To ensure the most accurate, dynamic sound with enhanced clarity and realism – at even the highest listening levels – a digital power supply provides the amplifiers with all the muscle required – without the weight and bulk of traditional power-supply designs and heavy transformers. The net result is a great-sounding system that’s also environmentally-friendly.

A front-facing USB port invites you to connect devices directly without the need of an external adapter or a wireless connection.
