Nostromo uX2 DAC

DAC-AUDIO

2 digital inputs – 1 optical, 1 coaxial and 2 analog outputs – 2 x RCA, 3.5-mm stereo jack.

VERSION BASED ON WM8524

The optical and coaxial inputs accept digital signal with sampling rate and bit rate up to 192 kHz/24 bit.

A high-quality DAC, digital/analog converter, from S/PDIF standard, coaxial (RCA), toslink (optical) to analog (stereo). Two S/PDIF inputs – RCA, toslnk; analog output – 2 x RCA. The NOSTROMO uX2 DAC is manufactured from highest quality parts: WIMA capacitors, VISHAY DRALORIC precision resistors, 12 MHz quartz clock with 5 ppm accuracy. RCA sockets from PRO SIGNAL are gold-plated. The power supply section uses high-capacitance audio capacitors, the smaller capacitors are tantalum SMD ones from BEYSCHLAG. The power supply section is based on two-step voltage stabilizer, which is further separated into independent sections for key parts of the circuit. The digital input section is based on the WM8804 circuit from WOLFSON (with phenomenally low jitter), characterized by biphase input signal sampling frequency (fS) range: 32 kHz to 192 kHz.

The digital/analog conversion (DAC) part is based on WM8524 circuit from WOLFSON with 24-bit resolution, SNR – 106 dB and low clock-jitter sensitivity.

A dedicated AC adapter is included with the device. Written warranty is for 24 months.
