Michi Q5 Transport DAC: A new sound experience for audiophiles

The Michi Q5 Transport DAC takes the music experience to a new level. This high-performance CD player combines advanced technology, exceptional craftsmanship and unparalleled sound quality. Designed for discerning music lovers, the Michi Q5 not only offers outstanding audio performance, but also an elegant design that fits into any high-end audio system.

High-quality design for precise playback

The design of the Michi Q5 is well thought out and engineered for the highest precision. The CD mechanism, the heart of every CD player, is designed as a top-loading system and is made of high-quality carbon and CNC-machined aluminum. These materials not only provide a sleek, modern look, but also ensure durability and reliability. The mechanism is mounted on a floating suspension to minimize unwanted vibrations and isolate the motor from the sensitive electronic circuitry. This reduces physical interference and ensures that your CDs are played with the highest accuracy.

The power of the ESS-ES9028PRO D/A converter

The heart of the Michi Q5 is the ESS-ES9028PRO D/A converter, an 8-channel chip that is responsible for the all-important digital-to-analog conversion. This converter divides its channels so that four channels are reserved for the left and right audio signal paths. The result is an incredibly precise and detailed reproduction that reveals even the finest nuances of the music. The D/A converter operates with an extremely low noise level, which ensures clean and clear sound reproduction.

The fully symmetrical circuitry of the Michi Q5 further minimizes distortion and contributes significantly to flawless playback. This means that the CD sound is reproduced as authentically and faithfully as possible. In addition, the Q5 can be used as a pure CD drive via coaxial and optical Toslink connections. This means that you can also use the Michi Q5's CD transport with external D/A converters and integrate it seamlessly into existing audio setups.

Perfect power supply thanks to toroidal transformers

Another outstanding feature of the Michi Q5 is its internal power supply. Two custom-made toroidal transformers isolate the digital and analog power supplies from each other, which significantly reduces unwanted noise and electrical interference. This separation ensures that the power supply to both the digital and analog components is as interference-free as possible, which in turn helps to improve the overall sound quality.

Versatile connection options of the MICHI Q5

The Michi Q5 is not just a CD player, but offers a variety of additional audio inputs. This includes a 32-bit/384 kHz PC USB input that supports MQA and DSD-4X formats. These high-resolution formats ensure that digital music files can also be played in the highest quality. In addition, 24-bit/192 kHz coaxial and optical inputs are available, making the Q5 compatible with almost all modern digital audio sources. These versatile connections make the Michi Q5 a real all-rounder in your audio system.

User-friendly design and controls

The front panel of the Michi Q5 is designed to offer maximum user-friendliness. The full-color TFT display not only shows the CD album cover but also other information about the music being played, adding an appealing visual component to the listening experience. The clarity and clarity of the display are typical of the high-quality workmanship that characterizes Michi products.

In addition, the Michi Q5 is equipped with a new, bidirectional remote control that allows you to control it easily and conveniently. The buttons on the remote control are backlit in white, which guarantees effortless operation even in poor lighting conditions. The RS232 and Ethernet connections also make it easy to integrate the Q5 into automation systems, which further simplifies the management of your audio system.

For discerning audiophiles

The Michi Q5 Transport DAC is aimed at audiophiles who do not want to compromise on sound quality or design. Its robust workmanship, high-quality materials and technical sophistication make it an indispensable element in any high-end audio system. Whether as a pure CD player or as a versatile DAC for digital audio sources - the Michi Q5 always delivers outstanding performance.
