Performance and Features
-
Power Output: Provides 45W per channel (8ohm) / 65W per channel (4ohm) using Class AB amplification, with a low <0.005% Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) at 30W into 8ohm. Its 20Hz-20kHz (±0.5dB) frequency response ensures faithful sound reproduction across all frequencies.
-
Digital Audio: Features an ESS Sabre32 Reference ES9018K2M DAC, supporting 44.1kHz-384kHz PCM and DSD64, DSD128, DSD256 via USB, and up to 192kHz through optical and coaxial inputs. This advanced digital circuitry delivers clarity and depth comparable to standalone DACs.
-
Phono Pre-Amplifier: Includes a built-in Moving Magnet (MM) phono stage with 4.1mV input sensitivity and 47Kohm // 100pF impedance, enabling direct turntable connection for high-quality vinyl playback with minimal noise.
-
Bluetooth Capability: Supports aptX and AAC codecs for CD-quality wireless streaming from Bluetooth-enabled devices like smartphones and portable players, alongside standard SBC for broader compatibility.
-
Connectivity: Offers a comprehensive set of inputs—two RCA analog (AUX1, AUX2), USB-B, dual optical TOSlink, and coaxial—plus digital outputs and a pre-out RCA with a 4V output level, <0.003% THD**, and **>110dB signal-to-noise ratio.
Build and Design
The Stereo 130 is compact yet robust, measuring 11.88" x 4.64" x 10.62" and weighing 15.27 lbs.
