The Boulder 808 ranks between the 508 and 1108 models and is designed for vinyl system owners who need a more serious analog path without switching to older and larger Boulder components. The model is made in the same style as the 812 DAC/Preamp and 861 Stereo Power Amp, and special attention is paid to shielding, internal layout, mechanical rigidity and noise reduction.
