IDEON IΩN DAC & Pre-Amp

The IDEON IΩN DAC emerges from the heart of Greece, a testament to IDEON AUDIO’s relentless pursuit of audio excellence. This state-of-the-art digital-to-analog converter exemplifies a harmonious blend of innovative technologies and superior design choices aimed at delivering an unrivaled auditory experience.

Central to the IΩN DAC’s prowess is its advanced analog stage, which mirrors the sophistication of a high-end phonostage. The key differentiator is its symmetrical ultra-low noise power supply, a bespoke innovation designed to significantly diminish noise levels and distortion. Such meticulous attention to minimizing interference is paramount in achieving an untainted and enriched sound quality that can satisfy the most discerning listener.

At the core of the DAC’s architecture is a quad current output configuration, a strategic inclusion that bolsters the signal-to-noise ratio to an impressive -120 dB. This heightened output impedance ensures a crisp and clear audio signal, free from the undesired noise that often plagues lesser systems.

IDEON AUDIO’s pioneering spirit shines through with the integration of two zero-noise active bridges within the DAC. These bridges are a creative solution to an age-old problem—rectification noise. By eliminating this common source of audio distortion, the IΩN DAC takes a significant leap forward in refining the purity of its sound output.

In its mission to achieve uncompromising audio fidelity, IDEON has equipped the IΩN DAC with a specially engineered transformer, boasting an extreme core that serves as the cornerstone of its power supply management. This critical component contributes substantially to the device’s capacity to consistently perform at peak levels, ensuring that listeners enjoy a stable and dynamic sonic presentation.

An exclusive collaboration with ESS has allowed IDEON to craft dedicated software for the ESS 9028PRO DAC chip. This tailored software maximizes the chip’s capabilities, offering native support for an extensive array of DSD and PCM formats and frequencies. Furthermore, the IΩN DAC has been designed with foresight, presenting upgradeable features for both the unit itself and its USB input engine, promising users a future-proof investment that evolves with technological advancements.

For those who require an integrated solution, the IΩN Pre-Amp variant stands ready. Building upon the impressive foundation of the IΩN DAC, it introduces a fully balanced design, an ultra-low noise linear power supply, balanced inputs, and a broad gain range, all of which coalesce to furnish an extraordinary pre-amplification function. The pre-amp’s capacity to deliver clean, detailed, and accurate sound amplification is crucial for an immersive and nuanced audio experience.

The IDEON IΩN DAC & Pre-Amp represents a pinnacle of audio engineering, with each feature meticulously crafted to provide a seamless and sublime listening experience. From the symmetrical power supply to the custom USB driver, every aspect has been thoughtfully curated to enhance audio performance and deliver a premium product that stands at the forefront of current technology.
