Heed DACTILUS
Digital To Analog converter
Thank you for choosing our product!
In designing the Heed DACTILUS, our aim was to create a DAC
which makes any digital component – CD- and DVD-players,
computer servers (Squeezebox, AirPort), DAB tuners, etc. –
more enjoyable to listen to: less analytical and less processed,
conveying music in a fluid, natural, and rhythmically engaging
fashion. The DACTILUS embodies our belief that while digital
sources needn't sound digital, they can sound musical!
We sincerely hope that you will agree, and that your DACTILUS
will provide you with many years of impeccable, trouble-free
Operation.
Happy listening!
The Heed Team
The functions and operation of the DACTILUS are extremely simple and
straightforward. The following notes are provided to explain all aspects of
its installation and use, primarily as DAC (digital to analog converter) but
also in general as a domestic audio component.
Please read them carefully.
