Despite its attractive simplicity, the Artera Solus Play sports cutting-edge sophistication beneath the skin.
At its heart nestles the ES9018 Sabre32 Reference, the eminent 32-bit, eight-channel hybrid multi-bit Delta-Sigma DAC chip, expertly implemented by QUAD’s renowned engineers.
External sources benefit from this DAC’s exceptional quality via a range of digital inputs.
Handling PCM data up to 32-bit/384kHz as well as DSD64/128/256.
This ensures the Artera Solus Play is equipped to make the most of today’s hi-res music formats, as well as future advances in ultra-high-definition digital sound.
For CD replay, a slot-loading mechanism buffers data from the disc before feeding it to the asynchronous DAC section.
Four digital filter options enable users to tailor the sound from both CDs and external digital sources, to suit personal taste and the nature of the source material.
The free Play-Fi app (available for iOS and Android) is an intuitive gateway to a wealth of music services, inc Spotify, Tidal, Amazon Music, Deezer, Qobuz, and TuneIn.
Spotify users can connect directly from the Spotify app thanks to Spotify Connect.
You can connect directly from smartphones and tablets thanks to aptX Bluetooth.
