The pinnacle of digital audio technology

The DS-1000 EVO is the most advanced streaming DAC we have ever designed. It combines advanced digital-to-analog technology solutions with our unique expertise in delivering a compelling sound quality, or as we call it: the Italian Sound, the suono italiano.
At the heart of the DS-1000 EVO is the dual-mono D/A converter, powered by two AKM AK4493 converters to ensure the highest sound fidelity is always maintained during the conversion phase, with virtually no crosstalk between channels. Streaming is as simple as pressing the play button on Tidal or connecting your computer via USB cable thanks to Tidal Connect – no audio file presents a problem: PCM (up to 32bit/384kHz) and DSD (up to DSD512) are supported.

The design is rounded off by a Class-A output stage with discrete, audiophile-grade components selected for our unique Italian sound.
