a heavy chassis-within-a-chassis structure to isolate against acoustic and mechanical vibrations, it offers a reference-class digital output platform for physical disc collections and local USB file playback.
KEY FEATURES
- Galvanically Isolated Digital Outputs: Complete electrical isolation between the optical drive mechanism, digital signal processing, and output stages eliminates noise contamination.
- Memory-Based Digital Lens Architecture: Buffers and re-clocks all incoming digital audio data into near-field latches via FPGA, delivering ultra-low jitter stream delivery.
- Native DSD via I²S: Transmits uncompressed, native DSD streams directly from SACD layer discs to compatible PS Audio DACs over I²S HDMI connection.
- Dual-XLR & Dual-BNC Double-Rate DoP: Flexible digital outputs permit single and tandem balanced output configurations for higher-rate DSD over PCM (DoP) transmission.
- Chassis-Within-a-Chassis Construction: Heavy gauge internal sub-chassis dampens mechanical drive resonances and isolates optical pickup components from external acoustic feedback.
- Multi-Format & USB Media Playback: Reads SACD, CD, data DVDs, and USB flash drives supporting high-resolution PCM (up to 192kHz/24-bit) and DSD (up to DSD128/5.6MHz) files.
