  • Key Specs
    • Number of Channels: 2 (The number of discrete channels of sound output. This can be a single number or multiple numbers separated by decimal(s). The first number is the primary, horizontally directed audio channels. The number after the first decimal, if applicable, is the number of subwoofer outputs or channels. The number after the second decimal, if applicable, is the number of height or atmospheric channels designed to immerse the listener by producing overhead sound effects.)
    • Surround Sound Supported: Not Applicable (Surround sound systems use multiple audio channels and speakers to create an immersive sound experience for the listener. There are also various proprietary technologies that imitate this kind of sound via a device's built-in speakers or soundbar.)
    • Audio Only Inputs: 1 x Phono, 2 x Optical digital audio, 2 x Coaxial digital audio, Balanced XLR, Unbalanced RCA, 1 x USB-B, 1 x 3.5mm audio
    • Audio/Video Inputs: No audio/video inputs (The number and type of HDMI inputs the product has.)

The number after the second decimal, if applicable, is the number of height or atmospheric channels designed to immerse the listener by producing overhead sound effects.)
    • High Resolution Audio: true (Hear music the way musicians and sound technicians intended it to be heard. Products that support hi-res audio deliver audio signals with a dynamic range and bandwidth far greater than that of a standard CD so you'll be able to enjoy pure music with outstanding sound quality. The device supports high-resolution audio signals, which more closely resemble the quality of music as it was originally recorded, with more texture and detail than can be heard via typical music streaming services or CDs.)
    • Surround Sound Supported: Not Applicable (Surround sound systems use multiple audio channels and speakers to create an immersive sound experience for the listener. There are also various proprietary technologies that imitate this kind of sound via a device's built-in speakers or soundbar.)
    • Maximum Sampling Rate Supported: 384 (Generally, the higher the sampling rate, the greater the quality of audio and/or video.)
    • Equalizer: true (Allows for the control of different frequencies within an audio signal, such as adjusting treble and bass levels.)
    • High/Low Pass Filters: None
    • Preamp/Processor Design: Solid state (Tube design processors use vacuum tubes to process sound, a method typically more expensive than the transistors used in solid-state processors. Depending on the desired sound, one may prefer the warm tonal quality and character that tubes provide or the crisp, clean sound of solid-state circuitry.)
