Mechanical Stability and Craftsmanship

Z1 is housed in the highest-grade CNC aluminum alloy chassis. Robust, vibration- and dust- free. No more excessive heat. Fanless, well-structured internal design provides efficient heat dissipation to keep the CPU and entire system running cool, but with zero fan-noise and extremely low electrical noise. A high permeability EMI absorber (> 120 @1MHz) is applied to reduce the noise from internal digital circuits including DRAM, CPU, etc.

Superior Hardware System and Mainboard

Z1 is born to pursue enhanced audio performance without any compromise.

• High-performance yet low-power (6W) Intel CPU.
