DESCRIPTION

Antipodes S30/S60 Combo. The S30 employs the V5X board, offers USB and Analog outputs, and is powered by a standard smps power supply brick. The existence of the analog outputs does not mean that an audiophile DAC is included. The Analog outputs are provided as a convenience, enabling a low entry point for a user that does not have an audiophile DAC. The sound quality increases significantly when a quality USB DAC is added. The S30 can be used to run Server Apps and/or Player Apps, but its hardware is optimised for the Player App function. The S60 employs the HSL50 Power Supply, which can be used to dramatically lift the sound quality performance of the S20, S30 and S40. A single S60 can power any two of the S20, S30 and S40. S30 Connections:  Analog Audio Output on Stereo RCAs. USB Audio 2.0 Output. Ethernet Connection to Network on RJ45. Two Servicing Ports. Dual USB Ports – For External CD Ripper (eg. Antipodes K10), or USB Disks. 12VDC Input 3A Minimum. S30 Specifications: Cooling: Passive Fanless Silent. Case: CNC Machined from Solid Alloy. Supported Formats: PCM to 32bit/768kHz, DoP to DSD512, Native DSD to DSD512. Optional Music Storage: 1 User Installable Disk - Up To 8TB SSD or 5TB HDD. Hardware Modules V5X For Server & Player Apps. Power Supply External – SMPS – 12v 3A. The analog sound is very detailed and musical, and it provides an elegant solution for someone who does not have a separate high-end DAC. Remarks: Some signs of wear that include aesthetic issues such as minor scratches and dents. We can provide you with pictures. b) Retail price of the combo when new: S30-€3.990 and S60-€1.950.
