Hi all,
Just came back from CEDIA 2014 which was held Sept 10-13 in Denver. Wadia has some very exciting new products coming for this Fall.
First, there is an all new 1 series, which is slightly wider than the 3 series with similar cosmetics and chassis material; the chassis is made of cast aluminum with smoked glass top.
The di122 DAC has 4 S/PDIF inputs capable of 24/192 resolution. The USB input supports 24/384 and will decode DSD2.8 and 5.6. Balanced and RCA outputs with volume control. A high powered headphone output is also included. Price will be $1,500 USD
The matching a102 power amplifier is rated at 50 watts/ch into 8 or 4 ohms
Following the stunning 321 Digital convertor, Wadia showed the m330 Media Server, a315 stereo amplifier and a340 monoblock amps
The m330 Media Server streams music servers like Pandora, Spotify and Rhapsody, decodes up to 24/192 and controllable from an Apple IOS or Android app. This device is a collaborative effort with Autonomics, with Wadia licensing the streaming technology and adding the company's own DAC technology; a significant improvement over the Autonomics server is a separate 30GB Solid State hard drive that houses the operating system, unlike the Autonomics. The server includes Cloud Access for file backup and synchronization with multiple systems. There is an internal 1TB hard drive to store content, as well as the ability to add external drives. Price is $6,000 USD
The a315 stereo amp and a340 monoblocks feature Wadia's proprietary class D technology. The a315 stereo amp is rated at 150 watts/ch into 8 ohms and 300 watts/ch into 4 ohms. The a340 monoblocks are rated at 400 watts into 8 ohms and 800 watts into 4 ohms. Both balanced and rca inputs are available, while the monoblocks will also have XLR and RCA outputs for easy connections in bi-amp configurations.
The a315 is $3,500 and the a340 is $8,000/pr
