Description
The APL DSD-SR DAC MK2 is specifically made for those enthusiastic audiophiles who search for the most natural and analogue-like digital audio reproduction offered by an all-solid-state APL DAC design.
It is an all-hand-made boutique, designed and built with the best possible audio quality in mind for its price range.
Like the APL DSD-MR MK2 reference converter, the APL DSD-SR DAC MK2 is inspired by vinyl sound quality, and it provides a comparable rich and spacious sonic character.
From the quadruple DSD processing rate to the transformer-coupled Class A output stage, the APL DSD-SR MK2 offers a high level of technological advancement and refinement.
The APL DSD-SR MK2 is based on a modular design, allowing cost-effective future upgradability of any internal stage.
