Musical Fidelity M6s DAC Digital To Analogue Converter

Description

The Musical Fidelity M6s DAC Digital To Analogue Converter is a 32/768kHz upsampling/reclocking DAC. It has 7 inputs: 3 x Coax, 3 x Optical and 1 x USB. All data rates are accepted up to 32bit 768kHz and DSD 64/128. All inputs are upsampled to 32/768.

The output stage can be configured as fixed/variable and features single ended and balanced outputs. The M6s DAC  includes state-of-the-art components and circuitry which delivers superlative technical and sonic performance. It has exceptional load driving characteristics and will drive any combination of cable/length/electronics flawlessly.

The Musical Fidelity M6s DAC Digital To Analogue Converter’s sonic impression is of effortless grace and transparency. It is so musically integrated that the treble is completely grain free and extended.  The low frequency extension sounds endless with tactile bass dynamics and light speed fast attack and decay. We are of the opinion that the M6s DAC is a phenomenal product and has proven to be a popular partner with Innuos CD-rippers.
