Musical Fidelity M1 DAC
The new Musical Fidelity M1 DAC has four digital inputs; coax, optical, balanced and USB.
The Musical Fidelity M1DAC will lock on to any S/P diff signal at; 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88kHz, 96kHz and 192kHz. The input sampling frequency is displayed on the front panel.
The Musical Fidelity M1 upsamples to 24-bit at 192kHz. This is genuine true upsampling.
The Musical Fidelity M1 DAC Asynchronous 24 bit DAC has vanishingly low distortion, typically less than 0.005% across the band. Frequency response is ruler flat. Jitter is extremely low. The noise ratio is outstanding, one of the quietest DACs in the world regardless of price. Looking at the Musical Fidelity M1DAC Asynchronous 24bit DAC's total measurements and comparing them to any DAC up to ten times its price you will see that, on balance, the Musical Fidelity M1DAC is equal to or better than any.
The Musical Fidelity M1 DAC has a high quality power supply. Interestingly it has choke filtration on the mains input. This, effectively, is a mains signal conditioner which increases the performance and value of the M1 Dac to even greater heights.
