Accommodating independent left\/right high-capacity toroidal core power transformers, discrete buffer amplifiers and two Ncore modules to provide a complete dual mono structure from input to output, while the input stage of each channel employs a fully-balanced design, so the dynamism of input signals is amplified as is, maximizing the innate performance of the speakers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cabinet is primarily comprised of 3mm-thick heavy metal platel but has a flexible structure to control vibration. By incorporating joints with suspension functions, the vibration frequency of the entire device is controlled to reproduce open and vibrant sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The UD-701N is a new flagship USB DAC\/Network Player that combines a network player, an analog preamp, a headphone amplifier and various other functions on the advanced USB DAC function, accommodating a newly designed TEAC \u0394\u03a3<small>(Delta Sigma)<\/small>&nbsp;discrete DACs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a USB DAC and network player, 22.5MHz DSD and 384kHz\/32-bit PCM are supported. Employing the newly-developed TEAC \u0394\u03a3discrete DAC, all digital signals are converted to analog signals with high audio quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only can this be used for all kinds of digital playback, from systems centered on a PC or Mac to audio server systems using NAS and streaming playback, it can also fulfill a core role in systems as a preamp with analog and digital inputs. Along with allowing listening through speakers in combination with a power amplifier, it also supports balanced headphone output using a 4-pin XLR jack. The UD-701N is an all-around unit that flexibly supports new listening styles in a new age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"hx wp-block-heading\">AP-701 Stereo Power Amplifier<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<ul><li>Two Ncore power modules made by Hypex Electronics B.V.
