Dual ESS Technology 32-bit audio DAC ESS9028Q2M independently decode left and right channels improve channel separation and reducing overall noise. The Vishay professional film MELF resistors provide excellent sound quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePower Circuit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AC hum is kept to a minimum by using a low noise power supply with anti-vibration treatment. The rest of the onboard power circuit is designed to minimise noise as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNative MQA Decoding\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DAC-9X includes MQA technology, which enables you to playback MQA audio files and streams, delivering the sound of the original master recording. The front panel LED glows green or blue to indicate that the unit is decoding and playing an MQA stream or file, and denotes provenance to ensure that the sound is identical to that of the source material. It glows blue to indicate it is playing an MQA Studio file, which has either been approved in the studio by the artist\/producer or has been verified by the copyright owner. The DAC-9X LED glows magenta to indicate that the unit is rendering an MQA stream or file. This delivers the final unfold of the MQA file. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOther notable features:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNuPrime SRC IC chip (co-developed with IC vendor) provides DSP processing where Input signals are up-sampled to megahertz before down converted to the targeted sampling rate with ultra-low jitter and distortion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtension port for Bluetooth receiver and WiFi audio streamer (optional).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull microprocessor control with memory retention.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports DSD native playback by ASIO2.1 and DoP method.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltra- low-noise JFETs in the input stage for the lowest possible noise floor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndividually adjustable volume on each input for precise level matching of sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAsynchronous transfer mode.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVery low power consumption on Standby Mode.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"NuPrime","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56215695131010,"sku":null,"price":1199.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/6652\/0962\/files\/DAC-9X_9-768x402.jpg?v=1768428322","url":"https:\/\/premiumhomeaudio.co.uk\/products\/nuprime-dac-9x","provider":"Premium Home Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
