The new low-latency XMOS microcontroller is packed with processing power. The new 16-core design delivers double the clock speed and four times the memory over its predecessor with the latest SuperSpeed USB standard. This enables fast processing of your audio data via the input leading to optimised sound quality.
Supporting different file formats enables compatibility with a wide range of device types. PCM 32bit/384kHz is the format favoured for CD, DVD, Bluray devices and more, fully native DSD256 ensures a high-quality format above CD with a higher number meaning a better recording, with fully native meaning the original recording remains unaltered and MQA which enables high-res streaming of the original master from services such as Tidal.
When using certain types of headphones including open-back and earphones. You may notice a lack of bass and wish that you could get that little bit more oomph or perhaps some more space that is true to life. Well, XBass boosts the low frequencies of audio, without muddying the midrange to retrieve the deep bass your strive for. It also features XSpace which opens up your music adding spaciousness akin to the experience of being at a live concert.
