Description
- Dual monaural USB DAC/Network Player supporting DSD512 and PCM32/768. The NT-505 is a flagship dual monaural USB DAC with versatile network playback capabilities. It successfully incorporates the latest network technologies, along with TEAC’s decades of accumulated audio design experience, in an attractive package with an A4-sized footprint.
- Like its predecessor (the NT-503) it employs a dual monaural circuit design to process audio signals with even greater purity, with the latest VERITA AK4497 DAC chip used on each of the two channels. This improves the S/N (signal to noise) ratio by processing each channel individually in monaural mode, as well as delivering DSD512 (22.5MHz) native and 768kHz/32-bit PCM playback capabilities.
- The analogue section, which is one of the keys to sound quality, includes four TEAC-HCLD buffer amp circuits that allow different drive modes, – fully-balanced drive for balanced output, and parallel drive mode for unbalanced output – to achieve enhanced acoustic expression. On the network audio side, the NT-505 supports high-quality music subscription services, namely TIDAL and Qobuz, and is Roon Ready.
- Hi-Res audio playback supporting DSD512 (22.6MHz) and PCM. 768kHz/32-bit PCM Dual monaural circuit design with a high-end AKM VERITA AK4497 DAC on each channel. Supports MQA decoding and TIDAL and Qobuz music subscription services, and is Roon Ready. DSD128 (5.6MHz) and PCM 192kHz/24-bit Network streaming from NAS/PC. 5 types of PCM digital filters and 2 types of DSD digital filters. Up-conversion up to 24.5MHz DSD and 384kHz/32-bit PCM.
- 1/4” (6.3mm) stereo TRS jack supporting ground-separate drive. “Bulk Pet” USB transferring technology with four transfer modes for various sound characters*1. USB audio port for Hi-Res audio input from Windows/Mac. Coaxial and optical digital inputs on both front and back. Front USB port supporting Hi-Res playback from USB flash drive. Analogue outputs with balanced XLR and conventional unbalanced RCA outputs. High-contrast full-graphic organic EL display with dimmer.
