Combining audiophile physical compact disc formats with modern high resolution network streaming capabilities over Ethernet and WiFi, a standalone PrecisionLink II DAC

and expansive control features, the Nº 5101 is a unique 3-in-1 solution.

Digital Audio

The Nº 5101 features outstanding digital audio capability with the Mark Levinson PrecisionLink II DAC. The latest generation ESS PRO Sabre 32-bit D/A converter with jitter

elimination circuitry and a fully balanced, discrete current-to-voltage converter form the heart of the digital audio processing stage. Five digital audio inputs are provided:

one coaxial and one optical S/PDIF, and USB for playback of high resolution PCM (up to 24 bit/192k, Network (WiFi and Ethernet) for streaming from a NAS drive which

supports FLAC, WAV, AIFF, OGG, MP3, AAC and WMA, and an SACD input which supports disc formats including SACD, CD-A, CD-R and CD-RW.

Analog Output Stage

The Nº 5101 utilizes proprietary Mark Levinson PurePath circuitry- a fully discrete, direct-coupled, dual-monaural line-level output circuit for exceptional reproduction of the

analog signal, which is delivered to the balanced XLR stereo outputs as well as the single ended RCA connectors. A linear power supply with an oversized toroidal transformer

is employed to ensure the widest bandwidth and dynamic range possible.

Control

System integration and communication ports include IP (Ethernet), RS-232, IR input, and 12V trigger input. A newly designed, aluminum IR remote is included with the Nº 5101.

In addition, drivers are available for major control systems.

Industrial Design

Robust materials, lavish finishes and bold geometry are hallmark attributes of Mark Levinson designs. The one- inch thick, bead-blasted, black-anodized, solid aluminum front panels

are machined and contoured to flow seamlessly into the sleek glass display, which itself is recessed into a bead-blasted, clear-anodized aluminum bezel.

The iconic hourglass knobs are machined with a gently curved profile softly transitioning into a rounded front, bead-blasted and clear anodized, with feet to match. With debossed

top cover vents, screen-printed logo and legends behind the glass panel, and machined aluminum buttons, no detail has been overlooked.

The Mark Levinson Nº5101 is proudly designed, engineered, and precision-crafted in the USA.
