A New Beginning Built on a Long History of DAC Technology

Lina DAC X is both a continuation and a new beginning. Its design combines renowned dCS technologies with new innovations developed for headphone listeners, resulting in a bold new interpretation of the dCS experience, and a complete reimagining of form and function.

With the Lina DAC X, dCS has taken core playback technologies, including the dCS Ring DAC™ and Digital Processing Platform, and added new innovations developed for headphone listeners. These include their first ever touch-screen display, a streamlined user interface for easier navigation.

Stunning Results

The result is a powerful, supremely capable product designed for use in a wide range of environments, from living rooms to studios and workspaces. With its wide dynamic range, crisp and clear playback, expansive soundstage, and tonal neutrality, it provides a deeply natural, highly detailed, and profoundly musical sound that encapsulates dCS' singular approach to audio.

Add unique headphone optimization technology, an elegant and tactile design, and a high-performance streaming platform, and you have a hugely versatile source that delivers spectacular sound however you choose to listen. Designed to inspire, inform and entertain, it will give you a whole new perspective on the artists and recordings you love.
