MATRIX Audio X-SPDIF 24bit/192kHz USB Audio Interface DAC, made in China

Link: matrix-digi-usa

The X-SPDIF uses the X-Core 32bit/500MIPS microprocessor from XMOS. The X-Core is the most advanced USB to SPDIF converter available. It supports asynchronous USB playback up to 24bit/192kHz and is fully compatible with Windows, Mac, & Linux. Low latency ASIO/KS drivers are also supported.

The X-SPDIF is CNC machined from solid aluminum to provide complete shielding from interference. This ensures a bit perfect digital output.

The X-SPDIF has digital coaxial and AES/EBU outputs using a very high quality differential protocol line driver chip to achieve absolute signal integrity. The digital outputs are galvanic isolated from the computers USB ground to eliminate any possible ground loops.

The X-SPDIF utilizes a ultra low jitter dual-frequency clock consisting of two very high quality crystal oscillators. Since the clock has separate crystals for 44.1kHz & 48kHz all multiples of these sampling rates are perfectly and automatically reproduced (44.1khz = 88.2khz 176.4khz) & (48khz = 96khz 192khz).

Ultra low jitter is key in reproducing high quality audio and that requires an accurate and stable clock!

Matrix X-Sabre 32bit/384kHz DSD DXD Audio DAC, made in China

The X-SABRE is a high quality D/A converter which support the DSD and DXD signal playback. It used the ESS Technology ES9018 Sabre Reference 32bit chip, and cooperates with XMOS 32BIT/500MIPS high performance digital signal processing unit, make it easy to playback the DXD and the DSD signals via the USB interface. matrix-digi
