You can tell by the differences in our systems that my and Bruce's tastes in audio are nowhere near the same—yet we agreed about these DACs. For both of us, a DAC is about transparency and control, and the Peachtree iDac's sound was the most honest of all the DACs we've heard that cost a grand or less.
Now it’s easy to bring your preamplifier, receiver or integrated amplifier into the “computer age” with the Peachtree Audio iDac. The iDac is a stand-alone DAC featuring a PURE DIGITAL iPod dock, delivering nothing but “1’s” and “0’s” from your iPod directly to its highresolution digital-to-analog converter. The iDac has four additional high-resolution digital inputs for your computer, Apple TV, cable box, Sonos or anything else that’s digital. The improvement in all of your digital sources is guaranteed to be nothing less than startling!
High-Resolution Digital Audio The iDac features a 24bit/96kHz high-resolution USB input for audio from your computer. Until now, recording engineers were the only group to hear music at this resolution on a regular basis. Now you can, too. The iDac is plug-n-play, so you‘ll never have to search the web for elusive, hard-to-install USB drivers. The setup is simple and will easily outperform your redbook CD player—all from the the computer you use every day! When you experience the 24bit/192kHz resolution available through the iDac’s coaxial and optical inputs, you enter a whole new world! It’s like 3D for your ears—finally approaching the open musicality of vinyl records, but with a signal-to-noise ratio that a turntable could never match. Even standard mp3 recordings take on a new life and sound better than you’ve ever heard them!
Video The iDac includes both component and S–video outputs. Place your iPod into the dock and watch TV shows, movies, YouTube all on your HDTV. Or gather ‘round after a big day and watch the movies you’ve created on the fly with your new iPod touch. Add just the right playlist for atmosphere, and enjoy home movies like never before!
