The Denafrips Terminator 15th DAC is a high-end digital-to-analog converter engineered for exceptional audio quality. It features a proprietary R2R + DSD architecture, offering true balanced 26BIT R2R and 6BIT DSD capabilities with 32 steps FIR filters. The DAC includes precision R-2R network arrays with matched thin film resistors of 0.005% accuracy. It is powered by dual O-core AC transformers made from high-purity gold, silver, and copper alloys, ensuring clean power and isolated digital/analogue sections to reduce noise. The device incorporates oven-controlled crystal oscillators (OCXO) for ultra-low phase noise and exceptional accuracy, housed in a robust metal casing with a shielded power supply. It supports various inputs including USB, I²S, AES/EBU, and offers DSD1024 and PCM1536 capabilities. The Terminator 15th DAC is designed with complete isolation between the digital processing board and R-2R ladder network arrays, enhancing the signal-to-noise ratio for a pristine audio experience.
