What is exactly the Matrix Audio Element X?

• Of course, first of all it is a top-of-the-line Digital to Analog Converter (DAC for short) capable of decoding PCM material up to 32 bit/768 kHz and natively decode DSD material up to 45 MHz also called as DSD16 or DSD1024 because the sample rate is 1024 times that of CD (1024 times of 48 kHz) – that is a first in the DAC realm!
• It is a powerful desktop headphone amplifier capable of outputting up to 1700mW of power on the 4-pin and dual 3-pin XLR balanced headphone outputs or 1150mW of power on dual ¼” (6.35mm) headphone outputs
• It is a dedicated Hyper-Control pre-amp that can output 4.5 Vrms at 0 dB and up to 15.8 Vrms at +10dB
• It is an advanced hardware music player that can be controlled via the Matrix Audio app on your smartphone, just plug in your microSD card or an external USB drive and listen to your favorite tunes without attaching a PC to it, very neat!
• It is an advanced Wi-Fi streamer that can stream music from your local NAS drive through DLNA, AirPlay, it is also Roon enabled. Matrix Audio will also support very soon major streaming services (Tidal, Spotify, Deezer and so on) using the MA app, it should come with the next software update.

As you can see this is not your typical DAC, but an advanced all-in-one solution that should please a lot of folks.

If offers 9 digital inputs (that is right, Nine of them): 2 coaxial, 2 optical, one USB type-B, one highly advanced i2S-LVDS input thought HDMI that bypasses the internal USB interface, one microSD card slot and two USB host inputs – you can use an external flash drive, an external HDD or even an iPhone (using the CCK cable) or an Android device (only few are supported that offer USB OTG functionality).
