Dangerous Music Convert-2
Product information "Dangerous Music Convert-2"
The new Dangerous Music CONVERT-2 is an audiophile Reference Grade Stereo D/A Converter. It's the logical improvement of the now legendary DAC-ST and the further developed versions of it in D-Box and Source. And it once again raises the bar.
The CONVERT series was designed from ground up with a zero-compromise attitude. Decades of accumulated knowledge and experience combined with the Dangerous Music core philosophie "transparent, yet musical" leveraged to a truly exceptional converter: profoundly detailed, with a richly defined low end and an unparalleled clarity that holds true across the entire audio spectrum.
An important feature too rare with pure D/A-Units is the bi-directional USB-connectivity. When acting as an interface (CONVERT-2 receives the signal to be converted via USB), the other direction (meaning the USB-input) is fed by the "AES-2" Input.
Second important feature: A volume pot for directly connecting speakers. Turned fully clockwise it is taken entirely out of the signal path via a relay / switch. This is better when utilizing an external Monitor Controller like the Dangerous Music Monitor ST.
Features:
- Audiophile Mastering Front End Playback Conversion
- 5 Digital Input Formats: USB, AES, SPDIF, ADAT, Optical SPDIF (Toslink)
- Sampling Frequencies from 44.1 bis 192 kHz with automatic detection
- High Definition Stereo Reference Monitoring
- extremely low jitter clock that will send many dedicated studio masterclocks to retirement
- USB Input for Direct DAW Connectivity
- "USB digital pass through": When switched to USB the elsewise unused USB-Input receives the AES-2 Input
- Compatible with Monitor ST/SR for Remote Switching
- extreme precise Metering (Peakmeter) taken from the Dangerous Master
- digital thru for connecting an external Metering
