Marantz SA-11S3 Specifications

SA-11S3
Super Audio CD Player
Reference Series - Super Audio CD/CD Player
With a bullet proof drive mechanism and HDAM
the SA-11S3 takes the idea of what constitutes a superior quality Super Audio CD/CD player fully into today's digital media
age with the inclusion of a first rate USB DAC stage that features asynchronous input and 24bit/192kHz decoding. In all,
four digital inputs are supported: USB-A, USB-B and S/PDIF (optical, coaxial). A custom Marantz-designed digital filter
features 8x oversampling and user-adjustable settings. An all new black anodized aluminum billet chassis is copper lined;
a luxurious measure against radiated noise, copper-lining adds considerable mass to the product for enhanced resonance
damping as well. A massive, regulated power supply features a custom wound OFC (Oxygen Free Copper) toroidal
transformer and provides ample power on demand for musical peaks while extra filtering insures no audible signature.
Designed expressly for serious audiophiles, the SA-11S3 stands ready to deliver maximum listening pleasure from every
type of digital media.
