Esoteric AZ-1 Manuale utente

Esoteric’s new model AZ-1, a “Class D” integrated digital amplifier

combined with a master clock sync generator, is powered by a “WB”

wound core transformer

A WB* power transformer is a wound core type transformer, a new technology which offers

highly efficient and outstanding performance for its size dimension.

The WB power transformer incorporates a very unique “reversed” design concept to its coil

and core structure in that the steel core is wound to the coil.

*WB = Wound Core type Transformer with Coil Bobbin

1. High speed, consistency and highly efficient power supply ability.

The WB transformer incorporates a wound steel core that surrounds the coil. This innovative

design ensures the maximum performance of the steel core.

Fig.1 below shows a simplified model of the magnetic paths of WB and conventional

transformers.

The WB design ensures the shortest magnetic path from the coil (because the coil surface

and the core surface are at a constant distance at the same radius) and the magnetic path

generated from the coil fully magnetizes the steel core without any loss. This creates a

power output supply is more constant than other designs.

From an audiophile perspective, the end result is similar to the high end sonic characteristics

achieved by tube equipped integrated power amplifiers.

Thanks to this magnetically efficient design, the WB transformer responds directly to the

requirements of current need, as requested by the drive circuit. This results in lossless power

output, high speed response and ultra efficient power supply ability.

2. Small size dimension

Thanks to the magnetically efficient design, the WB transformer can draw larger current

compared to conventional transformers of the same size.

3. Low leakage of magnetic flux, vibration and noise

The WB transformer incorporates a very smooth core surface without any cutting surface or

joint. This core design keeps the leakage of magnetic flux, vibration and noise extremely low

(compared to conventional transformers where the core is composed of several parts).

4. The bottom line for the Esoteric AZ-1

The WB transformer and audio output stage design, unique to Esoteric’s model AZ-1,

provides “tube like” audio performance from a “Class D,” integrated digital amplifier. The WB

transformer enables ultra efficient power output, high speed response time and greatly

reduced potential for noise, magnetic flux leakage and vibration.

With the added feature of a WORD clock output signal, timing between a compatible DAC

and transport can be re-synchronized to +/- 1ppm. The AZ-1 includes inputs for up to 6

digital devices and 3 line level inputs, including magnetic phono. The product is truly unique!
