Mechanical Stability and Craftmanship

Z1 is housed in the highest-grade CNC aluminum alloy chassis. Robust, vibration- and dust- free. No more excessive heat. Fanless, well-structured internal design provides efficient heat dissipation to keep the CPU and entire system running cool, but with zero fan-noise and extremely low electrical noise. A high permeability EMI absorber (> 120 @1MHz) is applied to reduce the noise from internal digital circuits including DRAM, CPU, etc.

Optimised OS, VitOS

A well-structured, simple and elegant software design. Capable of running multiple music applications concurrently, with optimised audio output priority, low latency, high stability, and accelerated high-speed network transmission. VitOS makes Z1 a future-proof product –continuous software upgrade is available. The VitOS system update process will be protected by dual-firmware design, giving a redundant copy to prevent system failure due to unexpected power outage.
