Advanced AL32 Plus Processing
Advanced AL32 Processing Plus supports digital audio sources up to high resolution of 384-kHz/32-bit. The algorithms restore information that was lost during the digital recording to ensure detailed playback.
MM/MC phono equalizer
The PMA-1700NE includes a phono equalizer that supports input from both MM and MC cartridges. The simple, straightforward design significantly improves sound quality.
USB-DAC
PMA-1700NE provides USB-DAC function that supports high resolution audio signals up to 11.2-MHz DSD and 384-kHz/32-bit PCM. These digital signals with suppressed jitter will get passed on to the high quality DAC for an optimal D/A conversion with highest precision.
MM and MC phono preamplifier
The PMA-1700NE includes a phono equalizer that supports input from both MM and MC cartridges. The simple, straightforward design significantly improves sound quality.
High-precision electrical controls
The PMA-1700NE embraces electrical volume, balance, and tone controls while preserving the analogue feeling of operation. The unique mechanism offers smooth, linear control. A Source Direct function passes by all tone control for purest audio.
