Madison Streamer madison-iso-front-026F madison-front-043F madison-rear-045F madison-iso-front-026F 1/3 Neat, discrete, multi-source digital connectivity Like all Wattson Audio components, the Madison DAC/Controller is more capable, versatile and delivers more performance than its diminutive dimensions suggest. With the ability to accept and switch both streamed and S/PDIF digital material, it embodies a sophisticated DSP-driven DAC and both balanced and single-ended outputs – technology and topology you normally only find at many times the Madison’s price. Discrete, efficient and ecologically aware, Madison provides the heart of a forward-looking, high-performance, digital audio system. ​ Leveraging high-technology solutions to deliver astonishing musical performance at a remarkably approachable price is an exercise in extreme value-engineering: selecting what functions really matter and how they can best be implemented, what to include and what to exclude. Network replay and compatibility The Madison’s network interface employs Wattson Audio’s own, highly regarded streaming engine. It’s a proprietary solution we build around the Sitara processor from Texas Instruments, which depends on our own, updatable software and which you’ll find in some remarkably high-profile and expensive products. Capable of handling the ever-increasing number of network communication protocols, it has been continuously developed and updated since its introduction. Signal handling has been optimized to ensure audio data integrity, transmission reliability and support for Hi-Res file formats (PCM and DSD) without transcoding, all while delivering a smooth and responsive user experience. Alongside the streaming capability, Madison also provides a dedicated S/PDIF receiver decoder with both 75Ω RCA and TOSLink optical inputs for connection to legacy digital or AV sources. All digital circuitry is controlled by our own, exactingly executed clock, with twin oscillators for 44.1kHz and 48kHz (as well as any multiples thereof) each separated and independently filtered to reduce the possibility of noise and jitter. A Shark DSP chip is employed to implement our sophisticated up-sampling and spline-filtering algorithm. The short-tail filter profile ensures superb time-domain performance, while independent left and right channel WM8742 DACs preserve channel separation and spatial information. ​ The analog output stage A pair of op-amps per channel are employed to provide a robust, space efficient and cost effective analog output stage, equipped with both balanced XLR and single-ended RCA connections. Each and every stage or circuit block within the Madison benefits from the substantial on-board power supply filtering and reservoir capacitance while, with so much DSP power on hand, it makes perfect sense to rely on the clever, loss-less LEEDH digital volume control , rather than the added cost and questionable performance of an analog "pot". Ultimate versatility is provided by the Wattson Remote for Android and Wattson Music for iOS apps, which let you control your Madison, and respectively access your streaming sources, from your phone or tablet.

Emerson DIGITAL emerson-digital-iso-front-029F emerson-digital-front-047F emerson-iso-rear-030F emerson-digital-iso-front-029F 1/3 The clearest path from the internet to your system’s DAC Don’t be fooled by the small size and outward simplicity of the Emerson DIGITAL, its lack of facilities or the apparent simplicity of the task it has been designed to perform. There’s nothing simple about taking a music stream from the network and feeding it to a DAC – and an almost infinite capacity for error. Every aspect of the Emerson DIGITAL, from the components selected to the circuit topology, the milled from solid casework to the proprietary software, is based on our extensive work with many of the highest profile and most highly regarded brands on the market. This really is high-end performance and engineering distilled down to its most minimal form. Network replay and compatibility The Emerson DIGITAL’s network interface employs Wattson Audio’s own, highly regarded streaming engine. It’s a proprietary solution we build around the Sitara processor from Texas Instruments, which depends on our own, updatable software and which you’ll find in some remarkably high-profile and expensive products. This handles the ever-increasing number of network communication protocols and has been continuously developed and updated since its introduction. Signal handling has been optimized to ensure audio data integrity, transmission reliability and support for Hi-Res file formats without transcoding, all while delivering a smooth and responsive user experience. Emerson DIGITAL is a "bit-perfect" device, from its RJ45 input to its AES/EBU or S/PDIF output. We build the Emerson DIGITAL’s circuit around an exactingly executed internal clock, with a pair of superb, ultra low-noise oscillators, one to accommodate material sampled at a base frequency of 44.1kHz, the other for 48kHz (as well as any multiples thereof). The distribution of the clock signals has been carefully designed to minimize jitter throughout the digital audio signal path, while only the active oscillator is powered to minimize noise and jitter. ​ The digital output stages The provision of both S/PDIF and AES/EBU outputs makes the Emerson DIGITAL the perfect partner for any DAC or digital component that doesn’t offer a streaming input – or the perfect upgrade to DACs that do. In order to precisely match the specifications for both S/PDIF and AES/EBU, we use separate modulators for each output. High-speed output stages, synchronized by the main clock to further avoid jitter, and two wide-band RF transformers, ensure the rejection of common mode problems and deliver superior performance from the independent, isolated outputs. The sophisticated LEEDH loss-less digital volume control can also be selected for either output. Thanks to the Wattson Remote for Android and Wattson Music for iOS apps, you can control your Emerson ANALOG, and access your streaming sources from your phone or tablet, respectively. With its distinctive, compact design, carved from solid billet aluminium and protected by powder coating, the Emerson DIGITAL is a surprisingly solid yet discrete addition to any system. But its astonishing musical impact is hard to miss: musical AND engineering integrity delivered by a single, affordable unit.

Inside technologies The apparent simplicity of our streamers actually hides a complexity and a finesse far greater than it seems. From the choice of the internal components to the embedded software and circuit topologies, each step of the development process has been essential to enhance the listening experience. Concept Two different strategies have been used in our range of streamers. ​ Emerson The philosophy implemented in the Emerson is that of the straight wire: no sampling frequency conversion or data processing is applied, apart from volume control when used. The flow of data from the network interface is transmitted directly to the S/PDIF and AES/EBU modulators of the Emerson DIGITAL, or respectively to the digital-to-analog conversion chip in the case of the Emerson ANALOG. When properly implemented, this solution guarantees a transparent and coloration-free reproduciton. ​ Madison The Madison features a more complex architecture as it incorporates a signal processing unit (DSP) that hosts our proprietary oversampling process for optimizing input signals. This new interpolation algorithm benefits from the heritage of the iconic modules developed by Anagram Technologies. It significantly improves the digital-to-analogue conversion process in the time domain, without modifying the samples of the incoming data stream. Network interface The Madison, as well as both Emerson models leverage Engineered's streaming engine, a proprietary solution based on a Sitara processor from Texas Instruments. The embedded software, which handles the various network communication protocols and audio stream decoding, has been under continuous development for many years. Internal processes have been optimized to ensure audio data integrity, transmission reliability, support for Hi-Res file formats (PCM and DSD) without transcoding, and a smooth and responsive user experience at the same time. Clocks Two clock generators are used alternately, depending on whether the track being played back is sampled at a base frequency of 44.1kHz or 48kHz (as well as any multiples thereof). Our streamers do not include a variable oscillator or a synchronization loop. The stream of audio data is therefore directly cadenced by the active clock. ​ Additionally, the selected oscillators offer superlative performances, with extremely low phase noise in the audible bandwidth. The distribution of the clock signals has been carefully designed to minimize jitter throughout the digital audio signal path. Output stages The Emerson DIGITAL uses two separate modulators for the S/PDIF output and the AES/EBU output. This is the only way to meet the specifications of both standards without having to make compromises. High-speed output stages, synchronized by the main clock to avoid jitter, and two wide bande RF transformers ensure independent isolated outputs and a perfect rejection of common mode problems for superior performances. For the Emerson ANALOG , a DAC from Cirrus Logic was chosen. This is a well-proven integrated circuit capable of impressive playback quality when optimally implemented. Its power supply, output stages topology and filter circuits required a lot of adjustments, measurements and listening before validating the final solution in accordance with the product philosophy. Each channel of the Madison has its own separately powered, dual-differential digital-to-analog conversion chip. We chose the same Cirrus Logic DAC used in the Emerson ANALOG. The analogue filters are differential and calculated to minimise phase rotation while providing optimum attenuation of residual DAC switching noise. The output stages, based on the latest generation of operational amplifiers, are fully balanced and differential to achieve identical performance at both RCA and XLR outputs. Power supply The quality of the power supply for sensitive electronic circuits is a decisive factor for a device of this type. Once again, a close attention has been paid to the selection of the components and topologies. The choice of using an external adapter offers the advantage of keeping the mains voltage away from the core of the device. The DC voltage supplied by the external power adapter is smoothed by a series of common and differential mode filters and then delivered to the various components of the electronic board. Each critical section of the circuits benefits from a dedicated filtering and voltage regulator to avoid undesirable interactions. In the case of the Madison, no less than 15 low-noise voltage regulators ensure optimal operation of each critical section. ​ Finally, the power supplies for the clock generators, the synchronization circuits and the analog section are particularly well performing, with an extremely low electrical noise, less than 1µV RMS (measured in a frequency bandwidth from 10Hz to 100kHz). The Madison Lounge Edition outperforms the highly acclaimed sound quality of the "Classic" execution, thanks to the thoroughly reworked analogue circuits. The focus has been set on five different axes: New output stages Based on the concept of instrumentation amplifiers, with high input impedance and a fully differential gain stage, this topology allows to get the most out of the DAC chip. Linearity and accuracy are improved. Enhanced filtering The order and frequency of the analog low-pass filter have been increased in order to improve high frequency noise rejection while keeping an optimal phase response. ​ Stronger power supply The voltage regulators for the analog circuits have been adapted for the needs of these new output stages. Polymer capacitors choose over liquid electrolyte offer lower impedance and increased capacitance, thus providing a better handling of the ripple current. ​ Higher grade parts The analog section, although very compact, features components of very high specification. These consist of the best operational amplifiers on the market, metallized film capacitors in the signal path, polymer electrolytic capacitors for power supplies, etc. ​ Fine-tuned circuits layout Weeks were spent perfecting the schematics and layout of the electronic boards, in order to optimize the signal path, avoid disturbances, control critical impedances, and ultimately ensure that the sound quality is there! ​ External hybrid power supply This hybrid power supply of the Madison LE features a switching primary circuit whose input and output are filtered in differential and common mode. The output is controlled by a low-noise linear regulator and an interference rejection system. This concept ensures a very quiet power supply, and rapid response to load variations.

Emerson's installation guide Unboxing Placement and positioning Network and audio connections Getting started Content access and playback Firmware update Renaming Purpose of the two LEDs on the front panel Troubleshooting 1. Unboxing Your Emerson comes with the following elements: ​ 1 Emerson (DIGITAL or ANALOG model) 1 external power supply 5V DC, with a set of 4 interchangeable international sockets When you unpack your Emerson for the first time, carefully check that all these elements are present in the box and are not damaged. Should this be the case, or should an element be missing, please contact your Wattson Audio retailer or us directly. In any case, we strongly suggest that you keep the original packaging which has been designed to protect your Emerson during transportation. 2. Placement and positioning Your Emerson has been designed to be placed on the 4 rubber feet located under the case. We recommend that you place it on a flat, solid and stable surface. ​ Due to its very low electric consumption, the Emerson dissipates very little heat and does not include an active ventilation system. It may therefore be placed on the top of a furniture, as well as inside a cabinet. However, for its effective functioning, make sure you do not cover your Emerson, nor place it near a heat source or in full sun. 3. Network and audio connections Before you proceed to any wiring and connecting of your Emerson, we recommend that you ensure that it is switched off. This done, you may follow the steps indicated below in the stated order: Network connection Using a network cable (not supplied), connect one of your router’s output to the RJ45 connector at the rear of your Emerson. You will hear a “click” once the cable is correctly wired. ​ Audio connection Emerson DIGITAL Your Emerson features a 75 ohm S/PDIF coaxial output on RCA connector and a 110 ohm AES/EBU output on XLR connector, both equipped with an isolation transformer.This allows you to connect your Emerson to your digital-to-analog converter with an S/PDIF coaxial cable, respectively with an AES/EBU cable (not supplied). ​ Audio connection Emerson ANALOG Connect your Emerson to your amplifier or to your active loudspeakers using RCA analog cables (not supplied). 4. Getting started Once the connections to the network and to your audio installation have been set, your Emerson is ready to be switched on. The external power supply of the Emerson comes with 4 interchangeable international sockets. Choose the socket model that fits the standard of your country and slide it into the power supply. You will hear a "click" to confirm the correct position of the plug. Finally plug your Emerson into an AC outlet. ​ Once under tension, LED A slowly blinks during the start-up phase. Once your Emerson becomes operational, the LED remains switched on. You can learn more about the meaning of LEDs in the section below. DIGITAL LED B (PLAYBACK) LED A (POWER) ANALOG LED B (PLAYBACK) LED A (POWER) Your Emerson is now connected to the network and ready to stream some music. 5. Digital content access and playback Your Emerson is based on the UPnP/DLNA standard in order to stream audio content. You will thus have access to the content stocked on most of the market NAS (Synology, QNAP, Buffalo, Netgear,...), as well as on the Media Servers installable on a computer or integrated in some devices (MinimServer, twonky,...) . To access the content of a Media Server located on the same network as your Emerson, you will have to use a UPnP control application on your smartphone, tablet or computer. Wattson Audio has developed its own mobile solution Wattson Music , available for iOS (currently, Wattson Remote , the Android version of the Wattson Audio control app, only provides access to the device’s settings). You may consult the user guide of the Wattson Music app in order to get acquainted with its functioning. 6. Firmware update From time to time, we publish internal firmware updates of your Emerson. The aim is generally to bring slight improvements or corrections, thus ensuring the proper functioning of the Emerson over time. ​ You will find the reference of the currently installed version on the Web page of your Emerson: ​ Ensure that your Emerson is switched on and connected to your network. Connect on the Web page of your Emerson. The version number of the firmware is indicated at the end of the section "Firmware update". ​ Using this version number, you can check at any time if a newer firmware version is available for your Emerson model: ​ Visit the download page dedicated to the Emerson ANALOG or Emerson DIGITAL . Download the latest file update, if this is more recent that the one installed on your Emerson. Once downloaded, make sure the file is decompressed in a binary format (.bin). If the file is still compressed (.zip), use a utility to unzip it. ​ Once the file is downloaded, you may proceed to the update by following the steps listed below: ​ Ensure that your Emerson is switched on and connected to your network. Connect to the Web page of your Emerson. In the "Firmware update" section, click on the button "Select the .bin file" in order to indicate the location of the previously downloaded file and validate your choice. Click on the button "Launch the update". Follow the update process that is indicated on your screen. During this phase, LED A of your Emerson will blink for a few seconds. W ait for the status to display "Ready" before clicking on the "Back" button. Back on the main Web page of your Emerson, check that the firmware version number is indeed the one of the latest update. Finally, take the time to check the volume level set on the Emerson and adjust it if necessary. Sometimes the volume level is changed after an update. DIGITAL LED B (PLAYBACK) LED A (POWER) ANALOG LED B (PLAYBACK) LED A (POWER) You may then use your Emerson normally in order to fully enjoy your preferred musical environment. 7. Renaming In order to easily identify our products on the network, we give each of them a name corresponding to their model. Your Emerson appears on the network under the name "Emerson DIGITAL" or "Emerson ANALOG", according to the model you own. ​ You can customize this name at your convenience in two ways... ​ From the Wattson Music iOS app Open the Wattson Music app. On the Home screen, once the name of your Emerson is displayed, swipe-left on it and click on the "Rename" action. Enter the new name you wish to give to your Emerson by replacing the current one, then validate your change by hitting "Return" on the keyboard. ​ From the Wattson Remote Android app Open the Wattson Remote app and connect to your Emerson. Access the Settings from the upper right button. In the "Device" section of the Settings screen, click on "Friendly name", enter the new name you would like to give to your Emerson and validate your choice. After a few seconds, an alert box will be displayed to warn about the disconnection from the Emerson and a come back to the Home screen. As soon as the change is complete, your Emerson will be displayed with it new name in the devices list. ​ From your Emerson Web page Ensure that your Emerson is switched on and connected to your network. Connect to your Emerson Web page . In the section "Modification of the Friendly Name", enter the new name you wish to give your Emerson in the designated field and validate your choice by clicking on the "Rename" button. ​ Whatever way you choose, your Emerson will disappear from the network for a few seconds and reappear under its new name. 8. Purpose of the two LEDs on the front panel The Emerson displays two electroluminescent diodes (LED) on its front panel. Both LEDs vary according to the use of the Emerson. DIGITAL LED B (PLAYBACK) LED A (POWER) ANALOG LED B (PLAYBACK) LED A (POWER) LED A The LED is continuously switched off: The Emerson is switched off and will not be visible on the network. ​ The LED flashes slowly: This phase generally lasts for about ten seconds after having switched the Emerson on until it obtains a valid IP address on the network. If the Ethernet RJ45 cable is not connected or if the network is not operational, the LED continues to blink indefinitely. ​ The LED blinks fast: An update of the internal firmware is running on the Emerson. ​ The LED is continuously switched on in red: The Emerson is under tension and its IP address is valid. The Emerson is ready to play music. ​ LED B The LED is continuously switched off: No piece of music, nor any audio stream is currently read with the Emerson. The LED is in this state after a STOP command. ​ The LED blinks: The reading is currently on PAUSE on the Emerson. ​ The LED is continuously lit red: A piece of music or an audio stream is currently read. The LED is in this state after a PLAY command. The LED pulses slowly After 30 minutes of inactivity, the Emerson enters a "low power" mode. It exits this mode as soon as the playback of an audio stream resumes. This behavior was introduced in the Emerson firmwares dated "2023.01.24". Both LEDs A and B alternatively blinking This scenario occurs when a firmware update has failed. It is necessary to start the update procedure from the Emerson Web page. 9. Troubleshooting The Emerson is subject to very few malfunctions. However, your Emerson might not appear on your network for several causes. Explore and validate the following points in order to identify the origin of the problem. Power control When it is on, LED A on the Emerson’s front panel must be continuously switched on or blink. Should this not be the case, check the external power supply connections, ensuring that the main bloc is connected to an AC power outlet and that the electric plug on the Emerson’s back panel is fully inserted. Remove it and insert it again if required. Network connection control In case the Emerson cannot find a valid IP address on the network, LED A will slowly blink. If this is the case, start by checking the state of the Ethernet RJ45 cable at the rear of the Emerson in order to ensure that it is not damaged. Should the cable be in good shape, unplug it and replug it until to hear a "click" ensuring that it is well in place. If after several seconds the power LED still blinks, we recommend that you check the rest of your network installation. Home networks can be configured in a multitude of different ways and can be the source of many faults. Connect a network specialist if necessary. ​ Once the previous checks have been performed and validated, your Emerson must be powered and LED A must be continuously switched on. Should this not be the case, please contact your Wattson Audio retailer.

Emerson ANALOG emerson-analog-iso-front-031F emerson-analog-front-048F emerson-iso-rear-030F emerson-analog-iso-front-031F 1/3 From network to amplifier in a single box The Emerson ANALOG is a one-stop-shop when it comes to adding network replay to an existing system. Connect Emerson between the network and your amplifier and you are ready to go. But don’t be fooled by the Emerson ANALOG’s outward simplicity and ease of use. There’s nothing simple about taking a music stream from the network and feeding it directly to a line input on your amplifier. Many streaming solutions use multiple boxes cables and connections to achieve what the Emerson does in a single, small box. Therein lie the challenge and the beauty of the Wattson Audio solution. By eliminating multiple devices, cables, and connections, we also eliminate multiple sources of error. Instead, we control every aspect of the process, from the components selected to the circuit topology, the milled from solid casework to the proprietary software, based on our extensive work with many of the highest profile and most highly regarded brands on the market. The musical results speak for themselves, high-end performance and engineering distilled down to its most minimal form.

With only the active oscillator powered, the generation and distribution of the clock signals has been carefully designed to minimize jitter. The incoming data stream is fed directly to the Cyrus/Wolfson WM8742 DAC, which also delivers DSD to PCM conversion. A sophisticated, loss-less LEEDH adjustment of output level is also available, to provide perfect matching to your amplifier’s input sensitivity or a volume control if required. No output filtering is applied to the DAC, maintaining the straight-line, musically coherent nature of the device. Thanks to the Wattson Remote for Android and Wattson Music for iOS apps, you can control your Emerson ANALOG, and access your streaming sources from your phone or tablet, respectively. With its distinctive, compact design, carved from solid billet aluminium and protected by powder coating, the Emerson ANALOG is a surprisingly solid yet discrete addition to any system.
