16-channel flagship Delta Sigma DAC
The SU-10 DAC is SMSL’s 2022 flagship Delta Sigma DAC. Utilizing two ES9038PRO DAC chips, the SU-10 boasts 16 channels and 21 op amps for an exceedingly detailed sonic experience. SMSL has designed a third generation DAC circuit for the occasion, offering an incredibly low THD+N of 0.00005%.
Dual linear power supplies
The digital and analog components are supplied by separate linear power supplies. This, accompanied with shielded, low-noise power supply processing, results in noise as low as 1uVrms.
24-bit Bluetooth
Equipped with Qualcomm’s latest Bluetooth chip, the SU-10 supports 24-bit/96kHz Bluetooth formats.
3rd Gen USB controller
A third-generation XU-316 USB controller supports 32-bit/768kHz PCM, native DSD512, and DoP.
Tempered glass display
A tempered glass display panel provides high light transmission and extremely long service life.
MQA & MQA-CD
Both USB and SPDIF inputs support MQA and MQA-CD formats, giving you more options to enjoy your library at the highest quality.
Six inputs
With inputs for USB, optical, coaxial, Bluetooth, I2S, and AES, the SU-10 supports an incredible number of sources: laptops, smart phones, TVs, gaming consoles, PCs, CD players, and more.
