This $2000 box uses a couple of 56001's to interpolate 7 more points in between the normal 44.1kHz sampled data on the CD. When used with a stable CD transport system, this box, and others like it (e.g. Wadia, Meridian), is supposed to give a smoother, more realistic, less strident, less 'digital' sounding analog signal (according to review in Stereophile magazine 8/90.)
