Designed for Audiophiles, Priced for the Rest of Us
Don't let the size fool you: the D1 can handle just about anything you throw at it. It processes digital audio at any bit depth up to 32 bits and any sample rate to 384KHz. And with its high signal-to-noise ratio and low distortion, the D1 delivers sound quality generally heard only in more expensive DACs. The high-performance headphone output was designed for a wide range of headphones and will satisfy even the most demanding headphone enthusiasts.
Setup That’s as Easy as 1-2
First, you won’t need any special software, apps or drivers, so this is a true plug-and-play solution. The D1 outputs connect to any audio system or powered speakers, such as the Audioengine A5+ or A2. Power for the D1 comes from the USB bus so there's no external power supply to connect. Once you’ve got something going in and coming out, you are ready to rock. (No, seriously. That’s all there is to it.)
