PS Audio – Stellar Gain Cell & M700 – DAC, Preamplifier and Mono Block Combo
Experience the perfect amalgamation of cutting-edge technology and unadulterated sound with PS Audio – Stellar Gain Cell & M700 – DAC, Preamplifier and Mono Block Combo. The Stellar Gain Cell is an impressive confluence of high-quality DACs and an uncompromising analog preamplifier, providing for a zero-loss combination that will redefine your musical experience. This full-featured digital to analog converter and high-class analog amplification is meticulously constructed to deliver music filled with rich textures and toe-tapping energy that will delight even the most discerning audiophile.
The system’s heart houses a Bob Stadtherr designed, beautiful DAC, based on the industry leading Sabre32 bit Hyperstream architecture and a fully balanced Class A analog output stage, promising pristine audio output. Its unique Gain Cell technology, developed by PS Audio founder Paul McGowan, innovatively tackles the arching problem of volume control faced by conventional preamp designs, ensuring a purer and more accurate sound.
On the other hand, the Stellar M700 presents an innovative solution to amplifier design, perfectly amalgamating the power and control of Class D with the sweet, tube-like quality of Class A biased MOSFETs at the input stage. Hand-tuned to capture even the minutest of micro-dynamics, the proprietary, fully differential, zero feedback, discrete, Class A MOSFET circuit – the Analog Cell, is at the heart of M700’s musicality, promising an unmatched sound experience. Whether it’s the intricate layers of music’s inner details or the loudest macro dynamics, Stellar’s Analog Cell ensures it resonates within you.
