LWA Staff Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 Further Information: Today we have an Auralic Vega D/A processor in excellent secondhand condition. This is a beautifully finished, highly sophisticated DSD/DXD-capable (2.8MHz as well as 5.6MHz) Audio Processor. At it's core it can upsample all incoming PCM signals to 32bit 1,5MHz before converting to analog. This upsampling allows for digital filtering at much higher frequencies. Inputs are USB, toslink, AEX/AUB and 2x Coaxial digital. Output signal is available on XLR. AES/EBU and coaxial inputs accept up to 24/192 and USB input accepts any signal including double rate, 5.6mHz DSD and DXD (32bit 384kHz PCM). Impressively, the Vega includes a Femto clock and has a Class A output stage.
