Atoll Electronique DAC300 DAC

Atoll Electronique DAC300 Signature Converter

The Atoll Electronique DAC300 Signature Converter is distinguished by a careful design, which implements a dual power supply – for digital and analog circuits – to reduce interference. The output stages in balanced configuration employ discrete components while the audio links use high quality MKP capacitors. This DAC also benefits from very good manufacturing quality, with a thick steel frame and a brushed aluminum front panel. The Atoll DAC300 DAC implements dual power supply – for digital and analog circuitry – to reduce interference.

Atoll DAC300: 32 bit / 768 kHz
The Atoll DAC300 DAC is an audiophile solution for exploiting digital audio files from a computer, in particular studio quality up to 32 bits and 768 kHz. Its asynchronous USB port, coupled with a powerful internal synchronization clock, contributes to reducing the distortion of the streamed digital stream. Ideally, such a DAC should be used with software compatible with the ASIO protocol (Foobar2000 under Windows and Audirvana under Mac OS).

Finally, Bluetooth wireless streaming is possible with the Atoll DAC300.44
