DAC IV, IV+, AND V - AVAILABLE UPGRADES
MSB Technology DAC IV, IV+, and V - Available Upgrades
Signature Volume Control
Our Preamp philosophy is based on the belief that from the moment analog audio is created, every transition that is made degrades the quality. This is why we have used a passive attenuator within the Signature DAC V and a single OpAmp, to achieve the simplest, shortest possible signal path with the least possible degradation of the true music. The Signature Volume is controlled in 1 dB steps from +9 to -69 dB. Half or quarter db steps can be selected as a menu option. The Volume Control is completely bypassed when at 0 dB.
Diamond Volume Control
This upgrade over the signature volume control includes hand crafted shielding with lower noise measurements.
Input Expansion Card (Pro I2S)
This input board provides a ground isolated MSB Network input ideal for connection to the Universal Media Transport and Data CD IV transport as well as a second PRO I2S input.
*Uses 1 of 2 AUX ports
DAC V Renderer
This input board provides a network renderer and pro I2S input for the DAC V. With this option you can stream music directly to the DAC V without a computer – always bit-perfect.
Replaces Pro I2S Input board and supports the Quad Rate USB Input.
*Uses 1 of 2 AUX ports
USB II – Signature 384kHz Input
The USB2 Signature 384 upgrade will play all files up to 384 kHz with excellent quality, and play DSD up to 128x.
*Uses 1 of 2 AUX ports
Clock Output Adapter
This adapter plugs into a PRO I2S input or the older MSB Network (either the one found on the DAC or one created with the PRO I2S input card below). It provides a master clock output suitable to slave a transport or server.
The clock output is a 512x master clock at LVDS level. It is approved for use with the Aurender Server. (It can also be used as a clock input.)
