HiFiMAN Launching HM-801 PMP in JuneBy Simon - 05/13/2009 11:40:24 AM |
HiFiMAN will launch their audiophile-friendly HM-801 PMP next month, with high-spec DAC and a modular amplifier design that allows users to switch around their choice of amps. The HM-801 is based on the well-respected Burr-Brown PCM1704 DAC, together with the OPA627 op-amp, and uses SDHC cards for up to 128GB of storage.
The whole thing measures 114 x 78 x 25.5 mm. In addition to music from the SDHC card, you can also plug in a coaxial feed from your CD player. Outputs include both headphone and line-out.
Anticipated battery life is 6-8hrs, and file format support is as follows:
APE Fast/Normal/High Mode
AAC 16K-320Kbps
FLAC/WMA lossless VBR 44.1kHz (will support 24bit 96KHz via software upgrade in the future)
WMA 8-355kbps
OGG Quality 0 – Quality 10
WAV PCM, MS-ADPCM, IMA-ADPCM
MP3
Pre-orders are being taken for the HiFiMAN HM-801, which is priced at $600 for members of the Head-Fi forum with an estimated retail price of at least $700.
