Whether utilising the integrated DAC or an external audio converter, ST-Amp is capable of presenting impeccably accurate, neutral sound with excellent transparency. Boasting a dynamic range above 126 dB, super-low harmonic distortion of 0.0025% at 2V ensures that power is boosted while peak currents are lowered for clean optimised efficiency.
ST-Amp features a noiseless linear power supply for perfect stability, providing power for even the most demanding or esoteric headphones of varied impedances. Designed with headphones in mind, headphones are preemptively shielded from pops and clicks when the unit is powered on and off.
Across both balanced and SE signals, ST-Amp imposes an intelligently balanced topology to reduce phase shift, additional harmonic distortion. This ensures listening consistency and avoids any lag between the two output channels.
