The DAC205 accepts incoming digital audio in the S\/PDIF or AES\/EBU formats and delivers a pristine analogue output that betters the DACs built into most audio interfaces, CD players, and other devices with digital audio outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePristine Conversion Quality\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DAC205 accepts incoming digital audio via its S\/PDIF or TOSLINK inputs, transparently converts it to analogue audio, and delivers pristine sound via its XLR or RCA outputs. Two different units with digital outputs can be simultaneously connected to the DAC205. The active input is easily selected with the front-mounted input selector switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt uses no less than four D\/A converters per audio channel, operated in parallel for enhanced signal-to-noise performance. Several signal reclocking schemes are combined to achieve high jitter attenuation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMultiple Use Cases\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DAC205 is equally suited for a high-end hi-fi setup as in a professional mixing or mastering studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHi-Fi users will typically feed it from the digital output of a playback device such as a CD player or a network player. For professional audio engineers, the input can be fed from an audio interface’s S\/PDIF or AES\/EBU output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe common denominator is that the conversion quality of the DAC205 will significantly surpass the DACs built into most such output devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDAC205 Comparison\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared to its larger sibling, the \u003ca title=\"Weiss DAC204 Merchant Listing\" href=\"https:\/\/bloomaudio.mom\/products\/weiss-dac204-converter\"\u003eDAC204\u003c\/a\u003e, the DAC205 offers the same conversion quality.
