Am I sure about that? No, not at all. Not least because I've never seen that anywhere either.
But it's what Joe Rasmussen told about 30 of us at the event last night at a public meeting. I assume he knows what he is talking about as he works with Oppo. He, of course, could be mistaken, but I doubt it.
Joe went on to say that Rotel will never release a version of the player themselves, as part of the agreement. So in a sense, this could be seen as a Rotel/Oppo player. Other companies (I think he mentioned Cambridge Audio) have used/are using/are about to use some of the technology in the basic Oppo player, but I have no idea what that means.
I sense that one may see more versions of this post-DAC filter and twin-clock combination appearing in the next generation of Sabre players from boutique audio houses. But that's just a guess of mine.
