Features

Connectivity Options for Traditional Audio Sources
Utilising high-quality analogue preamp circuitry, akin to the acclaimed audiolab 6000 series, coupled to line-level RCA inputs to connect analogue sources, the preamp circuitry is kept as simple as possible. Using high-quality components to maintain signal purity, with line input signals passing to a precision analogue volume stage, Omnia is an outstanding pre-amp, in its own right.

A dedicated MM phono input means a turntable can be directly connected to Omnia via a high-quality, low-noise, phono stage with precise RIAA equalisation. This phono stage is continue evolution on the award winning 6000 series engineered to make the most of the music nestling within an LPs grooves.

Networked Audio Playback
For networked audio playback, the Audiolab Omnia is equipped with an ethernet port, lending itself to a wired connection and the wider bandwidth requirements of high-resolution digital audio.

For the most convenient access to wireless music playback, Omnia oers Bluetooth connectivity with high-quality, low latency, with the Bluetooth aptX standard.

The 6000A Plays Wi-Fi networking is powered by DTS Play-Fi: an app-controlled platform enabling high-quality, whole-home wireless audio, capable of streaming hi-res music up to 24-bit/192kHz and supported by a greater range of established audio brands than any other wireless platform.

USB DAC Section & More
The USB DAC section is based upon Audiolabs long-term partner, and multi-award-winning, pedigree. The new ESS9038 Q2M SABRE 32 Reference DAC performs D/A conversion, utilising ESS Technologys 32-bit HypersStream II architecture and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator to deliver ultra-low noise and high dynamic range.

No company knows more about making the most of this technically excellent, but challenging, DAC technology than audiolab; the universally acclaimed M-DAC was one of the rst home audio components to incorporate an ESS chip back in 2011, and the company has been honing its implementation ever since.

Via the USB DAC section, the audiolab Omnia also offers full decoding of MQA (Master Quality Authenticated). MQA is an award-winning British technology that delivers the sound of the original master recording. The Omnia includes MQA decoder technology, which enables you to play back MQA audio files and streams received via the USB input at the original files full resolution and passes the signal through its DAC and preamp stages. MQA files are available via subscription to TIDALs HiFi tier (among other sources).

IPS LC Display
Firmly planting itself as a very usable piece of high-tech equipment, the audiolab Omnia makes use of a colour IPS LCD display, offering a higher clarity of colour and lower power consumption than TFT displays. Via the captivating display, the audiolab Omnia offers a simplified general user interface and a graphical integration with your music source and playback formats. It also uses a brand new protocol for a real-time VU meter display, adding a touch of hi-fi finesse to the very functional, equally good-looking, display interface.

Further to this, the audiolab Omnia is also Roon tested, thus opening up to the world of Roon. Roons fundamental goal is to provide a consistently stellar user experience. This goal doesnt stop at the software the experience extends all the way down to the audio playback hardware, regardless of manufacturer. As a Roon Tested partner, audiolab has provided equipment to Roon for testing with a variety of dierent operating systems and computers and shared information about its design and capabilities. Audiolab have a direct relationship with Roon and in many cases, the Roon support team has Audiolab's devices on hand, so you can condently choose to use audiolab hardware with Roon.

A substantial 200VA toroidal transformer, followed by 4×15,000uF reservoir capacity (60,000uF in total), helps the amp to maintain rm control of the music whilst enabling excellent dynamic range. More than just a class-leader, the Omnia is a class-beater in terms of amplier performance!
