Key Features
The Pre2 DAC separates the pre amp into its own chassis and provides a dedicated power supply which means the pre amp can resolve more detail. Complete with a built-in DAC, the pre amp is compatible with a very wide range of sources such as CD players, streamers or your TV digital audio out.
The Pre2 DAC offers a sonic step up in performance from our integrated amplifiers. This is achieved because the pre amplifier circuitry has its own power supply. The internal power supply provides isolation from the demands of other system elements, making available an additional level of dynamics and resolution. The digital section also sounds better for the same reasons, especially when used with the optional Qx card, the audio quality rises further still.

Six analogue inputs, a high quality headphone amplifier, Zone 2 and pre amplifier output give the Pre2 DAC flexibility for connecting a wide variety of audio devices. There is also a PSX-R port on the Pre2 DAC allowing connectivity of the instant upgrade off-board power-supply.
The Pre2 DAC features a high performance 24/192 DAC bringing optical and coaxial inputs and a driverless USB connection allowing plug and play connectivity to a PC or Laptop. This DAC can be further upgraded to ‘Qx’ specification bringing in up sampling DAC design from the DAC XP Signature.

The microprocessor controlled operating system in the Pre2 DAC allows extensive programming of many functions within the unit. Input naming, differing display readouts and input volume matching across all sources are just some of the possibilities.
