"The EMM Labs DAC2X announced itself in my system with a muscular and, dare I say, masculine sound. Control, crystal clear clarity, and the ability to dig into and pull out what sounds like every last ounce of the recorded music [...]". AudioStream  

Description The DAC2X is the two-channel reference d/a converter from EMM Labs. Not only it is equipped with a multitude of input options, it's the first converter to feature EMM Labs proprietary Meitner Frequency Acquisition System Technology (MFAST) .

The DAC2X features MDAT up-converting DSP, MFAST jitter removal system, MCLK master clock and Ed Meitner’s hand built 5.6Mhz proprietary discrete dual differential D-to-A converters.   

The DAC2X also features a multitude of inputs allowing host of connectivity options and support for up to 24bit, 192kHz on all PCM inputs including USB. The DAC2X also supports true DSD streaming over USB.

AudioStream

"The DAC2X is a very captivating music maker. If you like to listen to all manner of music in all manner of formats including streaming, and you want it all to sound stunning, muscular where called for, incisive, powerful, with superb clarity and edge-of-your-seat dynamics, the EMM Labs DAC2X has what you're looking or longing for."

Computer Audiophile

"The updated emm Labs DAC2X is much better than the DAC2X I reviewed and loved back in 2012. Both for technical reasons and sonic reasons the 2X is like a new DAC when compared to the previous iteration. The technically sound MDAT2 DSP and hardware updates enabled me to hear a much more focussed version of my music than previously available in the same DAC. I noticed improved soundstage, clarity, and detail without losing a note of musicality. The updated emm Labs DAC2X is a digital to analog converter capable of satisfying the most demanding PCM and DSD music lovers. (Even more) Highly recommended."
