Cen.Grand 9i-90SA Pro

The Lark 2nd Generation

The 9i-90SA Pro is a very versatile and compact all in one unit as it is a balanced DAC/pre and headphone amplifier. XLR and RCA analogue in, USB Galvanic Isolation, Current feedback circuit for the headphone amplification stage, high and low impedance options, 4 digital inputs, 4 pin XLR and 4.4mm Pentaconn balanced headphone ports, XLR and RCA rear outputs, 4 headphone output modes.

The LPF is a balanced structure and a high performance Texas Instruments LME49720 opamp was used. The analogue output section is composed of a discrete device architecture which has been carefully tuned to correct the sound. The volume control chip is a high performance Texas Instruments PGA2311 chip which controlled by MCU and the volume range is -70db~0db. Its common volume has been optimised, volume adjustment and listening habits are more coordinated and there are reliable protection measures.

    Great preamp section!

    The preamp section fed from the fixed outputs of a Marantz HD-DAC1 actually sounds better to my taste than the DAC section but that could be a placebo effect since the DAC plays softer. I use it as a headphone amp and my headphone never sounded so good!

    Pros:

    + Detailed sound
    + Nice soundstage with great depth and width

    Cons:

    - Device gets warm (no ventilation holes)
    - Remote lacks power button
