Matrix - Element i

With the help of MA player, no matter at the desk, beside your TV, in the bedroom or dining room, element i is always waiting for your playback commands. Get rid of computers, as long as you are on the same Wi-Fi or wired network, use Airplay, DLNA or playback your collected digital audio. Click HERE to learn more about MA player.

MA Remote app is available for iPhone, iPad and Android phones now. Browse and play your own high-quality digital audio, or enjoy hi-res streaming audio, whatever you want. MA Remote is now integrated with TIDAL service, Qobuz is also coming. In addition, it’s also ROON Ready. Find element audio device and control from ROON Remote, making playback faster.

element i has a discrete component headphone amp with up to 1300mw of power, it can easily drive various high-resistance full-sized headphones and high-sensitive IEMs. The excellent dynamic performance and inaudible background noise, make you concentrate to the music. The device can be controlled by IR remote and MA Remote app, you can easily control the volume and input channels even if connecting to active speakers or power amplifiers.

element i aim to cost-effective, but the hardware is still powerful enough: the Freescale i.MX6 series dual-core ARM processor is used as the master core of the MA player, the D/A converting module is using the ES9028PRO 8-channel D/A chip from ESS and XU208 audio interface from XMOS. As an entry model, we keep the IIS LVDS port, which allow element i to connect to USB interface with femtosecond clocks.

element i is powered by an external power supply. Audiophiles can upgrade their external linear power supply according to their requirements and explore the potential of element i. Even so, the power conditioning section in element i is never compromised. Each circuit unit still uses multi-channel low-ripple LDO independently, as the basis of good sound performance.

Matrix element H
Born For Hi-Fi
element H USB 3.0 interface is designed for increasing the USB audio quality of computer. It increased the data transport quality and reduced the power supply noise, which make changes to your PC Hi-Fi system from the source.
Femtosecond Clock
element H uses Crystek CCHD-575 super-low noise femtosecond clock coordinate with USB 3.0 bridge chip from Texas Instruments, open up independent data channel for USB audio stream. It helps signal bypass the USB controller integrated in the motherboard, avoid sharing data channels with other USB devices.
High Quality Bus Power Supply
element H integrated multiple filter units for USB power supply, uses solid capacitors and low noise high current LDO chips. Even if use the USB internal power supply, it also can effectively eliminate the high frequency noise caused by the PC switching power. The USB port can supply a maximum current at 5V/1.5A for all audio devices supplied by the USB port. and can prevent devices from over current or short circuit.
External Power Supply Supported
There are internal and external power supply available, you can choose these kinds of power supply on element H by sliding the switch on the panel. You also can turn off the USB bus power supply for the devices which has independent power supply.
Superb Performance & Stylish Design
With four-layer PCB of high speed circuit design standard, strictly in according with high-speed circuit design specifications. The circuit meet the differential pair impedance standard and the equal line length demand. The CNC aluminum chassis prevent the radiated interference effectively, giving consideration to the heat dissipation requirements of the power supply chip on board.
