Question: What are the key features of the AT-DAC100 Digital-to-Analog Converter?

Answer: The increased popularity of high-resolution digital sound sources has resulted in a growing need for high-quality sound equipment for headphone listeners. To meet this need, we offer the AT-DAC100 Digital-to-Analog Converter. Although ideal for use with its companion AT-BHA100 Balanced Headphone Amplifier, the converter may also be used separately with other headphone amplifiers. This compact desktop unit is compatible with Direct Stream Digital (DSD) and other high-definition formats to reproduce every detail of the original recording. Take your hi-fi or desktop audio system to the next level with the Audio-Technica AT-DAC100 Digital-to-Analog Converter.
