The I35 DAC is an integrated amplifier with built-in DAC from Primare, sharing the I35's staggering output power with the addition of digital conversion. The I35 DAC brings Primare's more accomplished current engineering to a complete, feature-rich integrated chassis.
Key specs that matter
Two balanced XLR inputs and three single-ended inputs are provided, matching the I35. Output power is 150W into 8 ohms, rising to 300W into 4 ohms, matching the I35 exactly. At 430 x 106 x 420mm and 11kg, the I35 DAC shares the I35's chassis dimensions and mass exactly, with the addition of a built-in DAC.
Sound and use context
Expect the accurate, minimalist character Primare's broader Scandinavian catalogue is celebrated for, with the staggering 300W-into-4-ohms output combined with the built-in DAC covering digital sources directly.
Pairing
The built-in DAC covers digital sources directly without needing a separate outboard converter.
Alternatives
Primare's own I35 Prisma offers a related model with added networked streaming within the same broader I35 catalogue.
