The Naim DAC marks a technical milestone
comparable to our first CD player, the CDS. The CDS demonstrated that CD
replay and lifelike music reproduction were not mutually exclusive.
Now, the Naim DAC demonstrates that the jitter and noise that bedevil
traditional external digital to analogue converters can be overcome and a
new route to the real enjoyment of music opened. The Naim DAC provides
eight S/PDIF inputs, two USB inputs, and is capable of handling audio
data sampled at up to 768kHz and with up to 24bit resolution.
It not only brings all the digital inputs together into the analogue
domain, but does so with a level of performance that can compete with
the finest from any Naim CD player to provide unrivalled musical
fulfilment.
Listening to the Naim DAC is a revelation. Music, whether its source
be an iPod, a CD or a high resolution data file, is presented afresh,
with more definition, more insight, more warmth, and simply more of
those hard to-define clues of rhythm, melody and emotion that
distinguish the real thing from pale imitation. The Naim DAC is an
advance that brings real music in the home closer to reality than ever
before.
