TEAC has created the H01.3 Digital Streaming Micro System, designed for not only playback of one’s digital media libraries and audio streaming sources, but to simply make them sound better.

The first component of the group, the DS-H01 docking station, bypasses the lower quality D/A converters in an iPhone/iPad/iPod and instead, strips every bit of data off of the device digitally and passes it through Burr Brown Digital-to-Analog Converters. The A-H01 amplifier uses Bang & Olufsen’s ICEpower to deliver favorite digital audio media in a more crisp and powerful way. The system drives the entire signal through TEAC’s LS-H265 speakers.

Key H01.3 features include:
