EMM Labs DAC2x V2 DAC

The EMM Labs DA2 V2 DAC incorporates several advanced technologies and design features that contribute to its high-end performance:Upgraded DAC and Analog Systems: The DA2 V2 includes significant hardware and firmware changes from its predecessor. All major hardware systems in the DA2 have been replaced, including EMM’s discrete 16xDSD DACs and a new analog output stage. These upgrades enhance the DA2's transparency, soundstage depth, and dynamics. Additionally, the new analog stage incorporates a high/low gain system, which is switchable in software, allowing users to choose an output level that fits their system better​​.Proprietary DAC Technology: At the heart of the DA2 are the Meitner-designed and manufactured MDAC2 DACs, specifically created for this model. These are discrete, single-bit designs that run at an extremely high speed—16 times that of single-rate DSD (2.8224MHz), or DSD1024. This high sample rate is a first for consumer converters and contributes to the DA2's excepti
