The DAC202 is a reference quality stereo Firewire and USB (optional) D/A Converter with infrared remote control. It supports all standard sampling frequencies including DSD64 (with the USB/DSD Version). A high quality headphone amplifier is built in. The output levels can be set in coarse steps in the analog domain and in addition in the digital domain with fine resolution. Thus the DAC202 acts as a pre-amplifier as well and can directly drive a power amplifier. The ideal device for a minimalistic computer playback system.
