Premium Audio Build

Among the best-performing digital-to-analog converters available, the SABRE ES9018C2M is deployed in twin configuration with twin SABRE ESS9601K amplifiers. Served by dedicated capacitors, each channel is symmetrical to equalize signal paths. The design leads to transparent reproduction and yields extraordinary levels of detail on a spacious soundstage. Be drawn into the music sense each instrument around you in three dimensional space.

Standard and Balanced Output Jacks

3.5 mm headphone jack for standard headphone use as well as a 2.5 mm headphone jack, to support balanced headphones. The XDP-30R has 2 different balanced modes Balanced (BTL) for improved stereo separation and increased power for more demanding headphones and Active Control Ground (ACG) for improved channel separation and a clean, detailed, noise free audio performance.

Two Clocks for Greater Precision

Clocking mechanisms synchronize the timing of data flowing between devices. The better the clock, the better the sound. The XDP-30R has two clocks one detects 44.1 kHz signals, scaling to 88.2 kHz/176.4 kHz, and the second handles 48 kHz signals and upsamples to a maximum 192 kHz. Detection is automatic. The result is pure, jitter-free sound.
