Introducing ONIX Waltz XM10 Ltd

First Standalone Android Player by ONIX

High-End Portable Hi-Fi Player

Price: 899 USD

Available in January 2025

The Miracle Beginning

Original ONIX XM10 was included in the High-End Miracle setup, acting as the streaming platform for the Hi-Fi stack, while being a decently sounding portable player on its own. With the new ONIX Waltz XM10 ltd, we are taking the same concept of a portable player, but upgrading it into a fully capable Hi-Fi device, one that can rival any dedicated portable Hi-Res players on the market.

ONIX Waltz stays fully compatible with the ONIX Miracle and can serve as its digital transport and streaming center.

Pushing Design Limits of Hi-Fi Players

Optimized for true portability, ONIX Waltz was thinned down to just 11.5mm, putting it closer to standard smartphones and avoiding the unpractical dimensions of bulky Hi-Fi Players. At the same time, its build was further enhanced by utilizing stainless steel construction, for impressively robust and dense feeling in hand. Combined with an electroplating finish for a deep dark and highly polished look.

Serious Audio Performance

The Audio section of ONIX Waltz takes inspiration from ONIX Mystic XP1, creating a naturally sounding player based around AKM’s flagship DAC system, AK4499EX DAC and AK4191 ΔΣ modulator. Supported by the in-house developed “Brighton” I/V conversion circuit and FPGA technology, alongside KDS Crystal Oscillators and dedicated AD8397 headphone amplifier.

While ONIX Waltz features only a 3.5mm socket, Balanced output can be achieved with the provided 5-pin 3.5mm to 4.4mm Balanced adapter.

Upgraded Android Performance

Coming with the newly upgraded system to Android 13, assuring many years of future updates and wide app compatibility. With a fully open Android system, made for easy installation of a range of Music Playback and Streaming apps, with bit-perfect output ensured by our deeply customized Android Sound Platform.
