T+A MP 1000 E Multi-Source CD Player, Network Streamer & DAC

Premium German-engineered multi-source player combining precision CD playback, Roon Ready network streaming, a 32-bit/384kHz DAC, native DSD256 support, and balanced XLR outputs.

The T+A MP 1000 E brings together a high-performance CD player, network music streamer, digital-to-analog converter, and radio tuner in one sophisticated E-Series component. Designed for high-end stereo systems, it provides access to physical music collections, high-resolution digital files, streaming services, and external digital sources.

At its heart is a double-mono differential DAC using 32-bit Burr-Brown converters, supported by precision clock resynchronization and wide-bandwidth analog output circuitry.

With PCM playback up to 32-bit/384kHz and native DSD256 through USB, the MP 1000 E serves as a versatile digital centerpiece for premium two-channel systems.

High-Performance CD Playback

The MP 1000 E incorporates a dedicated high-end CD mechanism engineered for accurate digital audio reproduction.

Unlike a computer-based disc drive, its transport and digital processing architecture are optimized specifically for music playback.

Supported disc formats include CD-DA, CD-R, CD-RW, and CD Text.

The CD section provides a frequency response of 2Hz–20kHz, with a specified dynamic range of 100dB.

32-Bit Burr-Brown DAC

The MP 1000 E features a double-mono differential digital-to-analog converter using premium 32-bit Burr-Brown technology.

Its symmetrical conversion architecture is designed to maintain channel separation, minimize distortion, and preserve musical detail.

Two selectable oversampling filter characteristics allow listeners to tailor digital playback to their preferences.

A third-order phase-linear Bessel analog filter and wide-bandwidth output stage provide frequency response extending to 100kHz with compatible PCM sources.

Native DSD256 and High-Resolution USB Audio

The asynchronous USB DAC input supports high-resolution computer audio playback, including:

• PCM up to 32-bit/384kHz

• Native DSD64

• Native DSD128

• Native DSD256

The dedicated USB Audio Class 2 interface enables compatible computers and playback software to use the MP 1000 E as an external reference DAC.

Roon Ready Network Streaming

The integrated streaming client provides access to network music libraries, internet radio, and supported streaming services.

Features include:

• Roon Ready

• TIDAL

• Qobuz

• Deezer

• UPnP network music playback

• Internet radio through airable

• USB music storage playback

The network streaming section supports PCM audio up to 24-bit/192kHz.

Compatible file formats include FLAC, WAV, AIFF, ALAC, AAC, MP3, and OGG Vorbis.

Control is available through the T+A MusicNavigator app for iOS and Android.

Precision Clock Resynchronization

The MP 1000 E incorporates sophisticated clock resynchronization circuitry designed to minimize jitter introduced by external digital sources.

This system stabilizes the timing of incoming digital signals before conversion, supporting accurate transient reproduction and precise stereo imaging.

The architecture benefits both the internal CD and streaming sections and compatible external digital sources.

Extensive Digital Connectivity

The MP 1000 E functions as a high-performance DAC for additional digital audio components.

Its connections include:

• 3 × Coaxial S/PDIF digital inputs

• 2 × Optical Toslink digital inputs

• 1 × Asynchronous USB-B DAC input

• 2 × USB ports for external storage

• 1 × Coaxial S/PDIF digital output

• Ethernet and Wi-Fi networking

Coaxial inputs support PCM up to 192kHz, while optical inputs support PCM up to 96kHz.

Balanced XLR and RCA Outputs

The MP 1000 E incorporates a high-bandwidth analog output stage with both balanced and unbalanced connections.

• Balanced XLR: 5.0V RMS

• Unbalanced RCA: 2.5V RMS

• Output impedance: 50 ohms

A front-panel 6.3mm headphone connection supports compatible headphones with impedances above 32 ohms.

The optional VVM preamplifier module adds variable analog output control, allowing the MP 1000 E to connect directly to compatible active loudspeakers or power amplifiers.

FM, DAB+ and Bluetooth

In addition to CD and network playback, the MP 1000 E incorporates a digital radio tuner supporting FM, FM-HD, DAB, and DAB+ broadcasts where available.

Bluetooth audio reception with aptX provides convenient wireless playback from compatible smartphones and tablets.

The integrated tuner and Bluetooth functionality make the MP 1000 E suitable for both dedicated music listening and everyday entertainment.

German E-Series Construction

The MP 1000 E features T+A's substantial E-Series aluminum enclosure, designed to provide mechanical stability and electrical shielding.

Its understated design integrates naturally with the T+A PA 1000 E and other premium amplifiers.

The supplied SRC 1 remote can control compatible T+A E-Series components through the E-2 Link system connection.

Four chassis and side-panel combinations are available.
