John Dawson, Arcam
Neil Harris, NXT
Malcolm Hawksford, University of Essex

Abstract:
With the growth of high resolution audio the enabling electronics and associated processing require ever higher levels of performance. This workshop will discuss a number of key technological and theoretical factors and present a variety of expert views targeted on the critical areas that ultimately limit system performance. Included will be topics on converter systems and fundamentals related to both LPCM and SACD, the amplifier-loudspeaker interface, digital equalization in a high resolution environment, and the loudspeaker-room interface. The workshop will include presentations from leading individuals who have extensive experience in the field of high performance audio enhanced no doubt with some controversial views.
