The DAC unit in the model is built on two top-end ES9039PRO chips from ESS Sabre, each of which is responsible for its own channel. The preamp provides a signal gain of +10 dB, and two analog outputs are provided for connection to a power amplifier or active speaker systems – unbalanced on RCA and balanced on XLR.
