{"product_id":"smsl-su-1","title":"SMSL SU-1 Hi-Res Desktop DAC","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe SMSL SU-1 is the compact entry into SMSL's SU line: an AK4493S converter behind an XMOS XU316 interface, decoding MQA and MQA-CD and handling PCM to 768kHz\/32bit plus DSD512. For a unit this small, the spec sheet is close to the full-size boxes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's a DAC only, which is the point — buy it when you already have a headphone amplifier or active monitors and want a clean, small, well-specified source in front of them. Two-box systems built around the SU-1 and a separate amp tend to age better than all-in-ones, since you can upgrade either half independently. It's also a good desk-space answer where a full-width chassis simply won't fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAK4493S DAC chip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eXMOS XU316 USB interface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMQA and MQA-CD decoding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e768kHz\/32bit PCM, DSD512\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SMSL","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":45377067188359,"sku":"SMSL SU-1-black","price":73.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/5833\/0247\/files\/7505426062.jpg?v=1785503052","url":"https:\/\/tonepier.com\/products\/smsl-su-1","provider":"TonePier","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
