About the MHDT Paradisea
The MHDT Paradisea is a non-oversampling DAC built around the 16-bit/44.1 kHz Philips TDA1545A converter. Its analog stage uses an LM4562 operational amplifier for active I/V conversion followed by a 5670-family vacuum-tube buffer. Depending on the production version, digital inputs include coaxial, optical, and USB; USB replaced BNC on later versions. The Paradisea uses a dark acrylic-style enclosure and supports tube rolling with compatible 5670/2C51-family tubes. It is known for a smooth, spacious, and musical presentation rather than strict modern high-resolution neutrality.
