These oscillators are activated individually to minimize noise and jitter, while their clock signals are carefully distributed to reduce jitter throughout the digital signal path.

Delivering an elevated musical performance at an accessible price requires a resolute dedication to precision and purpose. It demands a sharp focus on what truly serves the music, choosing only the features that matter and implementing them with care and expertise. This is Wattson Audio's design philosophy: achieving the highest performance by doing everything with intention and nothing without meaning.
