Audio Note Fifth Element/Force
The Audio Note Fifth Element digital-to-analog converter is without a doubt the best DAC we have ever produced. As expected, we did not use third-party developments in the design of the circuit or the components used, and this is a full-fledged Audio Note Level 5 product.

Audio Note DAC 4.1x
CD-4.1x is a completely new CD player that has no analogues in the audio industry. It uses a Two/II CD transport with an upgraded DAC from the CD-2.1x Mk.II, on the digital printed circuit board there are Audio Note tantalum resistors and Black Gate capacitors, on the output stage there are Audio Note capacitors made of copper foil.

Audio Note DAC 3.1x/II Balanced
Audio mark DAC3.1x V2-it does not have excessive sampling, does not reduce jitter, does not generate noise and does not perform re-synchronization. After removing all digital filtering necessary for over-sampling, all filtering is performed in the analog domain, where it is easier to maintain good broadband phase and dynamic coherent behavior.
