Atoll DAC300

Atoll DAC 300 |

The DAC300 DAC Atoll is equipped with an ESS Sober 9038PRO converter and can process digital audio signals up to 32 bits and 768 kHz.

The French brand Atoll offers with the DAC300 an uncompromising digital-to-analog converter, equipped with S / PDIF optical, coaxial and AES / EBU inputs, as well as a USB type B port. The Atac DAC300 DAC is distinguished by a neat design, which implements a dual power supply - for digital and analog circuits - to reduce interference. The balanced output stages employ discrete components while the audio links use high quality MKP capacitors. This DAC also has a very good quality of manufacture, with a thick steel frame and a brushed aluminum front.

The DAC300 Atoll DAC is an audiophile solution for using digital audio files from a computer, including studio-quality up to 32-bit and 768-kHz. Its asynchronous USB port, coupled with a powerful internal synchronization clock, helps reduce the distortion of the streamed digital stream. Ideally, such a DAC should be used with software compatible with the ASIO protocol (Foobar2000 on Windows and Audirvana on Mac OS).
