Elac AS-DDP2-BK Stereo Pre-amp/DAC/Streamer - Black

The ELAC Alchemy DDP-2 is a new, clean-slate design that combines three components in one elegant piece of gear. It gives you the highest-quality digital-to-analog converter, preamp, and digital streamer that ELACs design team led by the legendary designer Peter Madnick of Audio Alchemy and Constellation Audio fame knows how to make. Then ELAC combined all of this in a single chassis only 1U (1.75 inches) high. The preamplifier offers maximum flexibility, while incorporating DAC and streaming functions to make the DDP-2 the centerpiece of your digital system. The DDP-2 is every bit as advanced as you would expect from a piece of gear bearing the legendary Alchemy name. It boasts dual 32-bit, 768 kHz DACs operating in digitally balanced mode. For the best performance with the digital music that you love, it offers custom-selectable DSP filter profiles, configurable up-sampling to 384 kHz, and selectable resolution enhancement upgrades of 16-bit to 24-bit, and 24-bit to 32-bit.
