Auralic continues with some amazing new products, which include the Auralic Aries G3 - Network Streaming Processor. This streamer represents a generational shift in the technology platform while maintaining the understated elegance and classic design of the previous G series.
The Auralic Aries G3 incorporates the new Tesla G3 streaming platform, using a 64-bit architecture that enables it to achieve eight times the processing power of the previous version
The memory capacity has also been increased to 4 GB, and Direct Memory Access Technology (DMA) has been integrated into the system. These advancements are engineered in such a way in that all audio-related circuits to connect directly to the system memory, substantially reducing latency and jitter by 90% comparing to its predecessor.
New Design and Features
AURALiC has completely redesigned the Aries G3, incorporating over 90% new components to deliver unparalleled performance. The USB DAC output now boasts second-generation galvanic isolation technology, enhancing compatibility with a wide range of DACs and ensuring a more refined audio experience.
The new Purer-Power low noise power supply design features double the capacity of preceding G2.1 models and even lower noise levels, providing extremely stable and reliable power to the device. Moreover, the optional internal music storage is now based on NVMe SSD technology, delivering read and write speeds up to ten times faster than its predecessor.
The ARIES G3 also now supports USB 3.0 for external music storage, further expanding its capabilities and making it easier than ever to access and stream high-quality audio files.
The ARIES G3 is much more than just a transport or bridge, as it offers a host of features that enhance your digital listening experience. It boasts multiple inputs and a powerful co-processor that enables the product to function as a preamplifier for digital connections, providing comprehensive control over your audio system.
Proteus X1 Processor
With dual 60fs femto clocks powering its digital outputs, the ARIES G3 ensures that you experience the highest levels of precision and accuracy when listening to your music. In addition, it utilises AURALiC's state-of-the-art FPGA-based Proteus X1 co-processing platform, which optimizes the digital audio signal, removing harshness and improving the experience of listening.
As a result of this optimisation, your music gains greater substance, space, and dynamic range, providing a highly immersive and engaging listening experience. The ARIES G3 is the perfect addition to any high-end digital audio system, and its advanced features and exceptional performance make it a standout product in the market sector.
Product Compatibility
The ARIES G3 now features compatibility with the LEO GX.1 reference master clock, enabling users to achieve even greater levels of precision and accuracy when it comes to their digital audio outputs. By connecting to the LEO GX.1, these devices are able to take advantage of its advanced clocking technology, resulting in a more refined and nuanced audio reproduction.
This compatibility represents a significant enhancement to the already-impressive performance of the ARIES G3, allowing users to experience their digital audio collection with even greater clarity and depth.
Second-Generation Galvanic USB Isolation
This new isolator has improved DAC compatibility, functioning in the same way as a regular USB port with hot plug/unplug support. The signal quality and jitter performance of the 2nd generation Galvanic USB has been further optimised, resulting in noticeable sound quality improvement.
In addition, users can now choose to enable or disable the USB port power supply to the DAC through software, which ensures an even cleaner signal path.
NVMe Internal Storage
With the new Tesla G3 processing platform in place, ARIES G3 have upgraded their internal storage from traditional SATA based SSD or HDD to the most advanced NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) SSD storage option. This upgrade offers numerous benefits, including outstanding data transfer speeds and dependability, ensuring a seamless experience for storing and playing digital music.
