Each product evolved from our award winning component series and each was designed, engineered and manufactured, without compromise, by TEAC Esoteric Company of Japan. There is a growing population of audio video enthusiasts who have established their residency in city apartments and condominiums, town homes and other types of multi-dwelling units. In general, these potential customers are very particular about how they utilize their living space and what return on investment they can achieve on the products that they purchase and maintain. In most cases these consumers are “space limited.” Elegance series products have been introduced to address these markets and demographics. High quality design, space saving implementation and exceptionally high levels of performance are the basis for these new product designs. Now the audio video enthusiast can enjoy the quality associated with larger “box type,” Esoteric components, often costing thousands of dollars more (and often taking up to two or three times more space). Simple operational controls and a comfortable size dimension transform the performance of high end audio video into a simple and new approach, appropriate for the target demographic. We invite you to enjoy Esoteric’s new state of the art high-end system components in your living room, your bedroom, your office or your study. The placement options are endless and the performance is exceptional! High quality audio video software deserves high-end Esoteric product solutions: New source players, models SZ-1 and UZ-1, are two channel and multi-channel playback devices, both equipped with stereo RCA terminals for high quality output of 2 channel signals.

These new models also feature additional iLink (1394/Firewire), terminal for output of multi-channel SACD audio information to an i.LINK equipped amplification device.
