for Casablanca II Controller

Next generation DAC card allows Theta's premier controller to accommodate up to 12-channels of 24bit/384kHz digital audio

CES 2002, LAS VEGAS, January 8, 2002--Theta Digital, long acclaimed as a key innovative force in digital audio design, introduces the Xtreme DAC Card for the Casablanca II Cinema and Music Controller. The "Open Architecture" design of the Casablanca II processor facilitates field-upgrades via dealer-installable circuit cards.

The new Xtreme DAC board delivers the highest definition of any of the available DAC cards for the Casablanca II. Each Xtreme DAC card provides four channels of the highest quality balanced audio, capable of processing up to 24 bit/96kHz, 192kHz, and 384 kHz sources. Numerous refinements to the Superior card contribute to the overall sonic excellence of the Xtreme card.

This new DAC board allows the Casablanca II to be configured for up to 12 channels when using all of its three DAC card slots. It is possible to mix and match the Xtreme, Superior and Standard DAC cards. Casablanca II's flexible infrastructure allows users to configure and upgrade their Casablanca II to meet their personal needs with the exact number of channels and level of quality desired.

When configured for 12 channels these outputs include front left, center, and right; surround left and right; side left and right; front left and right subwoofer; surround left and right sub; and rear center or front center sub. Systems with two subwoofers can be configured as left/right or front/back.

The Xtreme card for the Casablanca II is priced at $3,990 per card and is currently available. It can be seen with Theta's other products at booth 23804 in the South Hall 1-2 of the Las Vegas Convention Center during the CES 2002.
