Clari-Fi Technology Overview
Clari-fi cleans the sounds waves coming from your MP3 player, removing many of the unwanted byproducts of digital encoding, compression and AD/DA conversion.
The device employs a new technology that uses semiconductor chips to miniaturize, and drive down the cost of, accomplishing a similar type of progressive dynamic range compression to what previously could only be done with vacuum tubes.
At the heart of the clari-fi is a semiconductor chip featuring new voltage variable compression element (VVCE) technology. VVCE technology allows for real-time, progressive dynamic range compression of MP3, AAC & satellite radio signals, removing harmful digital artifacts, while remaining faithful to the music's original recorded tonal quality and audible dynamic range.
Additionally, VVCE technology is passive (powered by the audio signal), requiring no batteries for operation and having no negative effect on an MP3 player's battery life.
In the age of MP3 audio, the phenomenon of hearing fatigue has become increasingly widespread. Elimination of digital artifacts through progressive dynamic range compression not only reduces hearing fatigue, but also protects against the potential of long-term hearing damage caused by prolonged exposure to these artifacts. Clari-fi detects and eliminates digital distortion produced during MP3 playback in real-time. The cleaned up audio is then delivered to your headphones for an improved, safer and more enjoyable listening experience.
