DA2 V2 STEREO D/A CONVERTER

The DA2 V2 is our updated agship 16xDSD/DSD1024 stereo D/A converter. It is the the next evolutionary step in our line of award winning, critically acclaimed range of high end converter systems. The DA2 V2 features a multitude of inputs and support for PCM up to 24bit/192kHz, DSD, 2xDSD, DXD (352/384kHz), and MQA® via USB.

OVERVIEW

KEY FEATURES:

  • 16xDSD proprietary discrete dual differential D-to-A
    converters (MDAC2™)
  • New high High/Low output gain control
  • Latest generation Meitner Digital Audio Translator
    signal processing technology (MDAT2™)
  • Enhanced technology for instant signal acquisition and
    jitter-free performance (MFAST™)
  • Proprietary asynchronous clocking system (MCLK2™)
  • USB interface with custom hardware galvanic isolation
  • Up to 24bit/192kHz & DSD support over all inputs
  • 2xDSD, DXD (352/384kHz) & MQA®
    support over USB
  • User controlled signal polarity
  • Custom aerospace-grade ceramic circuit boards
  • EMM Optilink for transport or streamer connection
  • Precision-machined aluminum chassis & remote control
  • Service USB port for future software upgrades
  • RS-232 serial port for wired remote control

16xDSD Proprietary Discrete DACs
MDAC2™ is the world’s rst true fully discrete
DSD1024/16xDSD D/A converter and still built in-house
at our manufacturing facility in Calgary, Canada.
We’re not willing to accept the inherent non-linearities
of every mass-market chip created to date. Neither
should you.

Newly Updated MDAT2™: 16xDSD Upsampling
Our multi-award winning MDAT2™ DSP has been
rened and updated to synergistically work with the new
16xDSD MDAC2™. The new MDAT2™ DSP does
real-time transient detection, processing and
up-conversion of all incoming audio, PCM and DSD,
before sending it to the new 16xDSD DACs.

USB Isolation, MFAST™ and MCLK2™
The USB interface includes EMM’s proprietary hardware
galvanic isolation. In combination with MFAST™, our
high-speed asynchronous jitter removal technology and
and MCLK2™ our custom built clock, jitter is completely
removed from the conversion process.

The new DA2 V2’s analog and digital systems have been
meticulously revised. All culminating in that next level of
immersive pristine sonic clarity that has been the
denition of every new EMM product. The DA2 V2, our
new reference converter proudly designed and made in
Canada.
