DACs

Digital to Analogue Converters (DACs) let you access your digital media library with headphones. Modern audio signals are usually stored in a digital format, in order to be heard through headphones they must be converted into an analogue signal. Most inbuilt DACs in computers are of inadequate quality. A separate DAC is the perfect music interface between a PC, other digital devices and headphones for achieving superior sound conversion. Chord, Musical Fidelity and Oppo all offer DACs that will massively increase the quality of your digital playback.
