AUDIO RESEARCH DAC 9. Reference DAC with hybrid technology (tube + solid state)
A design that reflects the studied updating of the unmistakable "look" of the realizations of the brand and a construction of the highest level constitute the antechamber of the digital audio processor DAC9, a product designed for lovers of music and sound with Capitalize on your favorite digital recordings in true high definition. As it corresponds to a product of its category, the DAC9 stands out firstly for its ability to decode the most advanced high resolution digital audio formats of the moment, namely PCM with sampling frequency up to 384 kHz (only via USB, up to 192 KHz with the rest) and DSD (via USB), in this case versions DSD64 and DSD128 of the same. It has a total of five digital shots in the most used formats, namely USB, unbalanced coaxial, balanced coaxial and optical EIAJ-TosLink, which allows the user to connect to the DAC9 practically any digital player available in the market. But the true magic of the first digital component of the Foundation Series of Audio Research is perceived as we enter the intimacies of its circuitry, which, like many designs of the US firm, is based on a sophisticated hybrid architecture that combines the best Of analog electronics with the latest in digital technology. Thus, at the heart of the analog circuitry of the DAC9 we find a pair of 6H30 double triodes which, in combination with the dual differential topology - which allows a balanced digital signal - of its D / A conversion counterpart, makes the sound End has an extension in the frequency response, a dynamic range, an extraordinary level of detail and spatial definition.
