Aavik U-588 All-In-One Integrated Amplifier/DAC/Streamer
Frequently Bought Together
Product Overview & Specifications
The Aavik U-588 is the flagship all-in-one integrated amplifier from Audio Group Denmark’s Unity U-x88 series. Drawing heavy design inspiration from Aavik’s reference 880-series flagship components, the U-588 unifies a high-resolution network streamer, a DAC, a precision analog line-stage preamplifier, and a powerful stereo power amplifier into a single, low-resonance chassis engineered for zero hysteresis and low inductance.
The power amplifier stage delivers 2 x 300 Watts into 8 Ohms (2 x 600 Watts into 4 Ohms) using Pascal Class D technology driven by Aavik’s Resonant Mode Power Supply. The digital section handles up to PCM 32-bit/384kHz, native DSD128, and full MQA decoding via USB, BNC, TOSLINK, and network streaming inputs. Backed by Audio Group Denmark’s extensive active noise-reduction suite—comprising 108 active Tesla coils, 216 active square PCB Tesla coils, 8 Anti-Aerial Resonance Coils, and 9 analog dither circuits—the U-588 establishes an exceptionally low noise floor for uncompromised, lifelike musical reproduction.
KEY FEATURES & PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGIES
- Flagship All-in-One Unity Architecture: Combines a high-definition network streamer, advanced DAC, line-level preamplifier, and 300W/ch power amplifier within a single chassis.
- High-Power Class D Output Stage: Delivers 2 x 300 Watts RMS into 8 Ohms and 2 x 600 Watts RMS into 4 Ohms with massive current reserves for demanding speakers.
- Comprehensive Digital & High-Res File Support: Features USB UAC 2.0 (PCM 32-bit/384kHz, DSD64/DSD128, MQA), BNC S/PDIF, and Optical TOSLINK digital inputs.
- Ansuz Active Noise Reduction Architecture: Outfitted with 108 active Tesla coils and 216 active square PCB Tesla coils to eliminate power line spikes and voltage noise.
- 8 Anti-Aerial Resonance Coils: Specialized Tesla coils designed to neutralize airborne radio frequency (RF) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) inside the enclosure.
- 9 Active Analog Dither Circuits: Radar-derived anti-phase dither frequency technology that lowers the noise floor to expose subtle ambient details and micro-dynamics.
- Resonant Mode Power Supply & Pre-Out: Resonant power supply provides clean sine-wave power, complemented by a 7.5V RMS max RCA pre-output stage for flexible system integration.
