NuPrime DAC/Preamp - DAC-10

Several notable features:
Five digital and two stereo inputs for system flexibility.
SABRE32 Reference ES9018K2M from ESS Technology is one of the world’s best-performing 32-bit audio DAC solution for high-end consumer applications and professional studio equipment. With ESS’s 32-bit Hyperstream™ DAC architecture and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator, the SABRE32 Reference DAC delivers an unprecedented dynamic range of up to 127dB and THD+N (Total Harmonic Distortion plus Noise) of -120dB, all of which put the DAC-10H at the industry’s cutting edge.
Symmetrical signal processing with exact signal transmission over the entire frequency spectrum and extremely low harmonic distortion, ensuring an unadulterated musical presentation.
Asynchronous transfer mode.
Ultra-low-noise JFETs in the input stage for the lowest possible noise level.
Supports DSD native playback by ASIO2.1 (up to 11.2MHz) and DoP (up to 5.6MHz) method.
Sample Rate Display – 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4, 192, 352.8, 384 kHz and DSD64 to DSD256.
Unique dual gain settings for RCA with 2V or 4V outputs, XLR with 4V or 8V outputs; and each of the balanced and unbalanced headphone outputs with four different high power output settings.
Exclusive driver software for Windows. Standard driver software for Mac.
Headphone Amplifier
Today’s best headphones can cost as much as a high-end DAC.  Their owners demand a headphone amp that fully exploits their potential.  Key features of the headphone amp:

A 4-pin balanced and a standard 6.2mm stereo headphone amplifier outputs. 
Output circuitry designed for use with up to two dynamic headphones. Consistent wiring and the use of XLR-4 sockets ensure excellent channel separation.
A gain switch for use with in-ear, on-ear and over-ear headphones.
Other Features
Linear power supply with multi-rail toroidal transformer.
Independent left/right channel power supplies.
12V trigger output
Full microprocessor control with memory retention
Included remote control for full convenience.
Available in stylish black or silver anodized aluminum finish
