New Premium Products from Marantz are always a reason for the audiophile community to celebrate. And the new 14 Series Special Edition thrusts the audio experience to new levels – because this Special Edition has been lovingly fine-tuned and passionately optimized for High-Resolution files: marking the new era in music adoration.

The SA-14S1 Special Edition includes a heavy 5mm thick aluminum top lid and highly rigid feet to minimize vibration as well as an oversized Toroidal transformer and a strong power supply section that generates the cleanest of power to eliminate components cross-contamination.

This is the perfect platform reference-quality sound. It includes a DAC-Mode that’s almost identical in functionality to that of the revolutionary, award-winning NA-11S1. It has optical and coaxial digital input as well as USB-B for direct connection to a PC. This means it provides direct high-definition audio streaming from your PC so you can make use of the high-quality DAC and the high-quality audio output stage with HDAM-SA2 modules. That’s why, importantly, this newly developed player also includes our latest ground/signal isolator technology, to virtually eliminate PC noise.

The player can operate as a soundcard for your PC and the USB-B port works in asynchronous mode to support not only 192kHz / 24bits but also the DSD 2.8MHz and 5.6MHz for maximized versatility and performance. It even has a USB input on the front to play MP3, WAV, and AAC formats, and, of course, it’s iPod/iPhone compatible. This is Super Audio CD quality in the sublime, and more. Much more.

          Compared to other disc players that employ multiple op-amp ICs, the SA-14S1 Special Edition features our exclusive HDAM technology that employs dedicated modules featuring discrete components that together deliver a wide dynamic range and fast slew rate for a true wideband response.

          Reference Class D/A Conversion

          Reference Class D/A Conversion

          To handle the widest range of disc and audio file types, the SA-14S1 Special Edition incorporates the reference class CS4398 digital-to-analog converter, which provides up to 192 kHz/24-bit resolution, along with DSD decoding with Super Audio CDs. To prevent interference between the various stages, the power supply, digital audio stage, and analog audio stages each feature their circuit boards. A variety of disc and file types are supported including music CDs and Super Audio CDs, as well as linear PCM, AAC, MP3, and WAV file types.

          It is all about creating a good foundation before starting to take care of the processing and amplification of sensitive audio signals. With a solid base, we ensure that vibration will be kept to a minimum not influencing the audio signal by microphonic effects to keep it unaltered.

          High Current Power Supply

          The power supply features a large high current toroidal power transformer that features OFC (oxygen-free copper) secondary windings, along with high speed, high current Schottky Barrier Diodes in the rectifier stage for the purest DC voltage output.

          Expanded Connectivity

          Along with the analog stereo outputs, there are also digital and coaxial outputs for connection to an external digital decoder or amplifier, and the SA-14S1 Special Edition is also equipped with optical and coaxial inputs that allow you to use the player as a standalone digital audio convertor. There are remote control input and output jacks that let you connect the SA-14S1 Special Edition to other compatible Marantz components, and an internal/external switch on the rear panel provides additional system control flexibility.

          Convenient Front USB-A Port

          Conveniently located on the front panel, the USB port lets you connect your favorite portable audio device as well as USB media, and the port features compatibility with the iPod, iPod touch, and the iPhone which lets you enjoy direct digital connection for the utmost audio fidelity.

          System Remote Control

          The elegant remote control features an intuitive ergonomic layout, and is equipped with amplifier control functions that let you use a single remote control to operate the SA-14S1 Special Edition and the matching PM-14S1 Special Edition premium integrated stereo amplifier.

          Low Noise Fluorescent Display

          The deluxe low noise fluorescent display features clear, easy-to-read alpha-numeric characters and is compatible with text-encoded Super Audio CDs. There's a display control button on the remote control that lets you dim the display or even turn it off if you wish.

          Dedicated Headphone Output

          Connect your favorite headphones directly to the convenient front-panel headphone jack, which also features its variable volume control. The headphone circuit is designed to be compatible with the widest range of headphone types and is compatible with lower impedance headphones as well.
