Loading... Please wait...The Peachtree Audio DAC*iT is a D-to-A converter designed to bring your audio system into the new millennium using the computer you already own. Optimized for computer and streaming audio music devices, the DAC*iT features the three most important digital inputs, USB for your computer, optical and coaxial for any other type of streamer or CD/DVD player.
All three inputs take advantage of the high-resolution ESS Sabre32 9022 DAC chip and hot-rodded analog output section. This eliminates the need for expensive sound cards and effectively replaces the weak analog output section built in to streaming devices.
For a little added convenience, a remote control with discreet input selection is included with the DAC*iT.
Unlike CD transports, computers and streaming devices tend to present a rather harsh musical environment with a unique set of challenges. The Peachtree DAC*it is specifically designed for this environment and is optimized to handle these challenges.
1) The DAC is galvanically isolated, which is necessary when dealing with electrical noise generated by a computer's USB output. Elimination of this noise via USB is among the most important reasons that the USB section performs so well.
2) Reclocks any digital signal to less than 3 p/s. This is quite a claim since many computers have up to ten times the mistiming (jitter) of a CD player.
3) The DaciT's USB input accepts data up to 24/96 to handle high-resolution audio downloads.
4) Streaming devices can be attached to the DAC*iT via optical or coax which is also transformer coupled to prevent superfluous noise from entering the signal path. The DAC*iT thinks they are all high-end CD players. So if you have an Apple TV, Sonos or other streamer that you want to hook up to your existing system, the DAC*iT is your ticket to performance.
