Audio Research Dac8 In great shape. works great and of course sounds amazing! has every digital input imaginable. SPDIF over RCA, Coax or Toslink, AES/EBU XLR input and even USB! how cool is that. talk about the ultimate Computer Soundcard WOW! From the ARCDB website. We are pleased to introduce the new DAC8 digital to analog converter. Although physically similar to its predecessor, the DAC8 represents new engineering that advances the state of the art in high resolution USB audio and S/PDIF audio. Audio Research has maximized the USB capability of the DAC8 by incorporating USB 2.0 HS (High Speed) which runs at 480Mbps. USB 2.0 HS has a lower jitter specification than USB 2.0 FS (Full Speed 12mbps), consequently the DAC8 is capable of reproducing music at higher definition/resolution (up to 24/192) than products communicating at USB 2.0 FS speeds (24/96). In addition, the DAC8 employs a low jitter Dual Master Oscillator design that will provide superior digital to analog conversion via its USB 2.0 HS input as well as via the more traditional S/PDIF (RCA, BNC, Toslink and AES/EBU) inputs that are also included on the DAC8. Our USB 2.0 HS audio interface is optimized for all six sample- rates currently in popular use; 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4 and 192kHz. In the past, S/PDIF was the default interface mode for High Resolution music files at 176.4 and 192kHz. Now, with Audio Research’s Dual Master Oscillator, USB 2.0 HS interface, and our Quad D/A converter design, USB audio is finally elevated to the status once dominated by S/PDIF. Consequently, regardless of whichever digital input you select, the Audio Research DAC8 promises to provide a superior listening experience. In addition to the High Performance USB design, the DAC8 features: DAC8 HD Audio Device software drivers, which allow listening to your music in its native sample rate as well as assuring BIT PERFECT, low jitter, data transfer from the computer to your DAC8. Because PC and Mac operating systems do not adequately support sample rates over 96kHz, Audio Research has developed ASIO drivers to make the USB audio experience sonically transparent at all sample rates. Sample Rate measuring function: Measures and displays the correct digital sample rate being sent to the DAC8. This works in USB as well as S/PDIF mode. Consequently, at a glance, you always know exactly which sample rate is being decoded. The DAC8 employs four 24-bit D/A converters. Each channel uses dual 24-bit D/A converters running in mono mode to lower the noise floor and increase the dynamic range. Dual Master Oscillators: When the time base of any DAC is not an integer multiple of the digital music sample rate, decoding and quantization errors occur. Consequently, the DAC8 uses two low jitter Master Oscillators; one for 44.1, 88.2 & 176.4kHz sample rates and the other for 48, 96 & 192 kHz sample rates. The DAC8 automatically selects the correct Master Oscillator the instant digital music is detected at the selected input. All inputs are galvanically isolated from the source to reduce or eliminate noise and/or jitter from entering the DAC8. The Analog amplifiers in the DAC8 have received the same attention to detail as the digital section. Each channel of the DAC8 uses a true direct-coupled differential amplifier with a bandwidth in excess of 90kHz. The DAC8’s USB and S/PDIF inputs are designed to accept signals from an HRx, 176.4kHz, 24-bit, High-Resolution music server system playing HRx’s DVD-R recordings. See www.referencerecordings.com/HRxSETUPS.asp for recommended music server setups. By virtue of all of the above points and our proprietary software drivers, intrinsic jitter has been reduced to less than 10ps. DAC8 HD AUDIO DEVICE SOFTWARE DRIVERS: The DAC8’s USB driver software provides your computer with special high-speed audio drivers not supplied by MS Windows or Mac OS. The Audio Research USB drivers are specially designed to assure low jitter BIT PERFECT data transfer between the server/computer and the DAC8 at all sample rates. Our drivers setup the USB interface to guarantee bandwidth, independent of active bulk transfers from the hard drive. From the ARC icon in your computer’s input tray you can set the DAC8 to any sample rate from 44.1 to 192kHz and allow the music server/management software to up or down convert your music to the selected sample rate. Music lovers can use custom sample rate conversion algorithms or other file formats provided by third party suppliers such as Windows Media Player, iTunes, J Rivers Media Center, Media Monkey, FooBar, and many others to optimize your music experience. The DAC8 is a fully balanced, zero-feedback, solid-state design utilizing a direct-coupled FET output stage with generous regulated power supplies and seven stages of regulation. There are separate new digital and audio power transformers, and the board material is the same as what we use in our Reference products. Dynamic, forceful, immediate, and possessing remarkable resolution and transparency, the DAC8 is a sonic knockout that is worthy of the finest music systems. With a choice of high-resolution 24/192 S/PDIF inputs (RCA, BNC, AES/EBU and Toslink) in addition to the highest resolution 24/192 USB available, the ability to adjust sample rates, the DAC8 provides the new standard in high performance digital music playback.

Thanks for looking! ---- From Audio Research Website: Digital that sounds like analogDigital advances quickly and Audio Research continues to stay at the performance forefront.Our perspective and love for analog reproduction helps make our digital components sound superior musically. The DAC9 is a vacuum-tube analog section combined with the latest digital design, capable of decoding DSD music files and PCM files up to 384kHz. Selectable digital filters & quad D-A convertersAudio Research designed two separate data paths to the DAC9’s D-A converters: one for PCM files, and another to handle serial DSD files at 1x and 2x DSD clock rates. This assures proper integer decoding eliminating interpolation distortion errors that degrade sonic purity. Native sample-rate upsampling is available for all inputs, up to 384kHz for non-DSD (PCM) music files.Selectable digital filters are available for customization. An asynchronous USB input, along with four galvanically isolated SPDIF inputs, assures all of your digital sources will integrate with the DAC9. We pioneered using quad D-A converters, with each channel using dual stereo DACs running in mono to increase dynamic range and lower the noise floor. The digital side mates to a vacuum-tube analog section that uses a pair of 6H30 dual triode tubes. The DAC9 is a balanced design with a Class-A, zero feedback analog section with no capacitive coupling.Like other products that have preceded it, the DAC9 combines remarkable resolution with relaxed musicality. Audio Research’s sonic legacy—clarity, dynamics, dimensionality, and musical authority—are obvious and thoroughly engaging. After more than 50 years, our focus remains the advancement of the state-of-the-art in music reproduction.

I/50 Overview from Audio Research Corporation The I/50 Integrated Amplifier is the first product in an all-new series from Audio Research. Functionally simple, visually engaging, and musically sublime – the I/50 takes music listening to a whole new experience. Hand-crafted in Minnesota, the I/50 is built with the same attention to detail as all other Audio Research products – each one even gets its own listening test with sonic designer Warren Gehl. The I/50 features a Cerakote finish for a beautiful, long-lasting look. The modular design allows for the installation of two audio modules – a Phono Stage and a D/A Converter. The high current, 50-watt per channel amplifier is capable of driving a wide variety of speakers. A headphone jack allows for personal listening time.The I/50 is designed to be easy to use and has three controls on its top panel – Power, Input, and Volume. Two LexieTubes® provide display information for input selection and volume. Two matched pairs of 6550WE vacuum tubes, along with three 6922 tubes, stand in front of the perforated transformer cover. Three single-ended inputs and one XLR input provide connectivity for most systems, along with 4- and 8-ohm speaker taps to accommodate your speaker of choice. One input can be assigned for pass-through function. A full-function metal remote control provides further functionality and operation. An optional tube cage will be available.As with all Audio Research products, the I/50 is built entirely in our Minnesota facility by a team of skilled technicians and expert craftspeople. Offered in six colors, the I/50 is the first product completely finished in-house. The Audio Research finishing lab encompasses a purpose-built painting facility and laser imaging and marking machines to produce a luxurious finish normally found only on much more expensive products. The Cerakote finish is not only beautiful, but designed to be enduring and easy to maintain.The performance of the I/50 belies its compact design. 50 watts of all-vacuum tube power energize your speakers with beautiful and lifelike music. Designed by the Audio Research engineering team and fine-tuned by Warren Gehl, the I/50 has been given the same level of care and attention as our Reference Series products. The ability of the I/50 to reconstruct a musical experience will thrill and excite all who hear it. The I/50 provides controlled and dynamic playback – even on challenging speakers thanks to the substantial power supply and high current design. The Phono module provides 42 dB of gain, allowing a wide choice of moving magnet and high-output moving coil cartridges. The D/A Converter will have multiple connection options and an array of decoding formats to accommodate the wide spectrum of music formats and resolutions. The I/50 is a truly integrated product that provides renowned Audio Research performance and sound quality. Power Output: 50 watts continuous from 20Hz to 20kHz. 1kHz total harmonic distortion typically 1% per channel, below 0.1% at 1 watt (Note that actual power output is dependent upon both line voltage and “condition” i.e.: if power line has high distortion, maximum power will be affected adversely, although from a listening standpoint this is not critical)Power Bandwidth: (-3dB points) 10Hz to 22kHzFrequency Response: (-3dB points at 1 watt) 7Hz to 30kHzInput Sensitivity: 1.25V RMS for rated output.Input Impedance: 100K ohms Balanced, 48K ohms Single EndedOutput Polarity: Non-inverting.

Excellent condition DAC 7, works as it should. Shipped in original product box, signature required upon delivery.

In very nice condition! (some small scratches on side and back.) Original manual, box and packing ARE included. Introduced in 1991. Specs are last image. The DAC1-20 is clearly toward the top of Class A in Stereophiles Recommended Components, and may be the most musical converter Ive auditioned. The fact that it costs much less than the competition makes it, in my view, the best buy in D/A converters today. —Robert Harley - Stereophile Magazine From the original brochure: There is no single key to the DAC1s remarkable performance, but the three basic sections of its overall architecture merit discussion: power-supply topology and regulation; the digital-analog converter itself; and the all-discrete analog output stage. The first and last of these areas draw heavily upon Audio Researchs many years of experience and leadership in analog circuit design. First, three separate power transformers are used in the DAC1: one for the digital input and filtering stages, another for the digital converter and a third for the analog output stage. Three transformers allow tighter regulation of the supplies they feed, with better isolation between analog and digital circuitry, than a single multi-winding transformer can offer: the final result is cleaner, more dynamic musical performance. In addition, a total of five costly discrete regulators help maintain a clean supply of power to each critical stage. Finally, two linear regulators are dedicated to the digital input stage and to the automatic muting circuit. In-circuit capacitors are all audio-grade polypropylene or polystyrene types which have been individually evaluated for best sonic performance. The DAC1s heavy, double-sided circuit board typifies the Audio Research approach: heavy plating and extra-wide traces laid down in a clean, shortest-path layout. Special care was taken in the design of grounding paths to prevent infiltration of the analog signal path by digital noise. In addition to the meticulously executed power supply, the digital converter used inside the DAC1 merits further discussion. Manufactured for Audio Research by UltraAnalog Inc., an acknowledged leader in high-resolution digital design, the converter itself is a multi-bit, eight-times-oversampling design with full linearity over 112 db for the DAC1-20. These specifications are inherent in the design of the converter itself, and thus will not degrade or vary over time. The converter itself is preceded in-circuit by an 20-bit in the DAC1-20, eight-times oversampling digital filter providing de emphasis (when required) in the digital domain, scaled to all incoming frequencies. An initial digital receiver automatically locks on the incoming sampling frequency (32, 44.1 or 48 KHz) and re-clocks all data via a single phase-locke-loop circuit, thus minimizing data jitter at the input - a contributing cause of poor digital audio quality. The DAC1 is an elegant, straightforward design, carefully executed, which does not require so-called on-board computers to reconfigure the digital data input. The analog output stage of the DAC1 clearly exhibits Audio Researchs belief that this section of the overall design has been seriously compromised in many previous digital products. The DAC1 has a high-current, all-discrete analog stage employing J-FET transistors at the input and MOSFETS at the output. Only costly discrete regulators are used, along with a patented DEC (Decoupled Electrolytic Capacitor) circuit. The latter is a new circuit technique employed by Audio Research engineers to enable critical bypass capacitors to operate more effectively (ie. with lower distortion) at middle and high frequencies, where the human ear is most sensitive. Other, less obvious aspects of the DAC1s design are important as well. A built-in AC line filter at the input helps deliver cleaner AC power to all three transformers for better sonics. And, none of the DAC1s three front-panel switches (power on-off. phase inversion, and input selector) invade the audio signal path. Phase inversion is accomplished in the digital domain for maximum purity and accuracy. Sonically, the DAC1 brings CD playback to a new level of realism and enjoyment. Used in conjunction with a high-quality CD transport, the DAC1 is capable of recreating a musical soundstage that is remarkably akin to high-resolution analog in its presentation of spatial cues, low-level ambient detail, high-frequency information and musical dynamics. In short, the DAC1 is a new window opened upon the world of digital playback. We are a real brick and mortar audio shop that has been around for 42 years!
