SPECIAL FEATURES
Immersive soundscapes for your spaces
The CAS1 High-Resolution Audio system with built-in dual amplifiers accurately recreates original sound spaces through stereo speakers or headphones for immersive experiences.
Hi-Res Audio: The Way The Artists Truly Intended
Enjoy the subtlest nuances of studio-quality sound in higher-than-CD quality with High-Resolution Audio. Passion for music unites every component from signal to speaker, so it feels like the artist is performing right in front of you.
Dual amps for two music experiences
Independent amplification systems deliver outstanding High-Resolution Audio experiences for the distinct amplification requirements of headphones and speakers.
Near-field listening
Experience especially rich sound spaces, accurately recreated within 75 to 200 cm of the separate speakers.
Headphone listening
Independent high-quality DAC and headphone amp deliver High-Resolution Audio headphone listening.
Place yourself center stage
Experience your music with live performance richness through stereophonic sound reproduction that recreates the original sound space. Separate speakers distinctively create sound and improve directionality for immersive listening experiences, even in small spaces.
Enhancing your existing music
DSEE HX upscales existing sound sources to near high resolution sound quality, making you feel as if you are really there at the recording studio or concert.
More stunning realism than you ever heard
S-Master HX full digital amp technology, uniquely developed for High-Resolution Audio, reduces distortion and noise across a wide range of frequencies for rich, full-bodied sound.
Balancing powerful and precise sound
An independent headphone amp and high-end digital-analogue conversion (DAC) drive headphone sound.
Easily achieve the best listening position
Easily position speakers for best listening point. Place separate speakers 75-200 cm away for optimal listening position. Included brass spikes let you adjust the speaker angle, and included speaker bases provide stable acoustics on any surface.
Powerful, extended bass
The customized bass reflex port allows the compact speakers to reproduce deep, satisfying bass.
Well-balanced sound output
Brass spikes elevate speakers to dampen high frequencies and fix woofer-tweeter route discrepancy.
Uncompromised richness at any volume
Technologies like Pulse Height Volume and Low Volume Mode ensure dynamic audio response even where other digital amplifiers suffer, at low volumes.
Enjoy higher quality listening on various headphone types
A high grade amplifier drives the sound for both in-ear and over ear headphones. CAS1's dedicated headphone amp and separate high-end DAC adjusts output for more isolated headphone listening experiences. Use the dedicated headphone gain toggle switch to match impedance to headphone type to enhance the listening experience for headphones of varying impedance.
Gain toggle switch
Adjustable gain lets you use your favorite headphones. Use HI/LOW to match impedance to headphone type.
Robust headphone jack
Quality metal parts for stable connections and less distortion. Mini plug socket for wide compatibility.
Easy connections for wireless streaming
Wirelessly connect mobile devices to the separate speakers for convenience and improved sound. Stream your music with detail and clarity using Bluetooth and high-quality LDAC audio codecs.
High quality wireless audio streaming
LDAC is a new audio technology from Sony that allows you to enjoy high quality wireless audio via Bluetooth. Transmitting up to three times more data, LDAC produces an enhanced wireless listening experience for all your music.
