Who doesn’t love a bit of high-end hi-fi? Montreal-based Simaudio is trying to tempt us to part with a wedge of cash in return for its new Moon 371, a new network player and 100W integrated amplifier designed to deliver high-quality sound with an elegant style.

This new model brings together the capabilities of an amplifier, preamplifier, DAC, network player and phono stage for attaching an old-school turntable. It’s all contained in one hand-crafted enclosure. It’s the entry point to Moon’s Compass Collection, a range of audio separates designed to set a fresh benchmark for modern audio systems.

Refined Connectivity

Equipped with Moon’s MiND 2 streaming platform, the Moon 371 makes it easy to access streaming services like Tidal, Qobuz, Deezer, and Spotify. It’s fully compatible with Apple AirPlay, is Roon Ready and supports Qobuz Connect, Spotify Connect and Tidal Connect. There’s also an option for connecting using Bluetooth.

The Moon 317 has a 17cm color display for showing settings, album art and track details.

The Moon 371 includes an advanced phono stage for turntable with both MM and MC cartridges. Drawing on the legacy of Moon’s award-winning phono stages, like the 810LP, the new 371 is designed to preserve the integrity and detail of vinyl recordings by reproducing them with maximum accuracy.

Drawn from Moon’s flagship North Collection, the proprietary Moon Hybrid Power Supply and Moon Distortion Cancelling Amplifier deliver audiophile performance. Moon says the MHPS provides ultra-stable power to the circuitry, while the MDCA eliminates distortion and improves linearity for cleaner, more dynamic and accurate sound.

Easy To Use

The 17cm color display on the Moon 317 shows settings, album art and track details. The unit also ships with the Moon CRM-4 metal remote, designed specifically for the Compass Collection to make it easy to control music from the comfort of an armchair. The Moon 371 is designed and built by hand in Canada with premium materials. Each unit undergoes rigorous quality control and is backed by Moon’s 10-year warranty.
