Ypsilon Electronics DAC 100

Ypsilon DAC 100 in near perfect condition. In my experience, the best DAC I have heard and I have listened to or demoed the following...DCS Vivaldi, MSB Select DAC, Berkeley Reference, Esoteric P1 / D1, P2 / D2 and Light Harmonic...just to name a few. Ypsilon is not known for their digital but I can tell you that is among the very best at any price point. Only selling because I have upgraded to the new DAC 1000 SE. I will include a new set of tubes. I also have the latest Tara Labs Evolution SPIDF Digital Cable that I will be selling separately which is available as well...which again in my experience is the best digital cable I have heard. Also selling the Ypsilon CDT 100 Transport as well, that when paired with the DAC and utilizing the One Neutric 5 – pin analog current input the digital part of the DAC is disabled and is powered off. Only the analog section is used. By using this 5-pin connector the signal
is transferred to the analogue section of the DAC-100 at an absolute
optimum sonic capacity avoiding possible limitations of digital
interfacing. A combination that rivals only the absolute best reference analog setups. Add 3.5% for Paypal. Certified bank check preferred.


DAC
100 is our D to A converter. It is a non – oversampling, no upsampling
design with multi – bit dac chips. The carefully designed power supply
is with shunt regulators. I / V conversion is done by a specially
designed, built in house, transformer. Τhe analog stage uses
single-ended class A transformer coupled triodes with valve
rectification and choke regulation .

The valves are the high mu, high transconductance, low noise SIEMENS NOS tubes.

There are two available inputs:

• SPDIF coaxial 75 Ω with next gen connector.
  
  This input can be used with CDT – 100 or other high quality transports.
• One Neutric 5 – pin analog current input for use with CDT100.

When this input is used with CDT-100
the digital part of the dac is disabled and is powered off. Only the
analog section is used. With CDT-100 we strongly recommend the use of
this input for optimum performance.

By using this 5-pin connector the
signal is transferred to the analogue section of the DAC-100 at an
absolute optimum sonic capacity avoiding possible limitations of digital
interfacing.

All transformers are designed and built
in house using the best available materials and are wound with
sophisticated techniques for a totally transparent sound.

The transformers are of enormous size in order to achieve the absolute performance we seek.

We believe that DAC – 100 reaches limits of digital reproduction and can rival only even analogue sources.

The DAC-100 D/A converter is also 24bit/192Khz capable used in high resolution digital sources.
