With digital now being the primary source for many audio enthusiasts, we created the RD-101 DAC to accompany the amps in our Reference Series.
Taking advantage of the technology in our award winning SCD-025 Mk.II, our engineers have managed to squeeze the magic from that unit into a smaller chassis without compromising on quality.
The RD-101 Mk.II utilises the incredible Sabre ES9038PRO 32-bit HyperStream II DAC chip. With up to 140B DNR and -122dB THD+N for unmatched audio clarity, unprecedented dynamic range and ultra-low distortion.
Our ultra low noise power supply regulator offers a vast array of steps to support the DACs potential performance, the RD-101 Mk.II is unparalleled at this price point.
