Exceptional Design. Effortless Elegance.
Aerospace-grade aluminum chassis, solid yet refined. Clean and understated, with a premium tactile feel. The metal chassis provides natural shielding, reducing external interference for a quieter background and greater clarity. More than a chassis, it becomes part of the listening experience, unifying form and sound.
Flagship DAC Architecture
Each component plays a dedicated role. AK4191EQ handles digital processing, while AK4499EXEQ focuses on D/A conversion. Ensuring precise processing at every stage of the signal path. From lossless formats such as FLAC, WAV, and APE to DSD512 playback. More musical details are preserved, with a quieter background and greater separation.Combined with AKM’s Velvet Sound™ technology, Vocals, instruments, and spatial imaging become more natural and engaging.
Less Interference, More Detail
A dual-power architecture separates power supply for digital and analog sections. Power paths are isolated at the source to reduce cross-circuit interference. When power is compromised, detail is lost and dynamics are constrained. A cleaner power foundation ensures stable operation of the DAC and analog circuits. The linear power supply achieves an ultra-low 20μV noise floor, preserving subtle signal variations. Removed constraints allow the sound to fully unfold.
Timing, Perfected
Equipped with a low phase noise OCXO (Oven-Controlled Crystal Oscillator), keeping the audio clocks at a stable operating temperature, minimizing frequency drift caused by environmental changes, with jitter controlled below 50 fs, providing a precise and stable clock for accurate playback. Greater clarity and spatial definition. Natural reproduction of musical detail.
Stable, Clear, Long-Lasting Listening
Combined with advanced PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) technology, stabilizing and synchronizing the clock signal, reducing detail loss caused by jitter. Detail reproduction becomes more stable, with more natural and complete preservation of sound edges and micro-details. Maintaining a comfortable listening experience even during long sessions and dynamic changes in music.
Precise Reading, Controlled Precision
Custom CD playback system, optimized for audio applications with quieter and more stable operation. High-precision error correction reduces read errors and interference. Ensuring more complete and accurate playback and ripping.
Beyond the Specs. Better Sound.
In quiet passages, the background remains exceptionally clean. In dynamic peaks, full dynamic range is preserved.
Vocals are more focused, instruments more clearly layered. In complex arrangements, every detail remains distinctly rendered.
IIS Output, Multi-Mode Support
8 configurable IIS output modes for seamless DAC compatibility. Fewer compatibility issues, less repeated setup. More time for music. Once connected, great sound follows naturally.
Deep Bass Extension
Dedicated SUB output connects easily to a subwoofer for fuller low-frequency performance. Stronger impact. Richer atmosphere. Bringing with a more immersive experience.
The Core of Home Audio
Built-in HDMI ARC/eARC for lossless audio return from TVs and projectors. Transform TV audio into a true Hi-Fi home theater experience.
SFP Pure Transmission
Dedicated SFP optical network port enabling pure optical signal transmission. Providing a “zero-interference” streaming access solution for users with extreme demands on network purity. Cleaner data delivery, resulting in more natural sound reproduction.
Seamless Streaming Experience
Native integration of leading global streaming services, including Apple Music, Spotify, TIDAL, Qobuz, Amazon Music, Deezer, etc. Preserving each platform’s native features, content ecosystem, and user experience. Delivering a seamless and intuitive listening experience. Subscriptions remain active, with no need for additional migration of content or services. From content discovery to playback, the experience is unified. With deep system integration, music becomes truly boundaryless.
Advanced Streaming Hub
Supports a wide range of leading streaming protocols, including Spotify Connect Lossless, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, DLNA/UPnP, and Network Audio Adapter. Enables direct connection across devices and platforms. No additional setup required—bridging ecosystems seamlessly. Open, unrestricted connectivity.
Vast Music Library, Unified
Supports mainstream file-sharing protocols including SMB, NFS, and WebDAV. Connect effortlessly to NAS, private cloud, and network storage devices. Whether your music is stored locally, in the cloud, or on a home server, your entire library is easy to access and manage. No more switching between devices or folders—everything stays organized in one place.
Seeing Sound in Motion
When sound becomes visible, perception changes. VU meters and dynamic spectrum visualizations adapt to different listening moods. Needle movement and spectrum dynamics reflect music in real time. Rhythm, dynamics, and layering become visual feedback. Sound flows as visuals respond, shaping the emotional experience.
Music Visualized
A redesigned UI delivers richer information and a more immersive experience. Layout, motion, and hierarchy have been fully restructured for clarity and intuitiveness. Alongside classic VU meters and spectrum views, new dynamic visual effects are introduced. Light, motion, and spectrum visuals move in sync with the music. Turning musical emotion into a visual experience.
Bit-Perfect Signal Path
The proprietary EOS Audio Engine bypasses Android SRC limitations, creating a direct Bit-Perfect path. Digital audio signals remain free from secondary processing, preserving the original sound.
CD Playback, Reimagined
The upgraded CD playback and ripping system automatically retrieves album artwork, track information, and metadata. Intelligent error correction and compensation help ensure accurate ripping, while duplicate detection prevents repeated imports.
Up to 16× Audio Upsampling
Supports up to 16× audio upsampling. Unlocks greater detail from high-resolution recordings, with enhanced refinement and layering.
evotune™ PRO Room Correction
Every room shapes the way sound is heard. Reflections, standing waves, and room geometry all influence tonal balance and soundstage performance. The upgraded evotune™ Room Correction System goes beyond frequency-response adjustment. It analyzes how sound behaves throughout the listening environment. DRC-based modeling and FIR filtering process frequency, timing, and spatial information together for more stable correction and clearer imaging.
Mainstream Master-Quality Format Support
Supports a wide range of high-fidelity audio formats, including DSD, MQA, FLAC, APE, and WAV, meeting the demands of high-resolution playback. From classical to electronic music, experience every recording with master-quality fidelity.
20-Band Professional Equalizer
The 20-band PEQ module allows precise adjustment of frequency, gain, and Q values. Additional advanced tools include FIR filter import, loudness control, and dynamic range compression. Fine-grained adjustment enables the system to adapt to both room acoustics and personal preferences.
Great Sound at Any Volume
Powered by the proprietary EVC Volume Engine, signal integrity is maintained across the entire volume range. Whether listening quietly or turning it up, the sound remains natural, balanced, and true to the original.
