∫ Features of this unit
This unit offers the following features:
Digital Noise Isolation Architecture
Since most digital content storage media are intended for use w ith 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 interface s, delivering clear sound.
Virtual Battery Operation
Virtual Battery Operation prevents power supply noise, a factor  that causes “turbidity” in sound, from mixing into the audio signal. 
The result is an improvement in sound localization performance and spatial expression.
Ultra Low Distortion Oversampling Digital Filter
High-precision oversampling eliminates distortion and enhances the sound quality of music sources, thus reproducing sound rich 
with spatial expression.
∫ Recommended devices
We recommend using Technics devices (optional) for superior aud io quality.
