Magnetar UDP900 4K UHD Blu-ray Player

Magnetar UDP900 4K UHD Blu-ray Player

The Magnetar UDP900 is built with a high-quality, 6-layer gold immersion PCB design, using an ultra-precise, low-noise TCXO temperature-compensated crystal oscillator, giving it an edge over the UDP800's already impressive power supply. Murata's multilayer ceramic capacitors, TDK magnetic components, and 30 NCC electrolytic capacitors enhance both audio and video performance. The audio boards feature a 4-layer PCB with independent wiring for each channel, fitted with high-precision TCXO oscillators, ELNA, NCC audio capacitors, along with Red WIMA and ELNA SILMIC II capacitors. It also comes with an independent, high-powered linear power supply module with Hi-Fi XLR balanced terminals and gold-plated RCA outputs, delivering superior audiophile-level sound.

Premium Build Quality: The UDP900 is an imposing yet beautifully styled component, measuring 445 x 133 x 321 mm and weighing in at a substantial 15.4 kg. It sports a robust all-aluminium alloy body, reinforced with a double-layer chassis for added stability. Internal components are housed in a metal shield to minimise vibrations, noise, and interference from external magnetic fields, ensuring pristine audio and video clarity.

Outstanding Picture and Sound Quality: Supporting Dolby Vision and HDR10+ for superior dynamic range, the UDP900 delivers incredible visuals. It's also equipped with ESS9038PRO D/A decoding for 2-channel XLR balanced and RCA unbalanced outputs, while the ESS9028PRO handles 7.1 RCA output. There's even an XMOS USB audio input for added versatility.

Supports a Wide Range of Media and Connections: The UDP900 is compatible with a variety of disc formats, including 4K UHD BD, BD-R, BD-RE, DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, SACD, CD, and CD-R/RW. With USB 3.0 support, it can handle external drives up to 16TB, and DLNA, SMB, and NFS protocols let you share video, music, and photos easily. It supports a wide array of media formats like MKV, AVI, MP4, WAV, FLAC, APE, and DSD, so you can effortlessly manage and play files stored locally or across your network.

Dual Power Supply Design: A 60W toroidal transformer powers the analogue audio, with an imported magnetic core, oxygen-free copper wiring, metal shielding, and epoxy filling to keep vibrations, noise, and heat in check. Alongside there is a 60W switch mode power supply making sure the digital section gets all the clean power it requires. This thoughtful design improves both power efficiency and overall audio quality.
