Nagra Tube DAC

Nagra Tube DAC

Un commentaire de HifiPig sur le salon Hifi de Munich, en 2023 :

« A real ear and eye catching system again this year from two of the classic names of the uber high end. Nagra had last year’s Reference Anniversary turntable and the big news was their new DAC. Nagra’s newest digital offering, the Nagra Classic DAC II, features the same NADM (NagraAudio Digital Module) digital engine employed in both the Nagra HD DAC X and TUBE DAC, and accommodates all current high resolution formats such as DSD 4x (256) and DXD. Other highlights include an output stage featuring discrete topology in pure Class A and an improved built-in power supply along with the option to connect a Nagra external reference power supply.
There was also a soon-to-be-released HD phono stage, a Nagra Reference MC phono cartridge, and a Nagra IV-S tape machine all feeding a pair of Wilson Alexx V speakers and two Wilson LOKE subwoofers. » – HifiPig
