Designer’s note

“There are many DACs (Digital to Analogue

Converters) on the market so it would be easy to select the best one from a specification sheet. To ensure the best possible sound we prefer to conduct critical listening tests and comprehensive testing. This is the only way we can be sure the components we select deliver the high quality sound we require.”
