The Deckard is a versatile audio device that serves as a headphone amplifier, DAC, and line-level preamp. It is crafted with a brushed aluminum finish and features beautifully machined heatsinks, designed by BMW's Designworks. The amplifier provides 4 watts of power with low distortion, making it suitable for driving headphones with impedances from 20 to 300 ohms. It includes three gain settings (0dB, 10dB, and 20dB) and supports both analog and digital inputs.
