    Marantz has been designing and making amplifiers for more than 65 years, and for 40 of those years the products have reflected expertise of Ken Ishiwata. To mark his four decades with the company, the SA-KI Ruby Super Audio CD (SACD) player has been developed and tuned by a highly experienced engineering team led by KI himself. And it arrives bearing Ken Ishiwata s signature and a special Ruby motif. Features the same disc mechanisms that play SACDs, CDs and compilations on CD-ROM or DVD-ROM. The SA-KI Ruby includes an asynchronous USB input that handles formats up to PCM / DXD 384kHz/32bit and DSD11.2MHz.
