Lossless Digital Audio Player. The 2nd generation model packs native DSD decoding, a 40% increase in power output perfect for driving power hungry headphones and flagship components that are generally best in class. The player has been made 15% lighter, 12% smaller and more ergonomical with an improved button layout. The X5 II utilises the Ingenics 4760B dual-core 600MHz CPU. The X5 II player supports all six major lossless music formats - DSD, APE, FLAC, ALAC, WMA and WAV lossless music formatswhich makes it a player with the most complete set of supported formats to date among Hi-Fi DAPs. The X5ii preseves the top-flight PCM1792A DAC decoder from Texas Instruments that was used in the original X5 and couples it with two new OPA1652 OP AMPs, with great dynamic performance and FET inputs for I/V conversion, realising extra-low distortion (0.00005%) and noise. The player then utilises two OPA1612 chips for lowpass filtering and voltage amplification. Finally, to attain a sufficient driving current for wide sound stage, highly dynamic musical performance, and good bass power the headphone output stage employs two BUF634U amplifiers which can supply up to 250 mA (a 67% increase on the original X5). The X5 II serves not only as a DAP, but also as a USB DAC when connected to a computer, thus satisfying your music needs in and out of the house. The DAC also supports playback in 192KHz / 24 Bit for that truely high resolution sound. Color: Limited Edition Gold.
