Yamaha A-S801

USB DAC function supports 2.8MHz/5.6MHz DSD native resolution and PCM 384kHz/32-bit*

reproductionA built-in USB DAC function allows direct connection to a PC

and reproduction of today's popular high resolution sound sources.

The Yamaha-developed USB device controller IC has its own master clock

that eliminates PC jitter for high resolution signal transmission.

The ASIO2.3 Yamaha Steinberg USB driver achieves lower delay and higher throughput.

Offering compatibility with 5.6MHz DSD native reproduction and PCM 384kHz/32-bit PCM

reproduction, you can enjoy a wide range of high resolution sound sources for high quality sound.

In addition, an indicator on the front panel displays easily understandable

DSD and PCM playback formats and sampling frequencies.

* Windows support. Mac support is 24-bit.

The D/A converter for the A-S801 is the ES9010K2M from ESS Technology, Inc.

We selected this after careful examination of all points—

not only its high precision processing of 32-bit audio, but also the

ability to handle large amounts of audio data with full PCM 384kHz,DSD 5.6MHz

native reproduction, strength in the low register,

and high quality definition in the high register.

Since the built-in D/A converter generates its own master clock,

an original Jitter Elimination function is also included,

permitting D/A conversion with extremely low impact of clock jitter.

Moreover, a 2-channel D/A converter is housed inside the chip,

and applies double differential operation.

The result is exceptionally high performance and high quality signal

output with superior signal-to-noise ratio.
