TA-ZH1ES
Unleash the full potential of your headphones and experience the emotional impact of every song as the artist intended. Combining the best of digital and analog sound technology, this one’s for the serious listeners.
One Signature Sound
Elevating the high-resolution sound experience from one you listen to, to one you can feel.
Our non-feedback S-Master technology maintains the purity of digital sound. Our new D.A. Hybrid Amplifier Circuit takes this one step further, enhancing its precision and sound quality with an analog feed-forward amp. The analog amplifier corrects the conversion error caused by switching amplification.
The analog amplifier compares the true signal with the digital amplifier output signal, identifying the error caused by the slow MOS FET switching speed. Then it produces an error correction signal to restore the headphone output signal, preserving the purity of the original sound, and reproducing the signal with absolute precision.
Capturing every note and nuance with DSEE HXTM
Experience your music as the artist intended, in near High-Resolution Audio quality. Our new DSEE HX™upscaling technology features four additional modes to the standard: female vocal, male vocal, percussion and strings, for optimal sound reproduction.
Personalising sound with the new DSD Remastering Engine
Offering double the conversion accuracy of previous models, the new DSD Remastering Engine let you convert all PCM music sources into DSD 11.2MHz. The technology utilises FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) to convert any signal into the DSD sound format.
Uncompromised music reproduction
To maximise the potential of the new D.A. Hybrid Amplifier Circuit, our engineers developed the amplifier using an advanced FPGA processor. This let them fully customise the technology and develop something truly unique.
Familiar analog-like sound
Our DC Phase Linearizer works to effectively replicate the phase character of a typical analog amplifier. It matches the phase characteristics of the analog amplifier to deliver a more analog-like sound.
The TA-ZH1ES has been precision-crafted from the outside in, to maximise audio quality.
Learn about the technology and inspiration behind our most premium stationary headphone amplifier.
Enjoy up to PCM 32 bit/768kHz and DSD22.4 MHz sound formats.
Φ4.4mm single balanced jack is new standard for headphone balance connection. Its clear channel separation offers accurate reproduction and wide sound space.
The amp features several terminals to support a variety of input devices, including Walkman®, TVs and Playstation® consoles.
The amp utilises a variety of headphone output connections, including both balanced (4.4mm, 3-pole mini plug x2 & XLR4) and unbalanced (stereo standard plug, stereo mini plug).
