With the S9c Pro, Aune presents a versatile, high-performance hi-fi device in an elegantly designed enclosure. The S9C PRO is a DAC/headphone amplifier that can also be used as a preamplifier with active speakers. Integrated from the Aune we find professional audiophile components such as two ES9068AS DAC chips and a USB XMOS interface, which allows it to decode up to 32bit 768 kHz PCM, DSD512 and MQA 16x. It also features an ultra-low jitter PLL clock synchronization system and a 50W toroidal transformer coupled to 23900 µF capacitors. The amplification stage is also very sophisticated, thanks to the integration of 16 dual JFET transistors (2 per output channel). But what makes this DAC/headphone amplifier so special is how it processes the signal. The analog input signal is converted into an I2S signal, making it possible to separate the clock signal from the data, thus feeding the XMOS interface and the DAC with the same current.

  • Balanced headphone amplifier
  • Supports up to 32bit/768k and DSD512
  • Generous amount of inputs/outputs
  • Large and clear display
  • DAC chip: 2 x ESS ES9068A
  • 3 headphone outputs (6.35mm, 4.4mm and XLR)
  • Bluetooth (LDAC, aptX HD, aptX, AAC, SBC)
  • Run it in "fixed" mode on the outputs or variable to e.g. run active speakers and control the volume with S9c
  • Can be connected directly to a smartphone
  • Aluminum remote control

High definition audio performance:
Immerse yourself in the world of high definition audio with the Aune S9c. With support for 32bit/768k and DSD512, this DAC ensures that every nuance of your favorite music is faithfully reproduced, providing an authentic and lifelike listening experience.

Dual ESS ES9068A DAC chips:
At the heart of the Aune S9c are dual ESS ES9068A DAC chips, known for their exceptional signal-to-noise ratio and low distortion. These high-performance chips work together to bring out the full potential of your sound, delivering crystal-clear detail and an expansive soundstage.

Versatile connectivity options:
Connectivity is key, and the Aune S9c offers multiple connection options via cable but also Bluetooth with support for LDAX, and aptX HD. Whether you use USB, coaxial, AES or optical input, this DAC ensures a seamless connection with your audio source, whether it's a computer, smartphone or other digital devices.

Delicate Class A headphone amplification:
The Aune S9c isn't just a DAC; it's also a powerful headphone amplifier. With a dedicated circuit for amplification, it provides ample power to drive a wide range of headphones, from high-impedance audiophile headphones to lower-sensitivity in-ear headphones, ensuring optimal performance for any listening scenario.

Intuitive design and construction:
Crafted with precision and attention to detail, the Aune S9c features a sleek chassis that not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also provides effective heat dissipation. The front panel is adorned with a clear OLED color display for easy navigation.

Buy&Try applies to the entire Aune, Auralic, Quadral, Sbooster & Taga range.

Buy & try gives you as a customer the opportunity to try out the product in your own home environment, instead of standing in a stressful store and trying to form an opinion. Rooms behave very differently and affect the sound in different ways and we give you the opportunity to demo the product for a full 30 days, in your own home.

 

If for some reason you feel dissatisfied, just contact us and we will help you with the return shipping, you can also take advantage of our shipping agreements with lower prices. Costs that will be charged to the customer are the shipping to the customer and the return shipping to us at MYC HiFi. For return approval, the item must be returned in new condition and in the original packaging.

 

Regarding speakers, be aware that speakers may need a long recording time to come into their own. After a couple of hours you can usually get a taste of what to expect, but a speaker deserves 100h+ before serious listening. The speakers we sell with ribbon tweeters need several hundred hours before they start to sing. So feel free to leave the speakers on around the clock so you can quickly accumulate hours.

 

If you have any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to contact us.

 

 

  • Buy & Try applies to goods that are normally kept in stock and not to order goods, unless otherwise agreed.
