ARTERA SOLUS

Artera Solus is a CD transport, DAC, pre-amplifier, and power amplifier in a single compact chassis. Featuring 2 x 75W into 8Ω of Class AB grunt, inbuilt Bluetooth connectivity, 2 x Optical, 2 x RCA, and 1 x USB (B) inputs, and a CD transport, Solus is a just add speakers music solution.

DIGITAL'S ORIGINAL FAN FAVE

Diehard fans of the compact disc receive the red-carpet treatment thanks to Artera’s slot-loading mechanism and read-ahead buffering. Combined with an asynchronous DAC section offering four digital filter options, you can tailor Artera to your listening preference.

A WORLD OF COLOUR

Hearing music through a high quality 32-bit DAC is like seeing colour for the first time. And with Artera’s ESS Sabre 32 DAC, you’ll experience a rich pallet of breath-taking sounds you didn’t know existed.

THE EPITOME OF STYLE

Artera’s refined industrial aesthetic is the very embodiment of superior audiophile craftsmanship. CNC routed heat sinks are discretely concealed behind a textured aluminium fascia and capped by a thick glass top. The combination is nothing short stunning, making Artera the epitome of style.
