TEAC NT-505-X Black — High-End DAC and Streamer

A compact solution for high-end audio enthusiasts, combining top-tier sound quality with modern connectivity. The TEAC NT-505-X Black is a dual-mono USB DAC and network streamer designed for maximum performance in digital audio systems. Supporting DSD up to 11.2 MHz (DSD256/DSD512), PCM up to 384 kHz / 32-bit, and full MQA decoding, it delivers unparalleled sonic clarity. Its elegant metal chassis not only provides an aesthetic appeal but also ensures silent, fanless operation —a feature highly valued by users who prioritize a quiet listening environment.

Superior Sound and Support for Modern Formats

Thanks to advanced digital processing and technologies such as DSD up to 512 (via USB) and a full MQA decoder, you can experience recordings in their highest possible quality. The upsampling function (to DXD or DSD) enhances playback quality even from standard digital sources. The TEAC NT-505-X is therefore ideal not only for professional audio engineers but also for audiophiles who wish to hear every nuance of their music.

For quick connection of wireless devices, Bluetooth with LDAC and aptX™ is available, ensuring high-quality audio transmission.
