The Matrix element M DAC/Amp provides a desktop two-channel stereo simplification solution for mid-range active speaker and headphone users. It uses the ES9028PRO advanced D/A solution and SiTime low phase noise clock to maximize its potential performance. The element M is a powerful audio playback system based on Freescale quad-core ARM computing platform and supports all popular audio formats. It functions as a high quality headphone amp that has a bipolar input stage that effectively rejects common-mode distortion. The output stage for the headphone amp is set in a high quiescent current state, giving you an intriguing mellow sound performance.


The element M can be controlled using the included RM3 infrared remote control or through the app. The double-shell structure of the element M changes the fixed resonant frequency and reduces the negative impact of resonance on sound quality. Finally, it has an Android App with iOS App in the works, and allows you to push music through AirPlay or DLNA.
