Introducing: Core NMS™.

Mastering engineers rely on pro software to manage noise when producing hi-res music. Signal quality is compromised by noise from various sources. Whether the playback format is tape, vinyl or digital, noise pollution is a systemic problem.

The Core is a new noise management solution that offers audiophiles the capability to optimize any audio device by using a unique plug & play interface.

Signal optimization.

Core NMS directly reduces electronic noise that are produced during playback. We have demonstrated (show reports below) the effectiveness of NMS to drive home the point, circuit noise pollution poses a deeper problem that is often missed. Noise distorts timbre, reduces the soundstage, and introduces fatigue listening.

NMS changes the acoustical landscape. Most of what is heard is filled with detail nuances that is typically masked by low level noise. This phenomenon does not instantly occur. But over a short time, the system response dramatically improves. The projection of instruments in space are better defined and a coherent dimensional fabric of musical tones ensues.

Core NMS also features a unique plug & play interface called U-Link™. This user friendly tool offers the unique ability to match devices and speakers to the music heard. To fully understand how this is possible you must experience this yourself. This is not a digital scheme, but it is based on analog shaping as opposed to filtering.

Digging deep into the Core.

The tech behind the Core is called Slipstream™. Slipstream is a shunting method that removes all distortion. The Core combines a multi-device noise shunting scheme, a calibration tool, and a noise shaping interface. As components coalesce musical information, the Core silently manages signal flow.

Core calibration is simple to master.

Calibration is essential for those who demand the highest possible performance. Core calibration is smart optimization.

Another way to view optimization is to understand its role in hifi. Optimization creates opportunities for the listener to fully engage in a profound manner. To re-discover your favorite musical tracks never gets old.

The Core is an important breakthrough for the demanding audiophile who cares about the music and seeks the best performance.

The Core's build quality.

The Core is a uni-body design. All internal parts are connected with high quality copper, silver and gold wire surrounded by our advance protective filtering. The Core's passive design and build quality insures a 5 year worry free performance.

Did you hear our demonstration at Capital Audiofest 2022-2023?

At Capital Audiofest 2023, Caprice Audio demonstrated how well a budget system performs with Core NMS. Please read Enjoy the Music Show report.

A system's retail price alone does not determine its true performance value. At Capital Audiofest this is your opportunity to hear Core NMS technology.

Finding signal in a noisy world can be a bridge too far without Core NMS. The lesson is don't ignore optimization/calibration if you truly wish to achieve the highest performance.

The Core System

Achieving system synergy is always an issue with audio components, whether they are audiophile high-end quality or not. The good news is the Core scales very well whether your system is built with cost no object or a budget limit.

Key summary.

Step 1. Core technology uses a proprietary component shunting system to reduce noise across multiple devices.

Step 2. We supply a flow chart for users showing how to operate the acoustical plug & play interface.

Step 3. A single Core makes it possible to optimize and choose the right synergy for any system. For the discerning listener whose Class A systems demand more, we recommend two Cores. Fine tuning to the smallest detail is quite illuminating.

Step 4. Combine the Core with our new Oasis cable™and achieve the lowest distortion with components that work together to make music fun.

No matter how good the signal, it's lost in a noisy world. Core NMS makes system integration possible at an affordable price.

Caprice Audio new Oasis interconnects and speaker cables combine with Core NMS will transform any system.

Where it began.

The Mosaic : Three years in development; two years consumer testing Wave stream technology.

Caprice Audio presented the original Mosaic Reference to headphone audiences in Denver, Washington, DC., Chicago and New York City. In Chicago, we received acknowledgement for outstanding performance from HiFi+ Editors Chris Martens and Alan Sircom.

Mosaic Reference reviews : Headphone.guru, Dagogo, and theSoundadvocate.
Note: Mosaic is available but with limited inventory.

Reviews and feedback

Our first product launch Axpona 2018.

Chris Martens Hi Fi+: "The new firm Caprice Audio showed its impressive new Mosaic Wave Stream hybrid Technology passive filter, which made for one of the more eye-opening demonstrations I heard at Canjam. Looking back over that last sentence it occurs to me that a more apt descriptor would be to call the Mosaic a passive noise floor reducer".
