Pro-Ject DAC Box RS2

A PCM 1792 DAC with a switchable 6922 tubeor solid-state output stage

The advanced DAC Box RS is a reference-class D/A converter for all kinds of digital stereo sound sources. All inputs fully support 24/192kHz HD music data (optical inputs 96/24) in fully asynchronous mode. An I2S connection lets you connect the Pro-Ject CD Box RS2 to create a high-end CD player.

TheDAC Box RSis based on thePCM 1792, and twodifferent digital filter settings (steep and optimum phase) are available. Best of all, you can select between a 6922 tube output stage or a class-A solid-state one. Switch based on system of overall preference, or switch depending on the genre and recording quality.

The circuit design isultra-low noise and ultralinear with a very low output impedance to avoid any negative interference with cables or pre-amps.

An outboard power supply is included.
