Lindemann remains true to itself, relies on a consistent evolution and as for the mastermind Norbert Lindemann nothing is so good that it can’t be further improved upon. So following the Phono II, Lindemann's two Limetree Network players Network and Bridge also got updated.
While the second generation of the Limetree Bridge and Network Network players is now supported by new and better hardware, the Limetree Bridge II has also been optimize and the Network II has been revised in every respect, i.e. regarding features, ease of use, and sound, the company says.
Limetree Network II features a ES9038 Sabre converter module including ultra high resolution, integrated DPLL and SRC for jitter elimination, a MEMS femto-clock with 500 fs clock jitter, a high-quality analog level control, a high quality headphone amplifier with high output current, IR remote control for volume, mute and track selection. The device supports CD player operation – through external CD-ROM drive. Additionally, there is a separate volume control for headphone and line output, a balance control and some additional app settings, including seven different oversampling filters.
Bridge II offers adjustable sample-rate limit of the output in three steps 48kHz, 96kHz and 192kHz. The device offers two re-sampling modes, Native and Up-sampling. In Native mode the input sample-rate is not changed or (depending on the selected maximum sample-rate) divided by 2 or 4, while in Up-sampling mode the input sample-rate is upscaled to the highest possible value, i.e. multiplied by 1, 2 or 4. The support of DSD data has been ceased. If a conversion of DSD files into PCM is wanted, it should be done already using the playback software, e.g. Roon, Audirvana, J.River and others.
