Luxsin Audio Unveils New X9 Headphone DAC/Amp Release
The Luxsin Audio X9, a new offering in the world of high-end audio, has made its debut in the U.S. market. This headphone DAC/amplifier, designed for audiophiles, boasts a pedigree that is hard to ignore, as stated by Roger Fortier, the VP and director of sales for Forte Distribution, the U.S. distributor of Luxsin, Evesolo, and Zidoo products.
At its heart, the Luxsin Audio X9 integrates a top-tier AKM AK4499EX DAC chip and a headphone amplifier capable of delivering up to 6000 mW into 16 ohms. This powerful combination ensures ample power and low distortion for demanding headphones.
One of the standout features of the Luxsin Audio X9 is its discrete R2R volume control, which uses a resistor ladder architecture with 0.1 dB precision for excellent left/right channel matching and an analog-like volume adjustment feel.
The Luxsin Audio X9 also boasts a headphone-specific EQ engine that features a database of over 2,500 headphone models with customizable EQ profiles optimized to the Harman target curve. This allows for personalized sound tuning based on the exact headphone in use, providing a tailored audio experience.
The Luxsin Audio X9 supports multiple inputs and connectivity options, including USB, RCA analog input, and HDMI ARC with PCM 192kHz/24-bit. This versatility makes it compatible with modern and vintage devices.
The Luxsin Audio X9 also showcases a high dynamic range and low distortion, with measurements revealing dynamic range and SNR above 128dB, THD+N under 0.00016%, and excellent linearity. These indicators point to very high fidelity performance.
Another innovative feature of the Luxsin Audio X9 is its Headphone Impedance Self-Detection System (HISDS). This system auto-detects the impedance of the connected headphones and automatically selects the optimal gain level for that headphone. This smart gain adjustment provides better protection for the headphones and improves performance by eliminating guesswork related to gain settings.
Notably, the HISDS function operates independently of the sonic output, ensuring that the quality of sound is not compromised during impedance measurement.
The Luxsin Audio X9 headphone DAC/amplifier is now available in the U.S., priced at $1099. For more information about the Luxsin Audio X9, visit https://forte-distribution.com/product/luxsin-x9.
