Description

UDP900 MKII

4K UHD Flagship Blu-ray Player

 
 
Mastery in motion and sound. The UDP900MKII stands at the pinnacle of high-end playback, an uncompromising reference machine built for those who demand absolute precision in both audio and video.
 
Every subsystem is engineered with intention: audiophile-grade analog architecture, cinephile-class video processing, custom dual power supplies, and a chassis meticulously designed to suppress interference, vibration, and electrical noise.
 
It’s a purpose-built instrument where advanced engineering and deliberate design converge to deliver breathtaking fidelity. Call it a player, call it a portal. Either way, it’s a force. A place where flawless execution and unrestrained performance collide.
 
 
 
A Master Class in Video
The UDP900 MKII sets a new standard for what a flagship player can deliver. It doesn’t just render a picture, it elevates the entire visual chain.
 
A redesigned 6-layer gold-immersion PCB anchors the new platform, now strengthened with JST and Amphenol connectors for lower noise and tighter signal integrity. Internal wiring has also been upgraded with higher-grade copper conductors. The high-precision, ultra-low noise TCXO temperature-compensated crystal oscillator doubles the high precision LDO power supply processing of the UDP800.
 
The UDP upscaling engine is Magnetar's most advanced and refined. Enhanced upscaling sharpens Blu-ray, DVD, and file based 1080p or lower sources, revealing more detail missed by other players. The AI engine insures every upscaled frame is rendered with impeccable precision, preserving the integrity of the original content. It handles diverse formats with ease, eliminating any visual artifacts, blurring, or pixelation. Colours are true to life, blacks are deep, and the image remains crisp and clear, even during fast-motion scenes. 
 
More depth. More stability. More accurate. MKII is just more of everything that matters. Whether it be 480P, 4K UHD, MKV, MOV, MP4, or most anything else, the UDP 900 MKII delivers every frame, every nuance, every sound, every note. 
 
Reference-Quality Audio
With precision engineering and advanced technology, this player reproduces sound with incredible depth, richness, and accuracy, allowing you to hear every nuance of every sound, every time. The UDP900MKII elevates its audio platform with a refined ES9038PRO 7.1-channel DAC, delivering higher resolution, lower distortion, and greater dynamic precision than the previous generation. 
 
This player uniquely offers 7.1 channel analog RCA audio outputs. Its upgraded analog stage features OPA1602 op-amps, a ultra-low-phase-noise TCXO, and a carefully tuned array of ELNA, NCC, WIMA, and SILMIC II capacitors for cleaner, more accurate signal reproduction. Inside, copper-core wiring and JST/Amphenol connectors improve grounding, reduce interference, and preserve purity across the signal path, all powered by a dedicated high-power linear supply designed for low-noise stability.
 
High-resolution USB Audio support up to PCM 768 kHz and DSD512 completes the MKII upgrade, while balanced XLR and gold-plated RCA outputs deliver the final signal with unwavering fidelity. In the MKII, silence becomes part of the performance—revealing depth, space, and nuance with remarkable clarity.
 
A Universe of Formats
The UDP900MKII expands upon its predecessor with enhanced media handling and deeper format support, delivering a truly universal playback experience. Every major disc format is supported—including 4K UHD Blu-ray, multi-region Blu-ray, BD-R/RE, DVD-Video, DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, DVD-Audio, AVCHD, SACD, CD, and CD-R/RW—ensuring that your entire physical library plays with MKII-level precision and stability.
 
Digital access has been elevated as well. The upgraded USB 3.0 architecture offers improved power delivery, stronger compatibility, and support for up to 16TB external storage. Network playback through DLNA, SMB, and NFS provides effortless access to your full ecosystem of media files, including MKV, AVI, MP4, WAV, FLAC, APE, DSD, M4A, MP3, OGG, AIFF, DSF, AAC, ALAC, and more.
 
Whether your content arrives through Disc, XMOS, USB, or LAN, the MKII platform processes it with greater stability, higher precision, and smoother performance—redefining what universal media mastery feels like. The MKII doesn’t just support nearly every format. It perfects the way you experience them.
 
Built to Perform
The Magnetar engineering team understands that to achieve exceptional audio and video performance requires high quality construction and stability. The UDP900 is carved from an all-aluminum alloy body with a reinforced dual-layer chassis, creating a rigid, resonance-controlled foundation. Key internal assemblies sit inside their own metal-shielded enclosures, dramatically reducing vibration, mechanical noise, and external magnetic interference. Every structural element serves one purpose: preserving signal purity for uncompromised high-resolution audio and video.
 
Power delivery is split for maximum stability. A custom high-power switching supply drives the digital mainboard with fast transient response, while a dedicated 60W low-noise toroidal transformer—featuring a two-stage filter design, imported magnetic core, oxygen-free copper windings, metal shielding, and full epoxy damping—feeds the analog audio stage with clean, consistent current. Premium Rubycon electrolytic capacitors reinforce both power paths for tighter control and lower noise.
 
While the occasional disc misread or skip can be a rare and unfortunate nature of the beast with Blu-ray, mechanical performance of the player is elevated through its disc drive and enhanced noise-suppression system, reducing vibration and mechanical chatter for quieter, more accurate playback—even with challenging or aging discs. Additional isolated metal chambers suppress vibration and improve thermal behavior, ensuring quiet operation and unwavering fidelity across every format.
 
Weighing in at over 34 pounds, this isn’t just heavy-duty construction — it’s a purpose-built platform designed to elevate performance.
 
The legend continues.
Celebrated by reviewers, enthusiasts, and home-cinema professionals worldwide, Magnetar players continue to earn top-tier recognition for engineering excellence, build quality, and reference-level playback. The MKII series carries that legacy forward with upgraded architecture, enhanced stability, and class-leading audio and video refinement—earning its place among the most respected high-end disc players in the world.
