T+A Elektroakustik MP 3100 G3 HV Multi Source SACD Player / DAC

In developing the MP 3100 HV G3, T+A has not only optimized the playback quality of each individual source, but also expanded the range of usable sources with cutting-edge protocols. From T+A's third-generation Audiophile Streaming Architecture and unique Path Separation Technology that enables separate PCM and DSD data processing, to a custom-engineered SACD drive, the MP 3100 HV G3 offers extreme sound quality, convenience, and source versatility.

A wide array of additional sources, including internet radio, local network sources via LAN and WLAN, USB master mode, and an outstanding FM, FM-HD, and DAB+ tuner, as well as Bluetooth connectivity and streaming services for seamless transmission from mobile devices, make the MP 3100 HV G3 a source of extraordinary versatility.

The MP 3100 HV G3 is capable of processing DSD files up to DSD 512, not only through the USB input of the Digital Connecting Board but also directly through the streaming client, without any detrimental conversions, before delivering it to the True 1-Bit DAC for analog conversion.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail at T+A headquarters in Herford, Germany, and assembled by hand from solid aluminum, the MP 3100 HV G3 is true German engineering at its best.

Audiophile Streaming Architecture

T+A's Audiophile Streaming Architecture was designed for maximum sonics while supporting diverse sources. HV series streamers keep the noise and jitter low while offering streaming services such as Qobuz and Tidal, playing local network files, and even streaming from mobile devices through Connect or AirPlay services in audiophile quality.

Each streaming-capable HV device also offers the ability to play uncompressed FLAC files via aptX HD Bluetooth technology. A true milestone in T+A’s history is the ability to natively stream DSD files directly from the network for the first time. To ensure the highest possible playback quality, this stream is delivered to the T+A True 1-Bit DAC, which processes DSD files in their native bitstream without any quality loss.

Path Separation Technology

T+A converter architecture is unique because it breaks away from the conventional approach to digital-to-analog conversion: DSD signals are typically processed by being converted to PCM before playback in the PCM mode.

This conversion was not okay with T+A which is why it developed the T+A True 1-Bit Converter. It processes DSD files natively without any harmful conversions, ensuring they are reproduced in their purest form via a true 1-bit stream. In contrast, PCM signals are processed through the equally proprietary T+A Quadruple Converter, which employs a dual-symmetrical design with eight 32-bit Burr-Brown converters. This configuration significantly compensates for any tonal non-linearities, reducing the already minimal noise by an additional 6 dB.

The result is astonishing dynamic range and linearity, coupled with an equally impressive absence of distortion. The set of bespoke T+A Bezier filters within the Quadruple Converter allow for the sound to be tailored to individual preferences or the recording. This flexibility ensures that listeners experience music exactly as they desire, without compromising the core values of T+A’s exceptional audio fidelity.
