Features

High-Quality Audio Technologies Employed including JENO Engine and GaN-FET Driver

The JENO Engine transmits and processes audio signals in full digital and with minimal jitter from the input stage to the power stage. The GaNFET Driver performs high-speed switching with minimal loss. The LAPC conducts speaker load adaptive phase calibration to achieve ideal gain and phase characteristics for any type of speaker. Also, the low-distortion switching power supply specifically designed for the SU-G30 which stabilizes the output voltage realizes accurate signal amplification Technics regards as ideal.

High-Quality Processing of All Types

Ideal Sound Quality and Performance Realized by the Integrated Simple Configuration.

The SU-G30 features a built-in network audio circuit with thorough measures taken against jitter and noise. It transmits digital audio data through the shortest possible signal path from the music sources all the way to the power stage to pursue uncompromised sound quality with extremely low signal degradation.

of Signal Sources Ranging from High-Res Audio Sources to Analog Audio Sources

Supporting a diversity of input sources, such as digital audio (DLNA, USB and Bluetooth®), iOS devices and analogue audio (Line and Phono), the SU-G30 digitally processes all types of signal sources with the high-quality sound technology developed by Technics.
