Musical Fidelity MX-DAC

Product Overview

The MX DAC has inputs for: 2 x coax (up to 24bit 192 kHz PCM), 2 x optical (up to 24bit 192kHz PCM) and asynchronous USB up to 24bit 192 kHz PCM as well as DSD 64 and DSD 128. Also, all inputs whether from coax, optical or USB, are processed in the DSD domain. This desirable feature gives a warmth and humanity to the sound that simple digital conversion doesn’t achieve. The MX DAC has both single ended and balanced outputs. The new MX range has beautiful aesthetics and wonderful build quality. The front panel and housing are both from exclusive custom-made extrusions using mil-spec aluminium. Superlative state of the art performance with ultra-flat frequency response Able to process DSD64 and DSD128 formats as well as PCM up to 192kHz / 24bit Multiple digital inputs – 2 x coax, 2 x optical, and asynchronous USB All inputs processed and converted in DSD domain Very low noise Extremely low distortion Outstanding linearity Outstanding channel separation Beautiful aesthetics and build quality Reviews Read the HiFiChoice - "Lively, musical and glass-clear sound" DAVID PRICE - HI-FI CHOICE 08/15
