Last year, our flagship model, Lektor Joy , was evaluated as one of the best in market. It was honoured by prestige Statement award :

Lektor Joy became wanted by many audiophiles, so we made bit simplified model. Because new player gives lot fun of music too, we gave name of new Lektor : Fun

The concept of Lektor Fun is an close evolution of Lektor Joy - our the most successful flagship company player. The most components are common, but using glass/aluminium cabinet made player more affordable. Also, we reduced a bit a number of expencive components. However, both models uses same PCB, and parts.

Build in one compact box, it is versatile center of music system. It is both CD player, preamplifier, DAC .

All new players of Ancient Audio use CD-Pro8 drive, build by Austrian company Stream Unlimited Optical Storage.

CD player needs perfect timing of all signals. To keep jitter as low , as possible, precision clock by TentLabs was applied.

This converter has 7 different digital filters, to select by keyboard or remote control. So, dont leaving your sofa, you can set sound style according to current record.

Fun uses latest, 32 bit converter by ESS Technlogy. It is one DAC chip, in stereo mode. Each chanel uses four internal converters, connected in paralel.

Lektor Joy has also analog inputs, digital coaxial ( S/P DIF ) and USB 2.0 input. So, it is not just a CD player, but also a preamplifier and the DAC in one box.

Analog stage, between DAC chip and output sockets is an often underestimated element. Meanwhile, it was one of the ingredients of success of Lektors. New Lektor use solid state circuit, made by discrete MosFet transistors, instead of russian 6H30 vacuum tube. This amplifier was developed 15 years, testing different topologies and components. In fact , it is simlar to vacuum tubes, because Fet are also voltage controlled devices, similar to triode, but with bigger gain and bigger current. So, final solid state analog stage was outperformed previous, based on vacuum tubes . Also, it is trouble and mainterance free.

The final output amplifier has two gain settings, to fit output level to amplifier.

Just like in a tube system, famous V-Cap capacitors work at the output. The latest series of ODAM, oil impregnated caps are apply.

To correct delivery energy, it is one high current toroidal power transformer, supplying whole device.

A solid bank of ultra fast, low ESR capacitors, together with fast linear regulators deliver stable voltage and high current when needed.

All units of player are keeping together by very solid cabinet, made from natural, tempered glass, and aluminium. This solution gives beautiful, easy to mainternace finish, and resonance -free base.
