The Simaudio Moon Orion is the kind of digital source that doesn’t try to impress you in the first five minutes—it just keeps getting better the longer you listen. It has this calm, confident way of presenting music: smooth, open, and completely unforced, with none of that edgy, over-etched character that can make digital feel… well, digital. Instead, it leans into flow and musicality, letting vocals sit naturally and instruments breathe without spotlighting every detail. Whether you’re spinning CDs or using it as a DAC, the Orion has that rare ability to disappear, leaving you with nothing but the music and the quiet realization that you’ve been listening way longer than you planned.

- A hybrid analog / switch-mode power supply, with completely separate, fully regulated supplies for
the drive mechanism, digital circuits and analog circuits. (7 stages of regulation in total) - An integral shield for the Switch-Mode Power supply, ensuring no high frequency noise will interfere
with either the audio or video signals - Rack-mount-ready faceplate with removable aluminum cheeks covering the holes when not in use
- Full function bi-directional RS-232 port control and status for custom integration or automation
- 10-bit/54MHz oversampled video with active current-to-voltage converter and phase accurate
analog filtering - Support for both NTSC and PAL video formats
- Audiophile-grade 24-bit/192kHz digital-to-analog converter with 8X oversampling digital
filter for 2 channel analog audio output - SRS Labs TruSurround™ 3D surround DSP effects for optional analog audio outputs
- S/PDIF RCA and Optical Toslink digital audio outputs
- A complete array of different video output connections
- "Parental Control" setting to allow authorized access to specific DVD-Video discs
- FTS (Favorite Track Selection) programming to customize the playback of individual audio CD's by
allowing you to include or exclude specific tracks - Extremely rigid chassis construction to minimize the effects of external vibrations
- Accurate matching of the highest quality electronic components
- Very short signal paths to maintain the integrity of audio and video information
- Pure copper circuit board tracings with extremely low impedance characteristics
- Designed to be powered up at all times for optimal performance
- Low operating temperature for a longer than normal life expectancy.
- Liner Notes
- Offering extreme flexibility, the MOON Orion could be purchased as either a DVD Transport or a DVD Player, the latter including optional high quality analog audio outputs. To further enhance this modular concept, an optional progressive scan line doubler circuit using Faroudja's DCDi™ (Diagonal Correlation Deinterlacing) technology, was also available. Either or both of these options could be purchased with the transport or as an upgrade. By applying the same non-compromising design approach found in the more expensive Stellar DVD Player, the MOON Orion represents true state-of-the-art video performance with many of the same user-friendly features and functions.
