∫ Features of this unit
This unit offers the following features:
Technics Digital Link
Technics has minimized the length of the signal path by enclosing the network audio player and input selector, which handle very
weak signals, into the same chassis, and reduced noise entering weak signals as much as possible by using a separate chassis
for the power amplifier, which handles high frequencies and large currents. In addition, Technics’s newly developed signal
transmission interface minimizes the degradation of time accuracy and amplitude accuracy that occurs when signals are
transmitted between the network control player and the power amplifier, achieving an ideal amplifier configuration.
Digital Noise Isolation Architecture
Since most digital content storage media are intended for use with PCs, they are not designed with consideration for low noise,
which is critical to pure audio reproduction. To overcome this challenge, this unit employs a thorough measure against jitter and
outstanding noise blocking technology for each of its interfaces, delivering clear sound.
Separated Analog/Digital Power Supply
A dedicated low-noise R-core transformer with excellent regulation characteristics is provided individually for analog and for
digital circuit, achieving high quality sound reproduction.
∫ Recommended devices
We recommend using Technics devices (optional) for superior audio quality.
