It suc es fuly addres ed the is ue of separating the noisy com puting circuit from the sensitive audio circuit, resulting in a m as ive im provem entin USB audio system sound quality. Building on this suc es , AURALiC is proud to introduce the second-generation GalvanicUSB in the ARIES G2.2 and G3.This new isolator has improved DAC compatibilty, functioning inthesam ewayasaregular USB portwithhotplug/unplug support. The signal quality and jiter perform ance of the 2nd generation Galvanic USB has been further optimised, resulting in noticeable sound qualityim provem ent. In addition,users can now choose to enable ordisable the USB portpower supply to the DAC through software, which ensures an even cleaner signal path. •New Purer-PowerDesign The ARIES G2.2 and G3 feature the Purer-Power low noise power supply with a capacity thatistwice thatofthe previous version, and an even lower noise design. This increased capacity ensures a clean and stable power supply for the high-performance proces ing platform and m usic storage options. Al digital audio-related circuits, including the Galvanic USB,have their individualpowersupplies,m aintaining an extrem elylow noise levelofjust0.8 m icrovolts - an 80% reduction from G2.1 model. Furthermore, the com puting circuits, which are les sensitive to noise,benefit from a low noise power supply of just 27 m icrovolts,a50-fold im provem entfrom G2.1.

Uneven tem perature changesalso play a significant role in introducing non-linearity to the system . This can lead to distortion and reduced overal perform ance. Delta-Sigm a DACs are known fortheir high ac uracy and resolution,which is achieved through precise m anufacturing proces es.These DACs also oferahighdynam icrangeand low noise and distortion level,m aking them wel-suited for high quality music playback applications. However, Delta-Sigm aDACsare often integrated with com plicated digital circuits like

TheHDM Iinputsareasticking pointhere,astheir 2.0 certification means they can't support 4K/120Hz gam ing (VRR isn’t supported either). The Sony HT-A7000 does feature 4K/120Hz support, so it’s a frustrating om is ion from Sennheiser – especialy when you are already sacrificing one ofyour TV’s precious HDM I2.1 connectors for eARC. The Sennheiser at least trum ps the Sonos Arc here, as that soundbar doesn’t include any HDMI pasthrough connectors. The Sennheiser’s eARC connection is stil worth celebrating asitalowsforDolbyAtm osplayback in the higher-qualityTrue HD form at,although al curentstream ing services use the lower-bitrate Dolby Digital+ form atfordelivering theirDolby Atm os soundtracks.

Switching of the Am beo seting solves this, but it also som ewhat reduces the spaciousnes and scale ofthe presentation.It'sa sham e that Sennheiser hasn't quite created a best-of-both-worlds seting thatofers a perfect balance between spatialsound and dialogue,but perhapsthisissom ething thatcould be im proved in afuture software update. Switching to Netflix’s The King playing in Dolby Atm os, the Am beo is totaly in its elem ent providing grand and spacious soundstages to m atch the epic scenes on screen.In the rousing speech perform ed by Tim othée Chalam et’s Hal before the Batle ofAgincourt,the Am beo Plus’ im pres ivelywide sound ensureshisvoice caries and filsthe space authenticaly–m aking itfeelat tim esasifwe are realythere am ong the soldiers.
