Overview:
The Musical Fidelity V-DAC is an external digital-to-analog convertor operating at 24-bits, 192kHz with true up-sampling. The V-DAC has extremely low noise, very low distortion, wide bandwidth, and outstanding linearity. The V-DAC digital-to-analog convertor will make substantial sonic improvements to almost any CD player, computer, or other digital source. Simply connect the V-DAC between your digital audio device (via optical, coaxial, or USB) and your home stereo receiver (via analog stereo RCA).
24-Bit/192kHz DAC:
The Musical Fidelity V-DAC features a built-in 24-bit/192kHz digital-to-analog convertor with up-sampling. The V-DAC provides lower noise, better linearity, a ruler-flat frequency response, excellent stereo separation, ultra-low distortion, and incredibly low jitter compared to most integrated DACs found in today's CD/DVD players, game consoles, computers, and other digital audio sources.
Digital Inputs (optical/coaxial):
The Musical Fidelity V-DAC is equipped with a optical and coaxial digital input for connecting your CD player, DVD player, game system, or other digital audio device. The V-DAC's surpasses most digital-to-analog convertors found in your digital audio source device.
USB Port:
The Musical Fidelity V-DAC external digital-to-analog convertor features a USB (type-B) port for the connection of your Windows PC or Mac computer, so you can listen to your stored compressed music files with high-quality sound. The V-DAC lets your compressed music files sound like a high-quality CD player.
Analog Output:
The Musical Fidelity V-DAC is equipped with a gold-plated, stereo RCA output for connecting the device to your home stereo receiver.
LED Indicators:
There are 2 LED lights to indicate operating status.
Blue LED:
There is a Blue Power LED indicates the unit is powered on and ready for use.
Green LED:
The Green Status LED indicates the presence of a digital signal.
Power Requirements:
The Musical Fidelity V-DAC operates off of standard household current (120V AC, 60Hz) using the supplied AC power adapter (12V DC, 500mA). The external power adapter is separate from the digital-analog-converter to further improve sound quality.
