Digital audio player
Sony Video & Sound Products Inc.
This new digital music player – featuring a built-in analog amplifier – delivers pristine audio with nuanced sensitivity. The design combines the amplifier and player, balancing the expressiveness of an analog amplifier with the punch of digital technology and reducing the signal deterioration and noise that cable connections can cause. The DC power source, too, minimizes noise while providing a stable current. It all fits into a durable aluminum H frame with an efficient substrate layout that minimizes vibrations and distortion. The device offers users an experience where every element of high-quality sound comes together in a single package.
