Leveraging over 60 years of design experience, the S14 delivers high performance music rendered through a 32-bit ESS Sabre digital-to-analog converter, feeding high current output transistors powered by an oversized toroidal transformer, delivering precision and control.
With the S14, users can stream music directly from popular streaming services including Spotify, Tidal, Qobuz, and podcasts as well as thousands of Internet Radio stations. Fully certified Roon Ready, AirPlay 2 and Google Cast are also supported as well as coaxial, optical, aptXTM HD Bluetooth, analogue RCA and PC-USB source inputs for legacy devices.
The all-in-one product streams music directly from popular music services, rendering the audio with precision, delivering 150 Watts of Class AB power at 4 Ohms directly to loudspeakers via 5-way binding posts and a front panel headphone connection. The S14 also comes with a newly engineered aluminium remote control for easy use in a design-forward package.
