Sirius G2.1

Upsampling Processor

SIRIUS G2.1 operates on an open standard, upgrading both the processing power and the original performance envelope of their Digital-to-Analog Converters (DACs).

Digital-to-Analog Converter

As a specialized enhancement product, SIRIUS G2.1 stands as the fourth addition to the award-winning G2.1 Series of AURALiC products. As a system, the G2.1 stack, comprised of ARIES G2.1, VEGA G2.1, LEO GX.1 and SIRIUS G2.1 now represent one of the most advanced digital sources available for your high-performance system today.

SIRIUS G2.1 improves and optimizes signals from all sources, whether they are high-resolution files or streams from an inferior source or format. With SIRIUS G2.1, compressed, lossy, and poor recordings all have the potential to be improved, thereby upgrading your overall experience.

Because SIRIUS G2.1 utilizes an open standard protocol, it can also be connected to any brand of DAC, delivering a global variety of sample rates and formats among other functions and features. SIRIUS G2.1 will provide universal balance to a world of varied formats, resolutions, DAC chip topologies, and algorithm types.

A Universal Approach to High-Performance Across All Formats

SIRIUS G2.1 stands to improve your listening experience by employing advanced processing techniques. Poorly made recordings and even early digital recordings can benefit from SIRIUS G2.1’s impressive processing firepower. This process optimizes less-than pristine recordings by resampling the signal in a manner that potentially improves upon the experience of listening to an inferior recording.

Getting the Most From Your DAC

All DACs are built with a “sweet-spot,” a point where each DAC circuit excels at a resolution or format. DAC circuits built for DSD playback sound better when playing DSD and PCM DAC topologies perform better when fed PCM. By resampling to a format within the DAC’s “sweet spot,” the chip is allowed to play to its strengths, by lessening the processing requirement of the DAC.

A World First

SIRIUS G2.1 provides multiple inputs and outputs, allowing you to connect to a variety of digital sources and DACs. AURALiC’s spirit of innovation continues to put forth market-first features, as exemplified by SIRIUS G2.1’s unique ability to deliver an upsampled DSD signal to any compatible USB DAC, the first product in the world to do so.

Optimize by Equalizing

The most important factor affecting the quality of playback in your system is not the cables, components, or speakers, but instead the room in which you play your music. SIRIUS G2.1 can compensate for the room with its 8-band parametric equalizer feature, allowing you to optimize for your environment without spending tens of thousands on a complete room build or renovation.

Perfect the Imperfect

SIRIUS G2.1 offers a speaker placement function to compensate for real-world problems, allowing you to deal with barriers to perfect sound in the digital domain. While it’s necessary to place your speakers as best you can in the room first, our speaker placement function could mean the difference between poor and great sound in a less-than pristine environment.
