This is a really special DAC for those who appreciate a more natural, analogue-style sound. It follows Audio Note’s philosophy — no oversampling, no jitter reduction, no noise shaping, no re-clocking. Everything is kept simple and pure, with filtering handled in the analogue domain for better phase coherence and musical flow.

It uses the highly regarded 18-bit Analogue Devices AD1865N chip, known for its smooth, musical presentation.

Supports 44.1 / 48 / 96kHz input, making it flexible for different digital sources.

Great piece if you’re chasing a more organic and engaging listening experience.
