We are thrilled to present to you a piece that exemplifies the relentless pursuit of auditory perfection at Audio Note (UK), The DAC3.1x/II Balanced.

An embodiment of their commitment to achieving unparalleled sonic clarity, the DAC3.1x Balanced is meticulously crafted to align with the stringent Level 3 criteria of Audio Note (UK). What does this entail? A design philosophy that ideally avoids oversampling, jitter reduction, noise shaping, and re-clocking. Instead, at Audio Note (UK) they emphasize the use of supremely high-grade components, elevating the experience of audio purity and musicality.

The heart of the DAC3.1x/II pulsates with a pair of ECC82 / 5814a double triode valves. These valves are seamlessly integrated into an output stage, intimately coupled with an output transformer wound with their own bespoke Audio Note (UK) Copper wire. A 33:1 step-down ratio assures the listener a vast frequency response and a dynamic transfer function that’s truly breathtaking. Whether you prefer single-ended or balanced operation, their DAC3.1x/II is versatile enough to cater to both, with top-of-the-line RCA and XLR connectors enhancing its analogue output.

Their commitment to unblemished audio doesn’t halt there. A dual-channel power supply, complete with double choke filtering and valve rectification, is the bedrock of the DAC3.1x/II. This intricate design effectively isolates the digital circuitry, ensuring a signal path that is succinct, pristine, and remarkably free from external interference. Furthermore, their shunt-type digital power supply is a testament to their obsession with low noise. By delivering high-quality power to the DAC3.1x/II, it accentuates its optimal sonic performance.

Peeling back the layers of this masterpiece reveals a treasure of high-caliber internal components. From their signature Audio Note (UK) Copper Foil capacitors to the critically-selected high-quality resistors, every detail is intentional. The analogue stage filter inductors and the internal wiring aren’t just components; they are handpicked symphonies of their trademark Audio Note (UK) wire, ensuring an audio path that resonates with unmatched clarity and vibrancy.

The DAC3.1x/II Balanced isn’t just a product; it is a testament to their unwavering dedication to pushing the boundaries of sonic perfection. It invites you to experience music in its purest form, untouched, untainted, and undeniably unparalleled.
