Your system needs digital input and we have you covered.
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.
