Weiss DAC 501

The DAC501 is our new state of the art D/A converter with an unprecedented level of sophistication and versatility.

With the DAC501 we are creating a new paradigm for what used to be a black box decice. A typical D/A Converter is a "set and forget" device. Not so with the DAC501. It adds a number of interesting signal processing features and sports a variety of digital inputs. Balanced, unbalanced and headphone outputs are provided.

Weiss engineering has a 30 year history in D/A converter design. In that time span we have learned a thing or two about converter design. The DAC501 is the essence of our experiences.
