Aune X5s Desktop Music Player

Today, Aune Audio has launched their latest desktop digital music player, the all-new Aune X5s 8th Anniversary Edition. The X5s 8th Anniversary Edition is the fourth generation of the Aune X5 series with Freescale™ 600M processor, a low-level hardware solution player framework. It enables the X5s 8th generation to support decoding for high-resolution audio signals up to 32-Bit/768kHz PCM and DSD512 and at the same time, it supports key digital player clock input interface. Aune X5s 8th Gen is officially launched today for 299$.

Aune X5s 8th Generation Anniversary Edition

The architecture of the X5s 8th Generation is similar to a CD player, the entire CPU is only used for audio restoration. Focusing primarily on high-quality audio decoding with support for PCM up to 32-Bit/768kHz and DSD up to DSd512 natively.

The main processor in Aune X5s 8th Anniversary edition directly decodes the audio file and transmits the data to a fourth-generation FPGA with its own low-jitter clock, regenerating the low-jitter digital signal and reproducing every single detail of the music.
