Revolutionary ROSE CIM™ architecture for crystal-clear sound

One of the key reasons for RD160’s impressive sound quality is the ROSE CIM™ architecture, which strictly separates the digital and analog stages. By keeping these sections isolated, crosstalk and electromagnetic interference are minimized, so the signal remains untouched by noise. With AK4191 and AK4499EX DAC modules, a level of precision is achieved where even the smallest nuances in the recording stand out clearly. The result is a perfect balance between technical accuracy and organic musicality, conveying every detail with warmth and presence.

Balanced analog output for depth and realism

RD160’s analog output stage is built in a balanced dual-channel design that carefully separates the left and right channels. This construction eliminates channel noise, creates a large, three-dimensional soundstage, and delivers dynamics that move effortlessly from the most delicate tone to the most powerful outbursts. Every recording is presented with convincing depth and realism, bringing you closer to the original recording session.

Triple linear power supply with ultra-low noise

At the heart of RD160’s compelling performance is its specially developed triple linear power supply. This design dedicates separate power to both the digital input section and each of the two analog output channels. By isolating the power delivery, interference and the digital "noise floor" are reduced, resulting in sound reproduction that appears clean, dynamic, and uninterrupted in its musical flow.

ROSE NRA™ filter for even frequency response

RD160 is equipped with the ROSE NRA™ filter, which ensures an even frequency response – even in the low-frequency range. This advanced filtering technology reproduces your music with full tonality and precision, whether you are listening to high-resolution files or classical recordings. Everything, from the fine nuances of the treble to the rich foundation of the bass, is preserved with impressive consistency and control.

Precise visual feedback and intuitive operation

RD160’s hidden front display combines understated elegance with ease of use. When activated, it presents a visual overview of sound curves, volume, and other important information, creating a direct connection to the sound you hear. The tactile, immediate response to every setting creates an analog sense of control, where the machine merges with the user in direct and immersive operation.

HiFi Rose RD160 is designed to unite technical perfection with musical soul. From the isolated DAC architecture to the precise analog reproduction, RD160 sets new standards for how close you can get to the original listening experience.
