Built to mark Accuphase's 50th year, the DC-1000 is the company's reference digital processor. It runs the ES9038 PRO as an 8MDSD converter for DSD and 8MDS++ for PCM, driving eight channels in parallel to deliver close to three times the performance of a single-channel implementation. ANCC noise cancelling and parallel signal amplification, both refined in Accuphase's amplifier development, take the noise floor to a level where very low-level detail simply appears rather than being dug out.Key features MDSD / MDS++ D/A converter driving 8 parallel channels using ANCC Dual Direct Balanced Filter with completely separate line and balanced signals Separate toroidal transformers for analog and digital circuits Separate low noise power supply circuits for analog and digital circuits Display with sampling frequency and number of quantization bits Output level adjustments that can control different outputs from other players Digital interface for Accuphase Voicing Equalizer Abundant digital inputs like USBs, etc. to connect with computers (HS-LINK, USB, OPTICAL × 2, COAXIAL × 3, BALANCED) Digital outputs that can be used in digital recording (OPTICAL, COAXIAL) 2 (BALANCED, LINE) analog outputs Specifications Model: DC-1000 Designation: Precision MDSD Digital Processor Brand: Accuphase (Japan) Warranty: 5 years, Australian delivered stock Supplied with Accuphase's 5-year Australian warranty covering manufacturing faults and labour, valid on units purchased through authorised Australian retailers.
