Any sources you connect to your DSM System via HDMI will sound better as they will benefit from the superior DAC and custom Linn up-sampling of the audio. Any video content on the HDMI signal will be passed through to the TV or output device connected via the HDMI out. Audio content will also be automatically passed through if the DSM is in Sleep mode.
With HDMI inputs, you can now play back SACD (Super Audio CD) and DVD-A (DVD Audio) discs by connecting the disc player to your DSM System. SACD content will be down-sampled to 176.4 K or 88.2 k and multi-channel audio down-mixed to stereo but this does allow high-quality playback of discs which cannot currently be ripped for streaming.

LUXMAN PD-171A
Allow the musical character within the groove to truly breathe
PD-171 has been a highly regarded analogue player in the market due to its ability to convey the sense of musical depth and feeling of vinyl records. There are two new revisions, an armless type, the PD-171AL, and the PD-171A, with a universal tone arm, adjustable to the users requirements and systems. At the heart of these models is a newly developed, high output power supply circuit and an AC synchronous motor. We have incorporated ideas developed for our audio amplifiers and have adopted a belt drive system which rotates a high inertia, heavyweight turntable. A high quality hairline finished aluminum upper surface blends beautifully with the wooden base cabinet to conceal the robust and accurate machinery within, developing a warmer and softer personality with whom the listener may spend many hours of enjoyment, expressing the true personality of analogue recordings.
ARCAM CDS50 CD/SACD Network Player
CDS50
Our most advanced cd, digital audio and network streaming player yet
In a sense, digital audio doesn’t exist. You’d have to be a particularly dull superhero to possess ears that can decode the millions of 1’s and 0’s that make up your CD collection or iTunes library. Whatever the source – be it a laptop, CD player, smartphone, USB stick – the result is just a vibration in your speakers. In other words, it all winds up analogue in the end.
Arguably, when playing from a digital format, the most vital component is the DAC, or Digital to Analogue Converter. We’ll spare you the bulk of the science, but this is what translates that otherwise lifeless binary code into audible sound energy. Bit-depth, meanwhile, is a key measure of audio quality.
So, if you’re listening to a 24-bit WAV copy of your favourite album through a DAC that only converts to 16-bit, there’s a good chunk of detail going to waste right there. That’s why we’ve included 32-bit DACs on the entire HDA range – the most commonly used bit-depth in digital recording – so you’re guaranteed the full aural picture of whatever the artist intended.
