Product Information
Combining a premium quality pre-amp, DAC and headphone amp in one, elegant device, the Teac UD-507 is the beating heart of a compact hi-fi system.
The heart of your system
Featuring a digital/analogue pre-amp, powerful headphone amp and DAC, the Teac UD-507 acts as the hub of your entire system. Packed with Teac’s sophisticated engineering, you’re assured precise, lifelike sound quality with all music sources. As part of the Reference 500 system it’s also the perfect starting point for building a premium quality system that’s compact in size yet big on ability.
Discrete DAC with upsampling
Teac’s TRDD 5 DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor) uses discrete components for the most precise sound possible. It’s compatible with Hi-Res music files up to 32 bit/384kHz and 22.5MHz DSD and can also upscale signals, enhancing the quality of any digital signals. With coaxial, optical and USB (Type B rear, Type C front) inputs, you can upgrade the sound from your CD/DVD/Blu-ray player, TV, PC, smartphone and more – all that’s needed is for the music source to have a digital output.
Premium Bluetooth streaming
If you’d prefer to connect wirelessly, the UD-507 is equally impressive. Featuring multi-point Bluetooth connectivity, you can connect various devices, such as your smartphone and a Bluetooth equipped turntable. Compatible with a range of premium formats, including LDAC, LHDC and Qualcomm aptX HD, you’re guaranteed sparkling sound quality from all compatible music sources.
Balanced headphone amp
Another standout feature from the UD-507’s high specification is the headphone amp. The balanced design ensures an ultra-quiet background, letting you hear every nuance of musical detail. The powerful output suits all types of headphones, including high-impedance designs that regular headphone outlets can struggle with. For maximum headphone compatibility there’s a trio of outputs, including balanced XLR 4-pin and 4.4mm as well as single-ended 6.3mm.
Analogue pre-amp
More than just a digital DAC hub and headphone amp, the Teac UD-507 also features RCA and XLR analogue inputs. Perfect for connecting a phono pre-amp, high-end CD player or other music source, these inputs allow you to use this Teac as a complete pre-amp. Simply connect to a power amp (ideally to the AP-507) or active speakers, via RCA phono or XLR balanced outputs and your system’s complete.
Fully-balanced circuits for outstanding sound quality
Fully-balanced at every stage, the high quality circuitry resists distortion to give the cleanest and most accurate sound quality possible. The dual mono construction separates the left and right channels for much of the signal path, further enhancing the soundstage and musical detail.
Individual toroidal power transformers
For the most stable power supply and smooth dynamics, Teac have specified high-capacity, toroidal power transformers. For high precision, low distortion sound, Teac fits separate power supplies for the analogue and digital sections, avoiding interference between the two.
Build a premium Reference 500 mini separates system
The Teac UD-507 is just part of the Reference 500 series, letting you create a high-performance, effortlessly stylish system. For a system that’s curated to your exacting needs, simply add CD and/or Network Transport music sources, and combine with an AP-507 power amp for powerful listening ‘out loud’. Whichever system you choose, you can be assured of seamless sound quality and aesthetic elegance.
Compact elegance
When it comes to style, the UD-507 looks every bit as impressive as it sounds. From the precision knobs and switches to the sleek aluminium casing with robust metal side cheeks, every element speaks of understated quality.
Bring together all your music sources, while optimising the sound quality, with the Teac UD-507.
