GRANDIOSO K1X
"Two revolutions integrated. Two revolutions connecting people to music... The VRDS-ATLAS and Master Sound Discrete DAC - now come to fruition in an integrated player that carries the name… Grandioso ( Grandioso (music): Grand or noble)."
An unprecedented transport mechanism that invites you to the furthest reaches of sound.
VRDS (Vibration-Free Rigid Disc-Clamping System) is Esoteric's unique CD/Super Audio CD transport technology, which has been specially designed to clamp the disc to a same-diameter turntable in order to eliminate the disc's rotational vibration, as well as any extraneous vibration emanating from the mechanism itself. It also corrects any warpage of the disc, dramatically improving the accuracy of both the optical pickup and the disc pit layer's corresponding optical axis, while also minimizing servo current. This all adds up to dramatically reduced disc read error for exceptional audio quality.
The new VRDS-ATLAS platform boasts unprecedented mechanical perfection and superlative audio quality, with heavyweight construction that is fully 127% heavier than previous iterations (6.6kg for the mechanism alone, and 13.5kg including its base). This highest rigidity and weight in the history of VRDS mechanisms has the effect of greatly reducing any and all vibration that could adversely affect audio quality. The transport's larger new side panels and bridge are all formed of SS400 steel, and its turntable is made from duralumin, which is renowned for its excellent sound quality. Also, its spindle features a newly designed thrust bearing system, for a friction-free one-point spindle support system that ensures smooth, noiseless turntable rotation.
Esoteric's impressive VRDS-ATLAS is the quietest and most elegant transport in the history of VRDS. The key to achieving this was a resolute focus on mechanical grounding technology that more effectively reduces vibration.
Adopting a wide & low-profile design for the entire mechanism helped achieve a lower center-of-gravity, and relocating the turntable motor to below the turntable from its previous position above the bridge dramatically shortened the route for grounding vibration and reducing mechanical noise. Tray hollowing has also been minimized for increased rigidity, and special stoppers made from vibration-absorbing elastomer cancel out resonance when the tray is stored.
The Grandioso K1's mighty power supply was the key to its powerful and profound three-dimensional sound. With the introduction of its new X version, this power supply has been dramatically enhanced to add further depth to its exceptional audio tone. Its built-in D/A converter features independent power transformers for left and right channels, and the K1X includes a total of four independent toroidal power supply transformers. Furthermore, technologies cultivated in the development of the Grandioso P1X/D1X have also been adopted, including a new low-feedback DC power supply regulator featuring a discrete circuit configuration which contributes to its powerful open sound. The K1X also contains a total of 76 EDLC* supercapacitors (with a total capacity of 2,050,000µF or 2.05F). This greatly increased power supply capacity provides a tremendously improved sound quality for exceptional resolution in the lower frequency ranges.
*EDLC (Electric Double-Layer Capacitor):A special type of capacitor boasting an astoundingly high capacity compared to the electrolytic capacitors used in conventional audio equipment.
The VRDS-ATLAS transport mechanism is centrally located within the chassis, where it is fixed to a 5mm-thick steel bottom plate and supported by four proprietary pinpoint feet (patent no. 4075477 and 3778108). This effectively isolates the rotational mechanism from vibration. The internal structure of the chassis features a double deck design, with the audio boards on the upper level and power supply circuits and transformers on the lower level to minimize magnetic flux leakage and vibration, while also shortening the power supply wiring.
Semi-Floating Top Panel
The enclosure's top panel utilizes a screwless semi-floating structure that further contributes to an open and expansive sound.
Master Sound Discrete DAC
Bringing out all the dynamics and energy of the original master recordings.
Master Sound Discrete DAC Bringing out all the dynamics and energy of music.
Unattainable by integrated chips, our goal was to assemble carefully selected and tested discrete components into a complete circuit that could perfectly reproduce all the dynamics and energy of music. Our top engineering teams put their pride on the line to design and produce a quality of sound that can only be found in the Master Sound Discrete DAC discrete D/A converter.
The K1X's Master Sound Discrete DAC is the most revolutionary two-channel stereo DAC circuit in Esoteric's history, and is based on the original circuit developed for the Grandioso D1X monaural D/A converter.
As an extension of the D1X's design philosophy, a luxurious volume of materials have been invested in the construction of K1X's Master Sound Discrete DAC. For example, it features 32 separate elements for each channel. Key components such as a clock driver, logic circuit, and capacitors and resistors, are kept independent for each of these 32 elements to ensure the purest output without no loss of musical energy.
The K1X's independently developed Δ∑ modulator supports 64-bit/512Fs and the latest high-end digital formats, including of 22.5MHz DSD and 768kHz PCM signals. The FPGA's* dedicated digital processing algorithm was developed exclusively for the Master Sound Discrete DAC, and has been fully optimized for outstanding playback of both DSD and PCM digital audio data.
Advanced Quality Control
With a discrete DAC, where component tolerances are directly linked to arithmetic precision, highly advanced quality control is also required for the manufacture of electronic circuit boards. Esoteric's own in-house factory boasts some of the world's leading board mounting technologies, such as soldering performed in an oxygen-free furnace, which is located in a clean room featuring the same level of cleanliness found in a hospital operating room. Technologies cultivated in the production of electronic circuit boards for audio, medical, aerospace, and defense industries support the high production quality of the Master Sound Discrete DAC.
The ESOTERIC-HCLD output buffer amplifier boasts an amazingly high-speed slew rate (response speed) of 2,000V/µs. Current transmission and speed—the most important factors for an analog output circuit—have been pushed to the limits to reproduce the reality of music with a dynamic range that is truly breathtaking.
In addition to its XLR and RCA amplifier line connections, the K1X also features the ES-LINK Analog method of current transmission. Taking full advantage of the HCLD buffer circuit's powerful current supply makes the K1X less susceptible to the detrimental effects of impedance on the signal route. It also enables a more powerful signal transmission, fully driving connected compatible devices.
A high-accuracy clock circuit is the key to achieving superlative sound quality in digital audio playback. A top-quality clock circuit is truly the heart of any high-end digital player. The K1X now features the superb Grandioso Custom VCXO II clock originally developed for the Grandioso P1X/D1X. This clock was developed with carefully considered modifications made to the earlier model's internal circuitry and components to more vividly emphasize the K1X's ultimate audio quality while further boasting remarkably low phase noise and excellent center precision (±0.5ppm).
The K1X can also be connected to the Grandioso G1 Master Clock Generator for playback, with internal circuits synchronized to a 10MHz clock that features the same high precision as an atomic clock, enabling further pursuit of high sound quality.
D/A Converter Functions for External Input, D/D Conversion, MQA Support & USB Input
In addition to its coaxial and optical inputs, the K1X also features a USB type-B port that is compatible with both 22.5MHz DSD and 768kHz/32-bit PCM asynchronous signal transmission, thus enabling it to also be used as a stand-alone D/A converter. Functions are provided for upsampling a PCM digital signal to 2/4/8/16× (max. 768kHz) and converting PCM to DSD. The K1X is also compatible with MQA-CD decode playback and full MQA decoding for playback of various digital inputs including USB.*
*MQA certification is pending as of August, 2019, and support is scheduled to be added via a software update as soon as certification is complete.

【專題訪問 Interview Feature】2019年度香港大學學生會周年大選中央幹事會候選常務祕書麥嘉晉訪問 | Interview with Mak Ka Chun Eugene, the Proposed General Secretary of Executive Committee, The Hong Kong University Students’ Union of Annual Election 2019
(Please scroll down for English version.)
麥嘉晉同學以一人莊姿態參選中央幹事會常務祕書一職,為除候選內閣「蒼傲」外,另一參選周年大選中央幹事會席位的單位。麥同學接受本台訪問,就其一人內閣的理念、參選原因、和自身網上流出片段解話,並就反對香港獨立及支持訂立國歌法作闡述。
訪問節錄如下:
1. 對常務祕書一職的了解?
我並不對常務祕書,即香港大學學生會中央幹事會的常務祕書的職責有太清楚的認識。
2. 為何參選常務祕書而非其他職位?
我參選常務祕書的原因是因為我認為自己並不能勝任主席(正確名稱應為會長)一職,我是一個小心、心思細密的人,能力主要在於常務祕書方面。
3. 你認為自己被釣狗公及流出不雅影片會否對選情有影響?
對於這件事,我明白大家對我有負面印象,我希望向對我有負面印象的人道歉,因為我令到香港大學的聲譽受損。但這件事也令到有些人認識了我,客觀而言,他們都會明白這是一個失誤,並知道這事並不影響我的政治理念或影響我向他們服務。我亦明白有人會因這件事對我有負面印象,我會努力透過選舉工程爭取選民對我的信心。
(參考資料:[有圖]求智囊團撚狗公 https://lihkg.com/t/640617/1?ref=android )
4. 你心目中學生會的立場是?
我們必須多考慮多角度及不同持份者的意見才作出表態,所以我不能肯定有幸當選後會作出什麼取態。我個人不太熱衷於政治方面,在大部分議題方面我的路線比較中間偏左。
5. 你為何決定單獨參選?
因為即使我未能組成內閣,我都希望做到我參選的目的,就是希望令人看到香港大學學生會並非像外界看來激進。我希望能令人看到香港大學的學生並不是只得一種思路,大家都有獨立思想,所以即使只有一人亦會參選。
6. 假若四位候選幹事同事當選,如何處理意見分歧?
如果日後四位候選人有幸一同當選,但就不同議題有相反意見的話,我認為政治取態並非港大學生會惟一職務,其他職務例如學生會組織的行政事務、和為學生提供福利、服務學生等等。所以我認為並不會單因為取態不同而辭職,其他事項不可以置之不理。
7. 你的政治光譜/政治立場是什麼?
我個人本身並不太熱衷於參與政治方面,在大部分議題我的立場傾向於中間偏左。
8. 你可否用香港的政治組織/政治人物代表自己?
個人而言我並不激進,所以我認為以前的民主黨可能比較能反映我現在的立場。如果從人物方面我認為湯家驊先生可能比較能反映到我,因為湯家驊先生和我一樣是比較會從多角度處事的人,其次他比較冷靜,不會草率進行評論和反應,而他亦不會就所有事情有既定立場,對不合理或不認該支持的事情他不會基於他泛民主派的立場而違背自己的理念,所以湯家驊先生及以前的公民黨會比較能反映和接近我的政治立場。
9. 你對初一事件的看法?
暫時可見旺角暴動或年初一事件方面,很多人都不太願意承擔自己的責任,而我認為很多參加者都罔顧了香港大眾的聲音和理念,亦危害了其他人的安全,我個人並不支持或同意這件事,如有人對這方面有意見的話,我希望大家能以理性方法表達意見。
10. 你是否支持香港獨立?
首先我不同意和不支持香港獨立。對於香港獨立我有幾點要回應。我不支持香港獨立的原因是因為,我認為香港多年來和中國有關係,香港在多方面亦須要中國的幫助,不論是經濟、社會、還是政策配套,我們都必須和中國有緊密連繫。當然我有不同意中國的政策,如對言論自由的打壓和對人權的打壓等,但我認為不應因反對中國而原全斷絕關係,始終歷史上我們和中國有非常緊密的聯繫,不可以因一些事去全盤否定中國,同時我認為香港獨立在法律上並不合法,所以我不會支持這種不合法的東西出現。因為香港獨立並不合法再加上這事並不合適,所以我並不支持香港獨立。但我認為可在可容許的空間內討論,例如學術層面或政治方面,我認為只要不鼓吹港獨,單純理性討論是可容許的,因為這是一種思想,而思想應可被討論。
11. 你是否同意訂立國歌法?
我認為國歌法的立法原意合理,並且應該,大家只要願意去尊重國歌和願意為自己的行為負責,我認為國歌法的立法有應該要的,因為我認為應尊重國歌。除了利用國歌表達意見外,還有很多意見表達的方式,雖然國歌法有機會收窄了大家的言論自由,但大家仍有其他對中國表達意見的渠道,所以我認為國歌法的影響並非如此誇張。
12. 你是否同意就廿三條法?
暫時短期而言不該對廿三條立法,但如果日後香港社會出現了嚴重的安全問題,而現時的法律制度未能控制,我認為廿三條立法......未必是廿三條立法,但應保障社會安全,加強執法,修改現有法律去增強它的權力、增強它的阻嚇性,希望能保障社會的安全。
Mak Ka Chun Eugene is running as a one-man cabinet in the Annual Election 2019. He is another candidate unit running for a seat in the Union’s Executive Committee, besides Prism, the proposed Cabinet of Executive Committee, The Hong Kong University Students’ Union in Annual Election 2019. Campus TV has interviewed with Mak, with regards to his vision of a one-man cabinet, the reason to run as candidate, and the leakage of his personal videos; he has also elaborated on his disagreeing with Hong Kong independence and supporting the enactment of the National Anthem Bill.
The interview excerpts are as follows:
1. What is your understanding of the post of General Secretary?
I might not have too clear of an understanding about the post of General Secretary, i.e. the duties of the General Secretary of Executive Committee, The Hong Kong University Students’ Union.
2. Why did you choose to run for the post of the General Secretary out of other posts?
The reason for running for the General Secretary is because I do not believe I have what it takes to assume the post of the Chairperson (the correct title should be: “President”). I am a rather careful and meticulous person, and my abilities are more in line with the area of the General Secretary, such as word/ document processing, and handling emails.
3. Do you think your incident* about being exposed as a womanizer, and the leakage of your explicit videos have an impact on your election campaign?
I understand that I have left a negative impression on some people from this incident; I would like to apologize to these people, because I have scathed the reputation of the University as a student of the University. In addition, this incident has made me known to public. Objectively speaking, some might consider the incident as a mistake, and that it would not affect my political stance or my service to them (members of the Students’ Union). Meanwhile, I do recognize that this incident has created a negative impression of myself, I will try my best to gain the trust of people from my election campaign.
*Mak Ka Chun Eugene was allegedly exposed as a womanizer, some explicit photos and videos of Mak in a conversation have been leaked by an anonymous account onto Lihkg, a public forum in Hong Kong.
4. What is the position of the Students’ Union in your eyes?
We should take into considerations the various perspectives and stakeholders’ opinions before declaring a stance, therefore I am not sure what I will be standing for should I be elected. Personally, I am not too keen on politics, but I would say that for most issues, I take more of a centre-left position.
5. Why did you decide to run as an independent candidate?
Despite not having formed a cabinet, I wish to fulfill my election aim: I hope to show the society how The Hong Kong University Students’ Union is not as radical and one-sidedly biased as how the society perceives it to be. I hope people could see that the Union has not only one path of thinking, everybody has individual thinking. Therefore, I would run as candidate even if I am doing so alone.
6. Should four proposed candidates of the Executive Committee be elected, how would discrepancy of views be dealt with?
If all four candidates have the honour to be elected, and have disparate views on issues, I think (acting on one’s) political views is not the Union’s only duty, there are other duties including administrative work, representing students, providing students’ welfare etc. Therefore, I do not think I would resign solely over a discrepancy on political views, other duties should not be neglected.
7. Where do you stand on the political spectrum? / How would you define your political stance?
I am not too keen on politics, but I would say that for most issues, I take more of a centre-left position.
8. Could you use a political group or a political figure in Hong Kong to represent yourself?
I think it is quite difficult to say, because Hong Kong’s politics has been so polarizing. Personally, I do not consider myself radical (politically), so I think the earlier Democratic Party better represents my current stance. In terms of a political figure, I think Mr Ronny Tong Ka-wah can better represent me, because like Tong, I know how to handle matters from multiple perspectives. Besides, Tong is a rather collected politician, he knows not to carelessly react and comment; he does not hold a predetermined stance towards issues, and he does not let his pan-democratic background dictate his views on matters that he thinks are unreasonable or not deserving of his support. Therefore, Mr Ronny Tong Ka-wah and the earlier Democratic Party is better proximate and representative of my political stance.
9. What are your views on the Mong Kok Incident in 2016?
What I observe currently about the Mong Kok Riot, or my apologies, it should be the Mong Kok Incident, is that many people are unwilling to bear responsibility for their actions, and I think a lot of the participants (of the incident) were rather reckless and negligent in considering the majority of Hong Kong’s opinion, they have also harmed the safety of many. I personally do not support nor agree with this action. However, I believe all voices should be heard, if anyone has an opinion on an issue, I hope they can convey them in a rational manner.
10. Do you support Hong Kong independence?
Firstly, I do not agree with nor support Hong Kong independence, but I think that the idea itself can be discussed on an academic or political level, as long as we are not encouraging the actualisation of it, we can have purely theoretical discussion because it is like any other thought or ideology that can be discussed. In response to Hong Kong independence, I have a few points to raise.
I do not support Hong Kong independence because I think that Hong Kong has established long years of relationship with China, Hong Kong needs the support of China in multiple areas, no matter economic, social, or policy-wise. We should always have a close connection to China. Certainly, I do not agree with all of China’s policies, for example the oppression of freedom of speech and of human rights, but I do not think we should cut ties with China entirely based on these disagreements. Ultimately, China and we have had a very close affiliation historically. At the same time, I think that Hong Kong independence is not legally justified, so I would not support such an illegal action. Because Hong Kong independence is not legal and not suitable, I do not support it.
11. Do you agree with the enactment of the National Anthem Bill?
I think the motive of the enacting the National Anthem Bill is justified, and (the act) should be encouraged. As long as everyone is willing to respect the national anthem and to bear responsibility for their own actions, I think the enactment of the National Anthem Bill is necessary, because I respect the national anthem. Besides using the national anthem as a form of self-expression (of political opinions or views), there are many other ways to communicate an opinion. Although freedom of speech might be harmed under the enactment of the bill, there are still other methods to convey our opinions about China, so I do not foresee the effect of the National Anthem Bill to be as severe as it is portrayed to be.
12. Do you agree with the enactment of Article 23?
Currently and in the short run, Article 23 should not be enacted. However, if Hong Kong experiences a problem of safety in the future, one that the current legal system has no power to control, I think that it may call for Article 23… not necessarily Article 23, but an enhanced enforcement of the law, the law should be amended to strengthen its power and deterring functions to ensure the safety of our society.

Week 3 Vlog is up! I have about 9 weeks left till my second comp.
Before that I just want to thank Women's Health Malaysia again for inviting me to be on the cover of their magazine. I also found out it would be their last issue for the Malaysian side. I'm saddened to hear the news cause Women's Health and Men's Health have been two of my fav magazines. But I wish the media company all the best :)
Lots went on last and the week was a rediscovery about food. I learnt that I will never eat butterfish again - at least not in massive quantities, because it gave me "anal leakage"! Yes you heard me right, oil was coming out because my body wasn't able to absorb the fat nutrients. Most horrid experience and I'm telling you this because I don't want you to get a yellow stain next time, because you weren't aware bout how butterfish / white tuna / escalar can effect you. Its due to the fish eating Wax Esters which they can't metabolise properly, hence us humans would have digestive issues with it too. If possible, just don't eat that fish again.
Second thing i learnt this week was on the difference of a refeed and a cheatmeal. I used to have my epic cheatmeals in my previous comp prep, every Sunday night. The difference- a refeed controls how much i'm eating and what kind of macro i'm increasing after maintaining a particular diet plan for about 2-3 weeks. Which helps better in the fat loss process and for those of us who are tracking macros through IIFYM - "If it Fits Your Macros". The cheatmeals may or may not work to my advantage as I've come to learn, at least while prepping for a comp.
I always encourage anyone to try out IIFYM cause you get to learn a lot about what works for your body. With that I leave you with the latest vlog. Thank you for watching and I do hope you found the video helpful. :) Please do ask questions or give me feedback on how to improve my videos.
Speak to you next Monday!
