BMC Audio Ultra Dac BMC (B.M.C.) Audio UltraDac "Excellent Condition"

PRICE REDUCED!! I have up for consideration a mint condition BMC Audio Ultra DAC with very low hours and no flaws. I also have the optional metal remote ($400 value) and a BMC 5-meter USB digital cable ($500 value) that I would consider selling as a package deal. Asking price includes the original BMC plastic remote, software CD, manual, power cord and original box. Resides in a pet, smoke. child free dedicated listening room. Always covered and never in direct sunlight. All you need is an amplifier and one interconnect. Plays DSD64 and DSD128 via the usb connection. The Ultra DAC replaced my BMC DAC1 (HR) which is now obsolete as it does not play DSD files. The Ultra DAC represents BMC's current reference level DAC.

The UltraDAC is a higher grade version of the very successful PureDAC.

An advanced DAC? More exactly, a balanced DAC with reference level headphone and pre-amplifier.

The UltraDAC delivers a digital to analog converter of the highest quality. It combines its DAC with a balanced preamplifier, a reference-level balanced headphone amplifier, and B.M.C.'s exclusive Digital Intelligent Gain Management (DIGM), a volume and amplification control system that calibrates gain without dividing or downgrading the input signal.

The UltraDAC's balanced preamp is integrated with the DAC's current-to-voltage converter, which converts and filters the DAC's current, eliminating the need for an extra stage. The Preamp and headphone amp both employ B.M.C.'s exclusive Load Effect Free (LEF) technology that handles current demand separately from the voltage demand, and naturally avoids distortions, increasing the preamp and amp's quality of its audio reproduction.

UltraDAC benefits from the same features that made the success of PureDAC but going further in the numerical resolution and the final musicality for both, the line output and the amplification headsets.
It is equipped with separate volume controls for the preamp and the headphone, a high-resolution asynchronous USB interface, digital AES/EBU, Toslink and coaxial inputs, balanced analog outputs, RCA output jacks, and a special B.M.C. link for connecting directly to a B.M.C. amplifier. Its balanced output is ideally compatible with amplifiers featuring B.M.C.'s exclusive Current Injection (CI) technology, which enhances signal purity and the musical presence of the UltraDAC's audio reproduction.

Differences from the PureDAC:

◾Top level local clock oscillator with super low phase noise and jitter

◾70% larger power supply for perfect stability under all conditions

◾New hybrid LEF headphone amplifier with 15A bipolar voltage output devices and MOSFET current sources.

◾Vastly improved unbalanced standard headphone output with separate stage.

◾New hybrid LEF line stage with bipolar voltage output devices and MOSFET current sources.

◾SPDIF inputs with full 192kHz support.

◾Quiet cabinet with damping.

◾Operation with fixed line output available.

◾Remote control includes PureAmp functions.

◾Balanced LEF, CI-compatible preamp that optionally operates in B.M.C. Mode, with DIGM and bipolar voltage source combined with a DMOS current source and LEF-balanced output stage.

◾Separate volume controls for the line and headphone sections (the line volume position 59 represents a DAC standard output level)

◾Second-generation DIGM with optimized gain distribution between power amps and internal and DIGM volume levels

◾Optical B.M.C. Link for connecting with B.M.C. amps like the PureAmp

◾Remote Control including PureAmp functions.

I will consider all reasonable offers. The Ultra Dac is rarely ever up for sale on the resale market.

Includes:

Dac, software cd, manual, plastic remote, original box. (optional metal remote in photo not included). This is not a demo or consignment piece. I'm the original owner and have taken great care of this dac. Like new condition!
