TUBE DAC

PROJECT: Design, Simulation & Manufacturing

CATEGORY: Audio

THE CHALLENGE

With the advancements of Recording technologies, its now common to record and produce high resolution music which is far above in terms of quality to that offered by CDs. The challenge was to extract the most out of digital files by deploying high end analog technology post the DAC stage so that, the transients, phase and timbral aspects of music is well preserved.

THE SOLUTION

An ingenious amalgamation of Valve technology and Digital technology was planned. High quality Cirrus Logic 192 Khz DAC was chosen for the Digital to Analog conversion stage and all amplification stages were implemented using Valve. The choice of tubes/valves were vintage gold pin Telefunken E88CC. The end result can not be explained by words unless experienced in person.
