M2Tech Young DSD DAC Newly Upgraded DSD DAC from M2Tech, the Young DSD DAC is Remarkable in its Resolving Prowess and its Sonic Characteristics The newly developed, upgraded M2Tech Young DSD DAC is a very serious tool for all high-resolution computer audio sources. This remarkable DAC (digital-to-analog converter) is capable of handling PCM up to 32bit/384k and DSD up to x128. It features a USB Audio Device Class 2 interface to transfer high resolution audio from any computer. Legacy S/PDIF, AES/EBU and optical inputs are also provided, which handle both PCM (up to 192/24) and DSD64. The Young DSD inherits the original Young's proprietary oversampling scheme for PCM, based on a FPGA (field programmable gate array). A 32bit DAC circuit is used in an unconventional mode to allow for 705.6/768kHz internal operation in PCM and 5.6448MHz in DSD. The synergy between the DAC and the custom oversampling technology allows for both an exceptionally low noise floor and immeasurable distortion levels. A high resolution analog volume control with a digital control is also on board. To avoid inserting too many stages on the signal path which could reduce the sound quality, a unique passive anti-alias filter is used in place of a typical op-amp buffer, in combination with a special current mode offset cancellation circuit, which makes I/V converter operate with greater symmetry and lower THD. Output voltage can be set to suit the needs of any device downstream of the Young DSD, be it a preamplifier, a high sensitivity solidstate power amplifier or a low-sensitivity tube amplifier. Both balanced and single ended (using the stock adapters) outputs are available. A fully-loaded remote control allows you to easily operate the Young DSD from your room's sweet spot. HID protocol is also enabled over USB, allowing you to control the computer player with the dedicated keys on the remote control. What does all this mean? Its pretty technica
