The D/AC-1600 HD is designed to deliver incomparable musical detail from any digital source. You will enjoy the warmth and depth that are usually associated only with the finest analog sources. In addition to its high-quality components, triple power supplies, high current analog drive stages, the D/AC-1600HD incorporates the High Definition Compatible Digital PMD-100 HDCD process de-coder developed by Pacific Microsonics. This state-of-the-art decoder performs precise decoding of HDCD encoded recordings and also functions as a superb digital filter that will enhance the sonic quality of non-HDCD encoded recordings
