Overview

NEO α(Alpha) Signature Edition is ZIDOO’s flagship product in 2022, converging years of technologies and bringing ultimate refreshing audiovisual experiences for enthusiasts. 5-inch OLED touch screen, 4G DDR4 RAM and 32G eMMC storage, 512G internal SSD ESS9038 Pro DAC, low noise and dual power supply (linear power supply and digital power supply). Dual HDMI audio video separation, supporting Native DSD 5.1 (HDMI audio/DSD port) NEO α (Alpha) is an all-in-one solution for HiFi player, DSD multichannel digital player

Powerful processor and large storage capacity

The 64-bit A55 hexa-core RTD1619DR processor and 64-bit bandwidth with greater processing capacity have provided stable and efficient computing for the system. The 4G DDR4 RAM and 32GB eMMC storage have largely met the demand for massive application installation

512G internal SSD

NEO α(Alpha) is equipped with a 512G enterprise-grade SSD for local music playback. High-quality digital music files can be easily stored, and data reading is stable and fast. The heating and noise problem of the traditional mechanical hard drive can be avoided

ESS9038Pro DAC

The ESS9038 Pro DAC chip is the core component of NEO α (Alpha) audio decoding. -122 dB THD+N and 140 dB dynamic range are industry benchmarks. Supports up to DSD512 and PCM768 @ 32bit, the performance and sound quality can meet the demand of audiophiles

XMOS audio processor

The Octa-core XMOS X216 audio processor can provide excellent digital audio processing with high-definition decoding, low latency, low jitter, and great flexibility. It also supports asynchronous transmission, PCM 768KHz decoding, DSD 512, and 8x MQA

Two high-precision clocks

There are 2 ultra-low noise femtosecond high-precision clocks for the audio decoding circuit (45.1584 MHz and 49.152 MHz), which correspond to a multiplied sampling of 44.1 kHz and 48 KHz. Jitter has been effectively suppressed. It ensures high-precision digital/analog conversion, provides ultra-high integrity and resolution for analog audio output, and reproduces the real sound details of the music studio

Headphone amp output

The 6.35 headphone jack offers great convenience for headphone enthusiasts. The amplification circuit adopts low-ripple power supply, multi-level signal buffering, staged voltage and current amplification processing, so that it has low noise, high current, and high thrust. The adjustment of two gain modes is to adapt to different headphones in an impedance range of 16 to 300 Ω

4K UHD resolution technology

NEO α (Alpha) video decoding is based on Linux and supports almost all video decoding, including 4K Dolby Vision and HDR10+. Output up to 3840 x 2160 60Hz, HDR (Dolby Vision, HDR10+, HDR10, HLG), 12bit and wide color gamut BT.2020

User reviews

Olivier

Excellent player, well finished, with a polished and flattering presentation, and excellent ergonomics. My only reservations: the limitations of the RealTek chip on the video side, which is not free of bugs (admittedly discreet, but some of which may frustrate image purists)... and DSD audio integration that is still a bit "fragile" and not as ergonomic as on Eversolo products.

Excellent lecteur, bien finit, à la présentation soignée et flateuse, et avec une excellente ergonomie. Mes seules réserves : Les limitations de la puce RealTek sur la partie vidéo, qui n'est pas exempt de bug (discrets certes, mais dont certains pourront contrarier les puristes de l'image)... et une intégration audio du DSD encore un peu "fragile" et pas aussi ergonomique que sur les produits Eversolo.
