The Marantz SA-10 SACD/CD player is designed to set a new standard in audio. Whether with music on disc or content streamed from a computer, enjoy your collection in refined clarity.
Marantz combined their HDAM technology with an optimized circuit design layout and carefully selected components, which provides the utmost in exceptional sound quality and performance.
Engineered and extensively tuned by a team drawing on more than 35 years of Marantz CD and SACD design knowledge. Whether playing SACDs, CDs, or other data discs containing music, it's vital that any player retrieves the information as accurately as possible: unlike a computer reading a disc for ripping, there's no time for repeated re-scans when playing music - it happens in real-time, so the disc transport needs to get things right the first time.
However, the SA-10 goes so much further than just disc playback: it's also a fully-functional digital-to-analog converter for music stored on a home computer, as well as having conventional digital inputs for existing source components. Those conventional inputs - optical and coaxial - can handle your music files up to 192kHz/24bit.
More than a DAC! The SA-10 features an all-new disc transport mechanism, so the digital to analog conversion has also been subject to a radical rethink, taking full advantage of the 1-bit conversion technology found in past flagship Marantz players, and incorporating brand-new filtering and up-conversion to take advantage of this simple, but elegant solution.
DSD is at the heart of the way the SA-10 handles digital audio: PCM and DXD inputs are all upconverted to DSD at 11.2MHz using the proprietary MMM-Stream converter within the player, and then the high-frequency signal produced is processed by the unique MMM-Conversion stage, used in place of a conventional DAC, to produce the analog output.
