ARCAM CDS50 CD/SACD Network Player
CDS50
Our most advanced cd, digital audio and network streaming player yet
In a sense, digital audio doesn’t exist. You’d have to be a particularly dull superhero to possess ears that can decode the millions of 1’s and 0’s that make up your CD collection or iTunes library. Whatever the source – be it a laptop, CD player, smartphone, USB stick – the result is just a vibration in your speakers. In other words, it all winds up analogue in the end.
Arguably, when playing from a digital format, the most vital component is the DAC, or Digital to Analogue Converter. We’ll spare you the bulk of the science, but this is what translates that otherwise lifeless binary code into audible sound energy. Bit-depth, meanwhile, is a key measure of audio quality.
So, if you’re listening to a 24-bit WAV copy of your favourite album through a DAC that only converts to 16-bit, there’s a good chunk of detail going to waste right there. That’s why we’ve included 32-bit DACs on the entire HDA range – the most commonly used bit-depth in digital recording – so you’re guaranteed the full aural picture of whatever the artist intended.

LUXMAN DA-150
Desktop revolution – a new definition of D/A converter
The DA-150 is a state of the art, compact, USB D/A converter built upon the same principle as its predecessor, the DA-100, that is to construct a simple PC audio environment to offer high quality sound in a small footprint. Desktop usability and high sound quality co-exist perfectly within the design of the DA-150 with features such as compatibility with USBs inputting PCM 192 kHz/32 bits and DSD 5.64 MHz (like the upper model DA-250), a headphone amplifier circuit with remarkably improved drive force and the addition of the LECUA* computerized attenuator as standard. As a digital interface to connect with various devices to reproduce high-resolution sound sources, the DA-150 raises the benchmark for compact D/A converters.
