CD Standard Sampling Rate
CD standard provides excellent sound quality with a sample rate 16Bit/44.1kHz and a frequency range typically 20Hz~20kHz.
Hi-Res Sample Rate (192kHz/24Bit)
Hi-Res Audio has remarkable high definition with sample rates up to 24Bit/192kHz and an extended frequency range 20Hz~40kHz.
Hi-Res Audio sound quality exceeding CD, a realistic and high-definition sound experience faithful to the original studio recording
The Hi-Res Audio certification is the industry benchmark for which has been standardised through JAS (Japan Audio Society). In summary, it is the collaboration of digital processes and formats that allow the encoding and playback of high-definition music files which require higher sampling rates and wider frequency dynamic range compared to what is found on typical CDs.
Hi-Res Audio encompasses the playback of high-resolution music such as FLAC, WAV or APE files that contain high sampling rates of 24Bit/192kHz (above the CD standard 16Bit/44.1kHz). These audio files can be reproduced with high fidelity sound via the UTX-A09 and companioned with Hi-Res Audio certified speakers and amplifiers.
Listening to Hi-Res Audio allows you to feel every emotion and immerse in the realistic nuances and fine details of your favourite artist’s original studio performance which is reproduced in high-definition sound. Furthermore, Hi-Res Audio has absolutely no distortion and incredible dynamics for an authentic and exhilarating audiophile listening experience.
