HIGH-END D/A
  • Dedicated D/A converter for greater convenience, allows monitoring a secondary source
D/A CONVERSION
  • Dual DAC architecture for enhanced stereo imaging and signal-to-noise ratio
TRANSPARENT ANALOG MONITORING
  • A -1dB stepped relay attenuator with 0.05dB precision and full bypass option
64-BIT MASTER CLOCKING
  • Sharp conversion timing via 4th gen AFC jitter management technology
SOFTWARE CONTROL
  • Super intuitive OS X & Windows compatible software panel
 
FLEXIBLE CONTROL
Access all Pure2 features via Mac & PC app or through the front-panel controls
