PS Audio Perfectwave DACII BLACK

For sale ps audio perfectwave DACII purchased two of these and I am only keeping one of them. This is the absolute best dac I have owned in my system.

One of the World's Best DACs Gets Even Better!

PS Audio's PerfectWave DAC set a new benchmark for digital-to-analog conversion in the audiophile world. Now, PS Audio has exceeded its own impossibly high standards with the release of the PerfectWave DAC MkII. With an impressive array of updates to an already-proven design, the PWD MkII represents a major step forward for the world of digital audio.

MkII Updates Include:
A new Native X digital lens reduces incoming jitter levels to below 1 pico second for a smoother, analog-like sound.
Asynchronous USB connectivity capable of 24 bit/192kHz performance and uncompromized sound quality.
11 new local power supplies for lower noise, jitter and talk-back, and an increased openness to the sound.
Lowered jitter clocks provide audible improvements in improved upper harmonics of instruments and a reduction in digital glare.
A balance control, capable of shifting the balance between left and right in small 1/10th of a dB increments to customize the sound for your room.
High-Speed Analog Switches in the digital path do not go into saturation mode, do not add jitter or timing issues and produce a life-like, natural analog-like presentation to the music.
The new digital processing board has 10dB lower emitted radiated digital noise than its predecessor.
The PWD is a reference-level outboard DAC, designed to mate with the PS Audio Perfect Wave Transport. The PWD sets a new standard for DACs at any price. Not only does it look gorgeous, the PWD is one of the most “analog-like” in its sonic signature. Paired with the PS Audio PWT, this combination sounded like a digital system for ten times the cost! The DAC will decode almost any sampling rate and offers many different up-sampling options, although it seems to sound best at standard 16bit/44.1kHz through PS Audio's ingenious i2s over HDMI connection with the PWT. Eventually, PS Audio will release products for hard-drive storage in a matching chassis, making this DAC and transport the hub for one of the most ambitious music server systems ever developed by an audiophile manufacturer.
