Description
Audiowise SRC•DX is USB 2.0 class-compliant for plug-and-play operation with Windows, macOS and Linux—powered by the 5V USB port. A push-button selects standard or high level for signal compatibility with all DACs. Status LEDs indicate single-coax or dual-coax mode of operation. BNC connections ensure reliable transmission of high-speed digital audio.
SRC•DX™ is a revelation for software upscaling: a low RF noise USB to single or dual-coax S/PDIF bridge supporting 705.6/768kHz PCM thats fully compatible with FPGA-based upsamplers and high-end music servers. Eschewing a direct USB-to-DAC interface means the DAC’s USB receiver chip is turned off—resulting in less internally generated RF noise. S/PDIF’s self-clocking protocol is inherently much simpler than USB. SRC•DX’s low power consumption lowers RF noise further still. This helps to elevate the quality of server-based sources so that PGGB, HQPlayer, Roon and other capable software can sound as good as possible.
Frequently used to simultaneously drive both BNC inputs on Chord Dave, Hugo TT2 and Qutest DACs to allow HQPlayer running in conjunction with our servers to give greatest upscaling capability (similar to MScaler, at a lower cost). Contact us for more details. Also works with Audirvana/HQPlayer and some other software.
