Overview

Unique Product - a Preamp or a DAC?

This product has the option to be a unique combination of a very high performance DAC andthe ultimate passive preamp. It is intended to be used as both for the best possible sound in your system. Our preamp philosophy is based on the belief that from the moment analog audio is created, every transition that is made degrades the quality. That means that an active preamp with many stages if perfect would have no effect and any imperfection would result in degradation of
the music. That is why we offer a passive preamp within the DAC IV, to achieve the simplest, shortest possible signal path, with the least possible degradation of the true music.

The Volume Control Upgrade

The DAC IV has one analog input with the option for a second, and many digital inputs. It is designed to be the last component in your system before the amplifiers. With its incredibly low impedance, especially for a passive preamp, it can drive long interconnects and handle any type of amplifier input stage design with optimum performance.

Depending on how many analog sources you have in your system, you may be able to eliminate your current preamp. If you currently have only CD and vinyl in your system, you would attach your CD players digital output to the DAC IV and the output of your phono preamp to the analog input. Your system is now complete, with the shortest possible signal path and the best sound you can achieve. The same idea applies to use with an SACD or Universal player. The MSB Universal Player provides the highest quality SACD playback via the MSB Network.

If you have a complex system with a preamp with many analog inputs, attach the outputs of your preamp to the input on the DAC IV. Shift any digital sources over to digital inputs on the DAC IV and again, you will achieve optimum results. Set your preamp to a volume that matches the DAC IV output and use nothing but the DAC IV volume control in your system.
