Cover All your Bases
The DAC204-MK2 is a multi-format digital-to-analogue and digital-to-digital converter. Its many input and output options make it equally useful for use in a professional mixing or mastering studio as for an audiophile-grade listening room.
It now employs a redesigned DAC section: a new ES9028PRO chip featuring an advanced jitter-elimination circuit, plus an optimized output stage. The distortion figures and reconstruction filters have been fine-tuned by ear for an optimal sonic experience.
Digital Accepted Here
The DAC204-MK2 accepts incoming digital audio streams straight from any USB-equipped computer, tablet, or mobile phone. It can also receive S/PDIF and AES/EBU audio via its S/PDIF or Toslink connectors.
Outgoing Audio
The DAC204-MK2 converts the incoming digital streams to analogue audio, which simultaneously appears on its balanced XLR connectors and unbalanced RCA connectors.
It can also perform digital-to-digital conversion and output digital audio in AES/EBU or S/PDIF formats through the corresponding connectors and a BNC output connector.
Should the incoming audio be in DSD format, the DAC204-MK2 can convert that to PCM.
Stay Connected
The DAC204-MK2 can be permanently connected to multiple digital units, and the user can easily switch between them with the front-mounted Input Selector switch.
Product Comparison
The DAC204-MK2 is the bigger sibling to the DAC205-MK2. The two units offer the same conversion quality, but the DAC204-MK2 has a USB input and can convert DSD to PCM audio.
Both the DAC204-MK2 and DAC205-MK2 remain affordable alternatives to higher-grade units such as the DAC501 and HELIOS. They do not have the onboard digital processing capabilities of those units, nor do they include headphone outputs or remote controls.
