I am impressed with all of the specification and features. Just built our Magnetar UDP800 webpage and here's the pdf spec. sheet.

We're included in Magnetar's very 1st US allocation/shipment, which is scheduled for the week of Jan. 2 and I'll post on our opinions after spending some time with the UDP-800. I'll also be loaning the UDP-800 to a few of my YouTube channel owner contacts for their reviews.

Here's some basic information on this new premium Universal Disc Player/Network Streaming Device:

General specification: Power supply: AC 100-240V ~, 50/60Hz Power: 30 W (Standby: 0.5W in energy saving mode)



High-Power transformer: MAGNETAR engineers specially selected a custom 60W high-power low noise transformer for the UDP800, with a two-stage filter design along with Japanese Rubycon electrolytic capacitors to meet the high transient response required by surround sound systems and high-resolution audio.

A separate metal case lowers noise level, providing stability and silence, further improving audio and video quality.

Premium Digital Analog Converter: For Pure Audio playback, UDP800 specifically adopts a 4-layer PCB circuit board where each channel is designed with independent wiring. Two independent Burr-Brown PCM 1795 DAC processors are used for two-channel D/A decoding, processing left channel and right channel respectively. And high-quality MUSES8920 OP-AMP for audiophile sound quality.

UDP800 comes with stereo XLR gold-plated balanced terminals and stereo RCA gold-plated unbalanced outputs.

Pure audio mode function is available to bring uncompromised sound quality to audio lovers.
