QA-9 Pro
The QA-9 Pro Analog-to-Digital converter is Ayre Acoustics best kept secret, and our gift to the world of recording.
Designed around a fully discrete, fully balanced, zero-feedback analog circuit, with our signature variable gain staging, the QA-9 Pro will unlock the soundstage, fidelity and tonal balance in your recordings that you have heard in your head for years.
With the Arda AT1201 at the heart of the digital conversion process, you will become immersed in the music like never before. Astonishing dynamic range, and time, phase, and frequency accuracy, make the QA-9 Pro the gold standard for recording, mastering, archiving or product development.
Up to 24 bit /192 kHz digital output.
Variable gain circuitry for input level control.
Optional word clock / DSD output board (Pro version)
Separate left and right recording level meters.
Zero-feedback, fully-balanced discrete circuitry.
Equilock circuitry for active gain devices.
