The Marantz SA-10 is a no-compromise reference SACD/CD player and high-performance DAC, engineered to deliver true high-resolution playback from discs and digital sources alike. Crafted in Shirakawa, Japan and built around the exclusive Marantz Musical Mastering (MMM) digital-to-analog conversion platform, the SA-10 redefines disc-based audio performance.
This player uses the proprietary SACD-M3 transport mechanism to read CD, SACD, and data discs with maximum precision. It plays back PCM and DSD files from USB and disc with stunning detail, supported by the Marantz-designed MMM-Stream and MMM-Conversion system, which upconverts all PCM to DSD and processes it via a discrete Marantz digital-to-analog solution rather than an off-the-shelf DAC chip.
Key features include:
Plays SACD, CD, CD-R/RW, DSD (up to DSD11.2), WAV, FLAC, ALAC, MP3, AAC
USB-B DAC input supporting 384kHz/32-bit PCM and DSD11.2 (DoP)
Coaxial and optical digital inputs and outputs
Fully isolated asynchronous USB DAC mode
Custom Marantz HDAM & HDAM-SA2 analog stages
Toroidal transformer, copper-plated chassis, and aluminum top cover
Balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA analog outputs
Precision SACD-M3 metal transport
Headphone output with HDAM-based buffer stage
The SA-10 is ideal for both physical media lovers and high-resolution digital audio users looking to rediscover their library with unmatched clarity and refinement. Built with premium components and tuned by the Marantz Sound Master for “The Most Musical Sound,” it stands as a true flagship source component.
