Technics SU-G30 Network Amplifier Launched
Technics have released their new amplifier with built-in network player for the “new generation of audio”.
Borrowing its design philosophy from the Reference Class, Technics say that: “the SU-G30 delivers uncompromising sound quality for a premium, next-generation listening experience. Designed to reproduce the natural and delicate nuances of music, the SU-G30 performs beautifully with both original digital and analogue sources”.
They explained further “Jitter is a major cause of distortion in digital systems, and is caused by mis-timing in the master clocks used in digital-to-analogue conversion. To eliminate the degradation of sound caused by jitter, the SU-G30 utilises an original jitter reduction circuit, reducing jitter across the entire frequency range. The JENO (Jitter Elimination and Noise-shaping Optimisation) engine works with a newly-developed high-precision Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) conversion circuit, which optimises the noise-shaping speed, degree and requantysation number and the PWM gradation, to convert high-resolution signals to PWM without causing any damage to the dynamic range”.
The high-speed GaN FET (gallium nitride) driver device allows the length of the large current carrying signal path to be shortened, thanks to the construction the amp with a single push-pull configuration. The SU-G30’s LAPC (Load Adaptive Phase Calibration) optimises the impulse response and utilises correction processing. The hybrid power supply reduces switching noise while maintaining driving power.
The SU-G30 is also equipped with a Bluetooth® function that supports aptX® and AAC. It also includes the MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) technology, which enables playback of MQA audio files and streams. In addition to DLNA and USB playback capability, the SU-G30 supports TIDAL, Spotify Connect and vTuner.
