Questyle CMA 800i Pre-Amplifier, Headphone Amplifier, DAC (Silver)

CMA800i Current Mode Amplification on HP Amp and CAS192D. True DSD & PCM 192K/24bit, IIR /FIR digital filter, Wolfson WM8741 chip,  Individual Pre-Amp output, supports Pure HP Amp mode.

Unlike other DACs that claim DSD support yet in actuality provide DoP (DSD over PCM), the Questyle Audio CMA800i accepts the DSD bit-stream directly from your computer, bypassing your computer’s audio processing and digital volume control as well as the Questyle Audio CMA800i’s digital filters, to provide True DSD, the way it was meant to be heard, without requiring expensive difficult to install proprietary connectors, or as is the case with DoP breaking up the bit-stream into 16bit packets and compressing them into a PCM data-stream and then uncompressing them at the other end, buffering them, then reassembling the bit-stream so that it may be sent to the DAC as DSD, all of which requires an extreme amount of processing at both the computer end and the DAC end to perform in real-time (which invariably leads to latency, data loss, etc), not to mention a 33% increase in bandwidth requirements for the USB ports and cabling.
