The UDP900 is Magnetar's flagship universal disc player and one of the most heavily-built UHD decks on the market — 31.7 kg of chassis, dual ESS DAC stages and a true universal transport that handles UHD Blu-ray, SACD, DVD-Audio and CD. A TWIN HDMI architecture splits Main A/V from an Audio Only output; both run at HDMI 2.0 bandwidth (no FRL / 4K@120 Hz). Reference-grade analog audio appears on dedicated 2-channel balanced XLR + RCA outputs PLUS a full 7.1-channel RCA bank, and a USB Type-B input lets the player double as an external USB DAC. Networking is Gigabit Ethernet, and an IEC C14 mains inlet with a rear rocker switch feeds the chassis.
Reference universal 4K UHD/SACD player with twin HDMI 2.0, balanced XLR + 7.1ch RCA, USB DAC input, Gigabit LAN, IEC C14.
