Matrix Audio proudly presents the TS-1, a new-generation all-in-one solution. Adhering to the core philosophy of "simplifying complexity", the TS-1 seamlessly integrates a streamer, DAC and headphone amplifier into one compact device. Pair it with your favorite headphones or active speakers, and you'll have a compact high-quality Hi-Fi system ready to go. Our Take Whether you’re a digital audio guy seeking convenience or a discerning audiophile with picky ears for sound quality, the TS-1 offers a one-stop solution that strips away the unnecessary and brings music back to its pure essence. Focused on Experience Powered by the Hi-Fi streaming hardware platform from the Matrix Audio M Series, the TS-1 delivers a significant leap in performance. Its upgraded display and the continuously evolving MA Player Hi-Fi Streaming OS, paired with the MA Remote App, provide seamless compatibility with both iOS and Android devices. Access an extensive library of high-resolution music, including TIDAL, Qobuz, HIGHRESAUDIO and internet radio - all seamlessly integrated into one device or mount your NAS drive to the device, allowing you to create a music library directly from your NAS. If your music is stored in the cloud drive, such as Baidu Netdisk, it can also be mounted directly on the device. TS-1 has support for streaming protocols including Roon Ready, Audirvana, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, Spotify Conncet, AirPlay2, QPlay and UPnP/DLNA. With the MA Remote App, music files from NAS and cloud drive can be copied to internal storage of TS-1 conveniently. Whether using a smartphone or tablet, you'll experience an effortlessly smooth and intuitive user experience. All-In-One Audio Center for your Home Designed with the concept of an "all-scenario audio center," it features five input interfaces: optical, coaxial, USB Audio, HDMI ARC, and RCA analog inputs. Whether it is in living room entertainment, in a desktop setup, a vinyl system, or modern streaming music, all audio sources can be seamlessly connected to achieve "one device for all scenarios". Effortlessly switch audio sources using the IR remote or the MA Remote App. With high-standard XLR and RCA analog output interfaces, building an active speaker system becomes easier. No need to worry about amplifier matching or complex wiring—whether creating a desktop Hi-Fi system or enhancing your living room entertainment, you can achieve studio-quality sound in a minimalist way. The analog outputs offer two output voltage settings, catering to active speakers with different gain requirements. A newly added subwoofer output specifically handles audio frequencies below 150Hz with synchronized volume control of the line output. With this interface, you can easily connect an active subwoofer to compensate for the limited low-frequency extension of small active speakers. Whether you're enjoying music or watching TV, it creates a more immersive audio experience and opens up new possibilities for a 2.1-channel setup. Refined Tuning Equipped with 6.35mm unbalanced and 4.4mm balanced outputs, the new fully balanced, high-bias discrete headphone amplifier has an output impedance of just 1 ohm. This ensures effective voltage dynamics, even with low-impedance, high-sensitivity headphones. Especially tuned for modern high-resolution headphones, it maintains high-frequency extension while subtly restraining the highs for a more comfortable, long-term listening experience. With a two-level output voltage setting, it effortlessly handles both low-impedance IEMs and high-impedance full-sized headphones. Aditionally, the TS-1 is specially designed with an DC power input to unlock its full performance potential when adding a linear power supply. When both external power and AC power are connected, the system prioritizes the external power supply and disconnects the AC power, retaining only the ground connection. Additionally, the product is equipped with a power filter and multiple low-noise LDOs to power each circuit unit independently, ensuring pure and stable power delivery in every aspect. Fully Balanced DAC with Independent Layered Design Featuring a fully balanced design from digital to analog, each channel is equipped with an AK4493SEQ chip, with its dual DAC units operating in parallel. This configuration significantly enhances dynamic range, bringing richer sound details and more distinct layering. Notably, the power supply sections of the two DAC chips are completely independent, with each chip powered by a dual-channel ultra-low-noise LDO. This ensures that the performance of the DAC chips is fully unleashed, delivering pure, high-fidelity audio output. Ingeniously, the analog and digital circuits are arranged on separate PCB layers, with the digital section on the lower layer and the analog section on the upper layer. This approach minimizes interference between circuits and facilitates efficient heat dissipation for the high-bias headphone amplifier. The analog PCB features a fully symmetrical left-right design, ensuring stable audio signal transmission from the circuit architecture level. This not only enhances audio performance but also improves the overall reliability of the product. Equipped with two compact ultra-low phase noise femtosecond clocks, each dedicated to serving as the clock reference for 44.1kHz and 48kHz sampling rates and their multiples. Powered by independent low-noise linear regulators, and with intelligent control through FPGA, it automatically handles frequency division and switching operations. This design lays a solid foundation for low-jitter digital audio output. Digital Management and Shareable Internal Storage Simply connect an USB CD drive and use the MA Remote App, you can convert CD albums into digital audio files and save them to the device's internal storage. This process creates a digital copy of your precious CDs, seamlessly combining the high-quality audio of CDs with the flexible management of streamers. Users can enjoy the unique ritual of CD playback while transcending the limitations of physical media, turning valuable music resources into digital formats for convenient playback. Let music become a constant, beautiful companion in your life. With the SMB protocol, computers on the same network can easily access the device's storage, making it simple to manage your music library. Additionally, the device can function as a NAS, enabling other streamers on the same network to seamlessly play the stored music. The bottom of the device features an NVMe SSD slot, allowing for the installation of an SSD to expand internal storage. A specially designed ultra-low-noise independent power supply ensures a quiet operating environment for the SSD, which surpasses what an ordinary computer can offer.
