”This really is the closest thing to having the best seat in the house.” ’Hi-Fi News’ – Outstanding Product.
Simple design. Remarkable performance
As part of Audio Analogue’s PureAA range, the AAdac is built to a high standard, with the focus on sound quality rather than an excess of superfluous features. That said, this is still a flexible DAC and one that will make the most of all your components.
High performance DAC
At the heart of this high performance DAC is the renowned Sabre ES9038 DAC. This premium chip converts PCM signal up to 32bit/384kHz and Native DSD up to 512. This means it works with very high quality ‘studio grade’ recordings, giving reference levels of sound quality. Discrete components and an ultra-low noise digital stage help give the most natural sound possible.
Seven digital filters
The choice of seven different digital filters lets you tailor the sound to your personal taste. From a warm, rich sound to a crisper performance, choose your style at the touch of a button.
USB DAC for superior sound from your PC or Mac
For the highest quality file playback, connect your PC or Mac via the USB-B port and enjoy the very best in digital music. Mac computers simply plug ‘n play and there’s downloadable software available for PCs.
Wide range of inputs – including XLR
As well as the USB-B input, there is a wide range of other connections – letting you upgrade your entire system. Use the two coaxial and single optical inputs for your CD/DVD/Blu-ray player, games console and TV. For the highest quality, ‘pro’ grade connection, there’s also an XLR balanced input that’s the perfect match for high-end CD players and music streamers.
Compact system potential - use directly with active speakers
Featuring a volume control, the AAdac has the potential to be used as a pre-amp. Connect directly to a power amp or active speakers and enjoy premium sound quality from a compact system.
Italian style
With its sleek metal facia and minimalist design, the AAdac reflects all that’s best about Italian design. The high quality finish extends to the remote control, which is housed in a metal case that matches the DAC’s front panel in design.
