DAC5 Special
Owner's Information
The DAC5 Special is a Level 5 digital to analogue
converter, developed for the best possible sonic
performance rather than technical specifications. To this
end, the DAC incorporates thermionic valve technology
to produce the most accurate sound possible and has
been brought to maturity through a development process
we call comparison by contrast, which is currently
unique to Audio Note. The article from which this
technique is based, named 'Audio Hell', is available
from Audio Note by request.
Please read this manual carefully in order to obtain the
best possible performance from your DAC. Audio Note
wishes you many happy years of listening pleasure.
