High-Resolution Audio Specialist Decodes 2.6MHz, 5.2MHz,
11.2MHz DSD and Most Lossless Formats: Compact Marantz HD-AMP1 Integrated
Amplifier Touts 32-Bit DAC, USB Inputs, HDAM Circuitry
Able to fit into the smallest spaces and compatible with all
three DSD sampling frequencies (2.6MHz, 5.2MHz, and 11.2MHz), the ultra-compact
Marantz HD-AMP1 digital integrated amplifier is a high-resolution audiophile
powerhouse. Perfect for desktop systems and computer-audio setups, HD-AMP1
supports nearly every digital format around – including uncompressed files such
as WAV, ALAC, FLAC, AIFF, and DSD. A reference-level 32-bit/384kHz ESS SABRE
DAC, proprietary HDAM-SA2 circuitry, and advanced amplifier technology (35Wpc
into 8 ohms, 70Wpc into 4 ohms) ensure high-end sound. Music played through
HD-AMP1 sounds tremendously lifelike, dynamic, and engaging. Need to connect am
array of sources? Done. HD-AMP1's front-panel USB input accommodates iDevices
and USB drives, while an asynchronous rear-panel USB-B port with noise
isolation lets you stream high-resolution tracks directly from your computer. A
dedicated headphone amplifier, optical and coaxial digital inputs, two analog
inputs, proprietary DSP filters, and a robust chassis complete with wood-toned
side panels round out a premium-grade component that takes up little more than
one square foot of space. Sound too good to be true? Just wait until you hear
HD-AMP1 and experience its versatility for yourself. Marantz's three-year
warranty and Music Direct's Money-Back Guarantee have your back.
Decodes Up to 11.2MHz and Suits Practically All
High-Resolution Audio Needs
Equipped with the reference-class ESS SABRE DAC paired with
HDAM-SA2 technology, HD-AMP 1 delivers the ultimate high-resolution listening
experience with cutting-edge high-res audio formats. It is one of the very few
digital audiophile components that can decode all three DSD sampling
frequencies: 2.6, 5.2, and 11.2MHz. DSD (2.6/5.2/11.2MHz). Via the front panel
USB port, HD-AMP1 supports up to 24-bit/192kHz high resolution files, while the
rear panel USB-B port supports up to 32-bit/384kHz ultra-high resolution
tracks. In addition, HD-AMP1 can decode WAV, ALAC, FLAC, AIFF, MP3, WMA, and
AAC. For optimum D/A conversion with virtually any sampling frequency, HD-AMP1
is equipped with dual master quartz clocks. In addition, Marantz Musical
Digital Filtering technology utilizes proprietary digital filter algorithms
that extract the utmost fidelity from high-resolution audio tracks. Two
different digital filtering options let you tailor the sound quality to your
exacting preference.
Proprietary HDAM-SA2 Circuits Combine With Advanced Class D
Digital Power Amp
Instead of using conventional IC chip op-amps, HDAM
technology features precision discrete component circuit blocks that deliver
wide frequency response, ultra-fast slew rate, and low distortion. HD-AMP1
boasts HDAM-SA2 in three circuit blocks, including the analog front end, the
D/A converter section, and dedicated headphone amp block. HD-AMP1's
cool-running advanced Class D digital power amplifier stage delivers wide
frequency response (to 50kHz), wide dynamic range, and extremely low
distortion. Rated at 35 watts per channel into 8 ohms, HD-AMP1 is fully capable
of driving lower-impedance speakers and rated at 70 watts per channel into 4
ohms.
Dedicated Headphone Circuit with Adjustable Gain and
HDAM-SA2, Dual Analog Inputs
Designed to deliver the ultimate listening experience with
the widest range of headphone types and impedances, HD-AMP1 touts a dedicated
headphone amplifier block with HDAM-SA2 technology. Three available gain
settings provide optimum matching with the widest range of headphone
impedances. And for compatibility with analog audio sources such as a tuner,
tape deck, or any other source not equipped with digital outputs, HD-AMP1 even
includes two analog inputs.
Two USB Ports for Extra Convenience and Flexibility, Onboard
Auto-Charge
A convenient USB port for direct connection to your favorite
iDevice, USB thumb drive, or NAS is located on the front panel. It even charges
your device when put into standby mode. The rear panel USB-B port is reserved
for direct connection to your PC or Mac for high-res streaming. It also
features advanced noise isolation to prevent digital noise from degrading the
audio fidelity.
Elegant Chassis Features Premium Construction, Wood-Toned
Side Panels
The compact, elegant chassis features a premium brushed
alloy front panel with matching knobs along with with a signature Porthole
round front panel two-line display which features three dimming levels and off.
The stylish wood-toned side panels add a luxurious touch and the robust chassis
features a rugged dual bottom plate construction for maximum rigidity coupled
to aluminum alloy chassis feet for maximum vibration resistance.
