You are about to experience music as
never before with the Nagra DAC
converter.
The DAC is designed and hand–built
entirely in Switzerland by Nagra
engineers, using components of the
highest quality from around the world.
♦ It is basically a 2.0 channels 24-bit,
192 kHz up-sampled Digital-to-Analog
converter and processor for High-End
purists.
♦ The power supply of the DAC is
designed to deliver quiet and stable
performance suitable for the highest
resolution audio system. It is
completely isolated from AC line
noises.
♦ The DAC accepts up to 5 digital
and 1 analog line–level input sources,
such as tuners, CD and DVD players
and video tape recorders. The 5 digital
inputs are devided in 1 AES input, 3
SPDIF inputs and 1 optical input. The
analog input source can be selected as
an asymmetrical or symmetrical input.
♦ The outputs of the DAC are
electronically balanced for the highest
audio performance. The outputs can be
selected as a symmetrical (XLR) or
asymmetrical (RCA – CINCH) output.
Optional by pair, the outputs can be
delivered as floating (transformer)
outputs.
♦ A special filtering technology,
called Adaptative Time Filtering allows
the input and output clocks to be
completely independent, thus
eliminating jitter. For this purpose, the
two-channel module comes with a
DSP. These output DA converters
allow an over-sampling process to
prevent the output filtering from
aliasing artifacts
♦ A remote control for selecting the
different input sources, adjusting
balance and output levels is included.
