Artisanally crafted digital-to-analog converters hand-built in USA.
A unique combination of the best of 100-year-old, 40-year-old, and modern technologies. Each circuit and component are carefully selected to assure the most musically transparent presentation possible.
Understated simplicity is one of our main design criteria: less is more. We never use FPGAs, digital input processors, LCD screens, WiFi, attenuators, remotes, or any of the other features commonly used by other manufacturers that give greater versatility at the expense of noise floor.
Our ultra-purist R-2R topology has no digital input filters, noise shaping, upsampling, oversampling, or error-correction. Our discrete, class A, direct-coupled, analog output stage has no coupling capacitors or transformers to limit bandwidth or color the sound.
Independent power supplies and Belleson SPX ultralow-noise ultrahigh-dynamic regulators isolate each stage in the digital and analog circuits. Custom Lundahl chokes in our analog power supplies assure correct time and tune as well as effortless dynamics and incredible bass. Our hybrid grounding, zero-recovery SiC Schottky diodes, and advanced anti-resonance typologies, lower noise floor to the unimaginable.
It is our ultra-purist approach which gives our DACs the organic character for which they are so famous. Tone and timbre that rivals the best of analog. Effortless micro-dynamics and incredible micro-details reveal previously unheard harmonics and spatial cues. A sense of breath and flesh that bring your music to life.
