Hi-Res Audio for uncompromising sound
Experience digital music to the fullest with Hi-Res Audio. By capturing music at a higher rate than CD and increasing both audio samples per second and the bitrate accuracy of each sample, Hi-Res Audio offers an uncompromised rendition of an artist's music. Savor every breath and subtle movement for a truly emotional experience.
11.2 MHz Direct Stream Digital (DSD) playback for Hi-Res Audio
Enjoy studio-quality sound thanks to the Direct Stream Digital (DSD) audio codec—designed specifically for Hi-Res Audio. This 1-bit format operates at a far higher frequency than conventional PCM digital audio, resulting in a more natural, and intensely detailed sound. The result is clearer, crisper, Hi-Res Audio quality.¹
S-Master HX™ digital amplifier: utmost sonic purity
Using a simplified and fully digital signal path, S-Master HX™ reproduces the subtleties and wide frequency range of high resolution formats. Unlike conventional amplifiers, it maintains the digital signal until right before the speaker output, eliminating distortion.
DSEE HX™ restores all your compressed music files
Go beyond CD quality. DSEE HX™ builds on our proprietary DSEE™ technology, upscaling compressed audio files to a level that's closer to Hi-Res Audio. By restoring the subtleties of the original recording that are lost during the compression process, DSEE HX™ delivers a rich, studio-quality audio experience for all your music.
Aluminum-milled frame resists noise
A rigid aluminum-milled frame provides strong resistance to electrical noise for clear, stable sound.
