QUAD integrated amplifier USB/DAC built-in Vena/S (Silver)

【Voltage Compatibility】 When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction. 【Plug Type】 Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type). Please use a conversion adapter if necessary. 【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】 A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements. A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage. Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product. 【Liability】 We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer.

Vena II depicts the future of Hi-Fi audio. QUAD, a long-established British audio brand, will release the Vena II, an updated version of the Vena integrated amplifier, one of the products that has been in high demand in recent years. We added new features and improved acoustic performance to create an affordable, high-performance audio system. When the Vena amplifier was introduced in 2014, it featured wireless streaming via aptX Bluetooth, a very advanced feature at the time, as well as USB, optical and coaxial digital inputs. The stylish compact body with a width of 313mm looks sleek and modern, but it still carries the QUAD DNA. Neatly arranged source selection buttons and a large, smooth volume control decorate its face, giving it an elegant look that's also equipped with the latest digital technology. In addition, a phono stage has been added in response to the recent analog boom. Digital technology development The Vena II looks identical to the original Vena, but has significant technological upgrades. The digital audio circuit has been improved and the Cirrus Logic DAC chip used in the Vena has been replaced with the ESS Saber32 ES9018K2M DAC chip in the Vena II. This allows Vena II to leverage the 32-bit chip performance of ESS technology, achieving ultra-low noise and high dynamic range at the same time. The SS Saber32 ES9018K2M DAC chip has excellent performance, but the basic design is important for it to be effective. One of the key elements here is the post-DAC active filter. QUAD's design team maximized the performance of the SS Saber32 ES9018K2M by selecting the optimal op amp to maximize synergy with the SS Saber32 ES9018K2M. As a result, the digital signal sent by the SS Saber32 ES9018K2M DAC chip reproduces a spacious sound field. When it comes to high-resolution file compatibility, Vena offers 24 While it maxed out at bit/192kHz PCM, Vena II expands this to 32bit/384kHz along with DSD (up to DSD256). As a result, it is now possible to play high-resolution music format files. Connections made for simplicity The exterior design of Vena II is distinctive in expressing its simplicity. QUAD's design team chose aptX for superior audio quality for Bluetooth wireless streaming, making it easy to pair with all kinds of smartphones, tablets, PCs, and Macs. Vena II looks like a traditional hi-fi amplifier with simple front-mounted controls and a simple remote control, but its specifications are customized for modern music lovers. Also, the versatility of the amplifier is improved by providing a wide variety of input terminals. The digital input consists of 4 systems (1 coaxial, 2 optical, USB Type B), and the digital output is 2 systems (optical and coaxial). Analog inputs consist of 3 systems (2 line level and MM phono for turntable). You can also add an external power amplifier via the pre-out terminal.
