factor, the Solo mini provides premium performance in a discrete and
stylish unit. An ideal partner with the Muso speakers, the Solo Mini
system features a CD player, radio tuner (FM/DAB or FM/AM) and iPod
interface using the rDock or rLead. In addition a front panel USB input
allows USB memory devices to be played (MP3 and WMA files supported).
Using sophisticated circuitry taken from higher priced Arcam
components, the sound quality available from the Solo mini system is
without equal at the price. A Torroid based power supply ensures even
demanding bass lines are delivered without compromise to other
instruments or voices. Using the DACs and high precision clock from the
company’s award winning CD73, digital sources are processed with
extremely high precision allowing fine detail to be reproduced with
breathtaking clarity. The Solo mini uses the same high current power
amplifiers as the full size Solo music system ensuring a truly dynamic
