Item Description The DAC1 is a two-channel, 24-bit, 192-kHz Digital-to-Analog audio converter. It is, perhaps, one of the more significant recent advances in digital-audio conversion technology. Listening to audio from the DAC1 is an absolutely truthful experience. The distortion free output is so pristine you can now hear detail which was previously masked by jitter induced artifacts and distortion. If the recording was exceptional, you’ll hear it; if it wasn’t, you’ll hear that as well. The DAC1 is a 192-kHz converter, and will playback 192-kHz signals with a 52-kHz analog bandwidth. THD+N is an astonishing low -105 dB (0.00056%) measured at 0 dBFS, and -107 dB measured at -3 dBFS – at any playback frequency, at any sample rate, and with any degree of input jitter. The secret? UltraLock™ technology. Additional features include: phase-coherence between units, auto-detection and processing of pre-emphasized digital audio, and an ultrahigh performance HPA-2 headphone amplifier with dual outputs. The DAC1 has an internal, international toroidal power supply. The front panel level-control always adjusts the headphone output level. The front panel level-control can also be selected to adjust the output levels at the rear of the converter. Alternately, the output levels can be set at a fixed gain with precision, rear panel; 10-turn trim pots. The balanced output level range is +10 dBu to +29 dBu at 0 dBFS. The DAC1 is essential equipment for mastering and recording studios, broadcast facilities, even audiophile home stereo installations, and all locations that require uncolored monitoring.

Benchmark DAC1 HDR Digital to Analog converter with Benchmark Remote control. This DAC is also a source selector and motorized volume control, replacing audio preamps or souce selectors in a high end audio system. The Benchmark is a studio reference piece with a lower noise floor and higher dynamic range than most of the consumer grade DACs. The Benchmark is in a different class than consumer products. in terms of jitter, digital artifact rejection, and analog conversion.I ran my CD player and digital streaming device connected digitally to the DAC1 HDR and switched sources using the DAC, eliminating my preamp. It even has an analog input for your tape deck or phono preamp. This DAC1 HDR is in excellent condition and probably one step away from being mint. This was nearly $2200 new.https://benchmarkmedia.com/collections/discontinued-products/products/benchmark-dac1-hdr-digital-to-analog-audio-converter Ships to the USA lower 48 states only and will require a delivery signature.
