Antipodes Kala 50 Design The KALA 50 is the flagship of the KALA range, with an electronic design that is derived from the OLADRA, delivering compelling musical performance at a more affordable level. Every panel in the KALA 50 is precision machined from a thick solid plate of premium alloy for a perfect fit and finish, and outstanding vibration control. Performance Presenting how real musicians sound in real spaces allows the music’s message to get through with all of its creative potency. Discover more nuance in your favourite music, and immerse yourself in the artistry and passion that created each performance. Technology The KALA 50 employs two separate computing stages with isolated signal processing stages. Processing by two custom computers is followed by an isolated regeneration and clocking stage. Dual Computers The powerful custom KALA Server computer ensures snappy response to your commands, and extracts an outstanding level of musical detail to stream to the Player. The custom KALA Player computer presents a signal with natural timbre, saturated tonal density, wide dynamics and immersive musical expression. Signal Processing The digital signal received from the Player computer is isolated and regenerated using ultra-stable, and oven-controlled femto-second clocks. The USB output is reclocked separately from the synchronous outputs (S/PDIF, AES3 and I2S), employing different clock circuits based on the needs of each output type.
