Pentaton is for digital purists. The player for people who care about music, meticulously crafted for the ultimate listening experience.

Your Music, Your Way.

Built for the ultimate listening experience, Pentaton lets you enjoy your digital music collection just like your favorite artists intended. Listen to your full albums, front to back, without distractions or social media noise. Enjoy the moment without being let down by your streaming provider. Be in total control of your listening experience—do not let any algorithm or licensing deal decide for you ever again.

Embrace music in its original form, Pentaton will never alter your bits. This core principle is woven into it everywhere, from having no equalizer or crossfade to not drawing anything on your cover art. Take your whole collection with you or listen from your NAS at home. Point Pentaton to some folders and start listening immediately—nothing to import or copy.

High-resolution audio, wherever you go.

Pentaton has decoders for all major high-resolution lossless formats, including the most demanding 11.2 MHz DSD256 recordings. It automatically configures your external DAC to support the highest fidelity, up to 32 bit / 768 kHz — or 705.6 kHz when playing DSD256 over PCM.

Pentaton’s audio engine uses a circular buffer to make sure your gapless albums are played back seamlessly, without the slightest interruption.It also provides lossless AirPlay streaming, even when using AirPlay 2, for perfect CD quality playback.

Built for one thing, and one thing only.

• Pentaton configures AirPlay to use Apple's lossless ALAC codec for perfect CD quality playback at 16 bits and 44.1 kHz — even when using AirPlay 2.
