About the No. 390S

The Mark Levinson No 390S CD Processor is a premium digital audio component designed for audiophiles seeking exceptional sound quality and system control. It features a fully balanced design in both analog and digital domains, utilizing dual differential 24-bit DACs and advanced jitter reduction technology to preserve precise timing of digital audio signals. The unit includes volume and balance controls with a digitally controlled analog volume control allowing direct connection to power amplifiers. It supports multiple digital inputs (AES/EBU, S/PDIF) and outputs, and is built on a four-layer Arlon 25N circuit board for superior dielectric properties. The No 390S is housed in a robust black-anodized aluminum chassis and weighs 50 lbs. It is capable of upsampling input signals to 352.8kHz or 384kHz at 24-bit resolution and includes High Definition Compatible Digital (HDCD) decoding. The player combines the transport mechanism of the No.37 CD Transport with the DAC and output stages of the No.360S processor, delivering remarkable sonic performance and practical system control.
