Description
DiGiCo SD 32-bit DAC Converter
Following in the footsteps of the “Stadius” design philosophy, the new 32bit, 8-channel output card uses the latest digital-to-analogue converters (DAC) and a newly designed fully differential analogue output stage. Class leading technology and a design team who are meticulous about perfect sound, has produced a DAC that redefines the meaning of audio performance; the Ultimate “Stadius” DAC.
Features
- Dedicated analogue, ultra-low noise linear power supplies
- Lightning quick conversion time; 104μs
- Maximized performance operational amplifiers
- As close to silent as we can get; -100dBA noise
- Dynamic punch and increased audio depth; Dynamic range of 122dBA
- Pure transparency of audio; 20-22kHz <0.0008% THD+N @0dBFS
- Class leading frequency response; 20-44.5kHz ±0.15dB
- “MUSE” acoustic series blocking capacitors
- Revolutionary “capacitor damping” removing any unwanted vibration pickup
- Fully shielded analogue stage
- Improved metal XLR design with “continuous circumferential ground contact
