Hi-Resolution Audio
Hi-Resolution audio generally refers to a format that is capable of exceeding the sampling/Bit rates of CD (44.1kHz/16Bit). An Example of this is WAV files which are capable of 96kHz/24Bit. This offers a level of performance far exceeding that capable of CD.
Products that will be availble for demonstration will Be:
Sony HAP-S1
This is a high resolution audio player. It is not a streamer - each time music is downloaded to the HAP-S1 it is backed up onto its own hard drive. Therefore music play back is instantaneous as there is no need to wait for the network to stream the tracks. This also makes the unit stand alone as once the files are transfered to the HAP-S1 there is no need to have the PC, etc, on.
The HAP-S1 includes a high quality 40W amplifier, built in D/A convertor and a 500GB HDD. (This is expandable via the USB port on the rear of the product).
Sony HAP-Z1ES
The HAP-Z1ES is similar to the HAP-S1. However as this is an ES product that establishes itself as the highest quality audio player made by Sony. The HAP-S1ES has all of the benefits of the HAP-S1 with the following differences:
There is no amplifier in the HAPZ1ES. Due to the quality obtained a seperate high qualty amplifier is recommended.
The HAPz1ES includes a unique DSD remastering engine. This enables standard music files such as MP3, AAC & WAV to be converted to DSD files.
A very high quality DAC is integated within the unit. This uses FIR filters taht are ideal for the conversion of DSD files.
The unit has a 1Tb HDD that is expandable via the rear USB port.
Exceptional built quality renown in the Sony ES range.

UDA-1S
The UDA-1S is a high quality DAC designed to except digital inputs from a variaety of sources including CD Players, Computers, Smart phones, etc. It is capable of decoding signals up to 192kHz 32 Bit.
It has a built in 23W analogue amplifier so it can be connected directly to a high quality pair of loudspeakers.
