MQAdecoderformasterqualitystreaming
In order to achieve an Analog waveform closer to the original signal, the NT-505 supports MQA decoding while also
supporting high sampling rate Hi-Res formats like DSD512 and PCM32/768. The MQA decoder is a totally new technology
that controls Analog waveforms with excellent precision (as ne as 5 microseconds) and it reproduces sound in a manner
that is perceived to be as close as possible to the original (to human hearing). Furthermore, a high-eciency compression
algorithm makes huge Hi-Res audio les compact in size, so you will be able to enjoy Hi-Res audio sources regardless of
the speed of your Internet connection. * MQA Ready is scheduled to be deployed in the near future.

In addition to conventional SBC and AAC codecs, the NT-505 also supports LDAC™ (24/96 Hi-Res audio transmission),
and Qualcomm
®
aptX™ HD, a codec that uses 24/48 format transmission. These allow you to playback playlists on your
smartphone and tablet wirelessly.

Instead of referencing to an unstable and noisy PC clock during USB audio playback, a more accurate and on-board clock
is generated by a high-precision, low phase-noise, audio-grade crystal oscillator for USB asynchronous transfer mode.
