The experience of Wadax on the design of top-performance DACs has been critical to the design and conceptualization of the Atlantis Server. Contrary to what can be intuitively thought, Server design AND construction play a key role in final musical performance.

The list of hardware parameters that have an influence on final results is long and they are dependent on each other: grounding, power supply, clocking, thermal design, mechanical construction, choice of computing elements, etc. Power supply is probably the largest single-factor contributor to end results. The power supply topology was taken directly from the extreme design done in Atlantis DAC.

But in software too. The data path that music tracks follow in the way to the DAC plays a key role. Like keeping the audio data in its native format. And many others. In essence, the idea behind Atlantis Server is to deliver an audio track untouched, bit accurate, and cleanly.

The operating system chosen for Atlantis Server is an extensively modified Windows 10. Custom software elements have been developed for Atlantis Server.
Atlantis Server is a sealed and fan-less design. A detailed thermal study was done to optimize and minimize thermal gradient within the product. A custom aluminum machined cooler was created for the purpose.

The choice of the hardware platform is very special. More than 50 different platform combinations (microprocessor, RAM, motherboard,..) were measured for key parameters and ONE combination delivered better results over the rest, which is the lucky number inside Atlantis Server.

There are other proprietary hardware elements in Atlantis Server that remain undisclosed.
