\u00abDirectStream Junior is a more-affordable version of the remarkable DirectStream DAC, whose architecture has been awarded Product of the Year in both Stereophile and TAS, Darko Knock-Out award, Editors\u2019 Choice and Golden Ear awards. DirectStream Junior, like its progenitor, is a handwritten, discrete, digital to analog converter that uncovers all the missing information hiding in your audio library. CD\u2019s, high-resolution PCM- or DSD-based media are expertly upsampled in DirectStream Junior to ten times DSD rate and output as pure analog directly into your amplifier or preamplifier. <\/p>\n
Whatever the format, whatever the sample rate, DirectStream Junior provides a pure DSD based solution that fulfills the promise of high-resolution analog performance from digital audio. If you know the sound of music and instruments, and want to hear what\u2019s been missing on your discs, then this DAC is right for you. <\/p>\n
While DirectStream Junior does not share DirectStream\u2019s touch screen, larger power supply, or taller chassis, it does share remarkable performance uncovering all that buried treasure in your digital music collection. Connect DirectStream Junior to your NAS, computer, or favorite internet streaming station through its built in Bridge II, I\u00b2S through an HDMI cable to the PWT (or upcoming DirectStream Transport playing your favorite SACD), or any digital output source, and sit back and relive musical performances few have enjoyed at this price. <\/p>\n
