SMSL SU-9n DAC
All of the Audio Quality, None of the Fluff
The SMSL SU-9n is a streamlined take on SMSL’s popular classic SU-9 DAC. The “n” version takes the core of what’s great about the bigger brother—clean audio, reliable performance—and removes some bells and whistles to hit a more accessible price point. The SU-9n centers on an ESS ES9038PRO DAC chip for solid processing and conversion, with sampling capabilities up to 32-bits at 768 kilohertz. This amounts to an impressive level of detail with a wide dynamic range of up to 130 decibels and less than 0.000055% harmonic distortion. Engineered for durability and versatile connectivity, the SU-9n brings a sleek anodized and chamfered design to your desktop, and features optical and coaxial inputs, alongside balanced outs with RCA or XLR options. It also features Bluetooth 5.0 with support for less-lossy LDAC and aptX codecs for seamless wireless performance.
