Sony Hi-Res TA-ZH1ES
You do not have to settle for anything less than perfect and impressive sound. This high-end headphone amplifier is designed to exceed the boundaries of every audio devices. This is the big leagues of audio reproduction. The high-definition audio will make every sound and tune better so you can feel the music firsthand. Take advantage of the full potential of headphones and experience your music like never before.
Key Features
- High-end digital amplification with correction signals
- Capture all the sound with the advanced processing
- Maximum approximation analog audio
- Durable and precise design
- Different outputs for headphones
Even Better Analogue
The sophistication of the Digital Amplifier S-Master will provide an even better music experience unlike anything you heard. The quality headphones are held to a high performance standard. The hybrid amplifier circuit transfers analog audio to correct any misalignments during switching. Therefore, the sound is better and it is much more natural. To keep everything crystal clear, the DC Phase Linearizer effectively mimics the character of a typical phase analog amplifier and oversees the processing of the advanced FPGA processor.
Inspiring Technology
The DSEE HX will reproduce the finest details of your favorite songs. Enjoy music in high definition, as the musicians intended. The DSEE HX has several modes to increase the resolution according to your preferences. The result is exceptional sound reproduction. The DSD Remastering Engine module converts music from PCM to DSD source in a 11.2 MHz format, making it twice as accurate as other models.
No Compromise
The amplifier also features an innovative chassis design that also contributes to the stunning audio experience. The design also features a large piece of aluminum to isolate the circuit board from vibrations. This prevents the formation of outside noise and provides a pure sound reproduction. The acoustically-tuned panel will also protect against noise.

Sony Corporation is a Japanese company founded in 1946. Its headquarters is located in Tokyo. Its beginnings were humble. The first product sold under the Sony brand was a transistor radio. It was those radios that played a pivotal role in the company's expansion in the 1960s and the world quickly began to associate Sony products with a reliably stellar price-performance ratio.
In the 1970s, Sony was severely affected by the global economic crisis. Many analysts considered the company effectively defunct and could see no future for it. However, they underestimated the famous Japanese perseverance and courage. The crisis was not a disaster for Sony; on the contrary, it served as a launching pad to even greater heights. The company recovered and soon changed the media landscape with the development of the CD and later the DVD. In the early 1990s, Sony achieved another major success with the introduction of the PlayStation gaming console. It is the gaming consoles that best represent the intersection of the three key areas in which the company operates today – electronics, video games, and the entertainment industry.
