Paganini Upsampler is designed to act as the hub of a digital audio system and will transform your listening experience, taking your music collection to levels you have not heard before. Accessing music from any digital source, Paganini Upsampler converts the audio from its native sample rate to either DSD (1-bit data at 2.822 MS/s) or standard high resolution PCM (24-bit data up to 192kS/s).

Possessing an array of independently selectable digital inputs, upsampling and filter options, Paganini Upsampler elevates the performance of Red Book CD from CD players or high resolution audio from digital streamers and servers to a previously unsurpassed level.

dCS pioneered the use of external clocks in digital audio systems and the multi-stage Phase-Locked-Loop (PLL) system used in Paganini Upsampler is extremely effective at controlling troublesome jitter from the incoming audio stream.

Paganini Upsampler also features an asynchronous USB input which allows high resolution audio to be played from a computer. In this mode the Upsampler synchronises the audio by providing a feedback pipe to the PC or Mac. The computer’s audio stream is effectively locked to the Upsampler, for dramatically lower jitter.
