Description
The new ELEVEN AUDIO Sagra DAC 2 is a premium D/A converter, featuring a 27-bit R2R digital to analog converter, multiple digital inputs covering all formats, balanced and RCA analog outputs, 4 filter modes, and a front panel volume control with remote control. It can be used as sole digital source preamp to drive a dedicated amplifier, or added within a multi piece stereo system as an excellent digital source.
Fully regulated power supplies and Class A ultra-low-noise analog circuitry provide pristine sound through single-ended RCA and balanced XLR outputs, transforming digital recordings into vibrant analog music.
The Sagra DAC 2 supports sampling rates up to DSD256 and PCM 384KHz/24 bit, delivering a dynamic range far beyond what most systems can reproduce. The sound is remarkably clear, detailed, and smooth. No sibilance, vocals come alive, piano and horn exhibit authentic tonal and harmonic structure. Excellent bass extension and depth go way beyond other comparable DAC's, an all around joy to listen to with any genre of music.
Sagra DAC 2 is an excellent upgrade to any stereo 2 channel or headphone system. If you've been thinking about improving your source and entire listening chain, the Sagra is an excellent choice.
