SilverStone Technology in collaboration with ASUSTek Computer are proud to announce that SilverStone’s recently released Grandia GD04 and ASUS’s Xonar HDAV1.3 Deluxe are the best combo for building a powerful and great sounding home theater PC.

The Grandia series GD04 is an incredible new chassis from SilverStone Technology that combines years of experience in HTPC (home theater personal computer) and SFF (small form factor) chassis design.  With an overall size of 21.5 liters, it is small enough to fit inside any home theater cabinets without sacrificing cooling performance and component capacity.  Cooled by three included 120mm fans and a positive pressure design, the GD04 has cooling power to match much bigger tower chassis but at much lower noise level.  Its smartly designed interior layout is capable of accommodating a standard ATX power supply, a Micro-ATX motherboard and up to three hard drives.  One of its most unique features is the extra expansion slot located away from the motherboard designed specifically for ASUS’s Xonar HDAV1.3 Deluxe audio card and its included extension board.

Harnessing the power of ASUS’s own proprietary AV200 High-Definition audio processor (Max. 192KHz/24bit) and outputting via high quality oversampling digital to analog converters (Burr-Brown PCM1796, 123dB SNR), National Semiconductor LM4562 OP AMP, and analog-to-digital converter (Cirrus Logic CS5381, 120dB SNR), the Xonar HDAV1.3 Deluxe redefines Hi-Fi PC audio in performance and aural quality.  It is the first audio card in the world to provide lossless format support via Dolby® TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio™ for true 96K or 192K output.  With certified HDMI 1.3a, the Xonar HDAV1.3 Deluxe can also enhance the high definition video source from our PC for the perfect home theater experience.  Installation of this audio card combo in the SilverStone Grandia GD04 chassis ensures that all output jacks required for experiencing the full 7.1 surround sound channels can be utilized in the most efficient way possible.
