02 With noise as low as 0.63uV, only 1/4 of that of the PGA2311UA, it suits both earphones and large headphones.
03 An ultra-low distortion of 0.00024%, with program control analog switching, ensures lossless sound quality.
04 It offers fine adjustments in 0.25dB steps, with a wide range from 0 to -111.75dB, for precise control.
05 At low volumes, the sound quality remains intact, with no left-right imbalance. The electronic control ensures long-lasting durability.

Noise Comparison

01 It's not that the amplifier "creates" new sound details out of nothing.
02 But rather, it optimizes design so that existing details can be fully revealed.
03 It's like wiping dust off a painting to recover the vivid details and colors.
04 The signal might lose details at each stage of its path.
05 From circuit design, objective parameter guarantee, power supply, to component selection.
06 Down to the smallest resistor, PCB material, internal signal wires, operational amplifiers, and soldering.
07 They all have to ensure that no musical note is lost.

05 With an infrared remote control for more convenient operation.

01 Equipped with RCA and XLR inputs for desktop use.
02 Along with 3.5mm single-ended and 4.4mm balanced inputs.
03 Easy connection with portable players.

Note: Input and cannot be connected to signal sources at the same time, the same applies to and .

01 Dedicated aviation connector for the separate power supply, with three sets of analog and digital isolated voltage inputs.
02 The DC port supports 12V universal linear or switching power supply input.
03 The internal battery provides 8-16 hours of clean power for a pure listening experience.
04 All these three power supply options allow for exploring more sound possibilities and greater versatility.

01 When mains power is interfered and affects sound quality, switch to the built-in battery for a pure power supply.
          No more staying up late just to enjoy clean sound enjoy every moment of music anytime.
02 When testing out different peripherals, battery power acts as a "touchstone."
03 A portable desktop amp enables high-quality music enjoyment at any time, from anywhere.
04 No more overpowering sound from desktop amps delicate and refined sound for small earphones.
05 A battery-powered preamp makes audiophiles' dreams come true.

01 Low internal resistance power battery with 40A current output capability.
02 Multi-MOSFET parallel protection circuit with internal resistance as low as 5 milliohms.
03 Using Linear 's industry-leading boost converter in combination with Panasonic power inductors.
04 The battery-powered unit can provide 15V analog power similar to a separate power supply.
05 The full-link low internal resistance design ensures high current output even at high voltages.
