From Resonessence:

The Invicta was created in part by ESS Sabre DAC engineers.
The ESS Sabre DAC is the world’s highest performance 32-bit audio DAC solution.
2 ESS Sabre DACs used for precise conversion.

SD card reader for seamless high-resolution sound enjoyment without a computer. No computer, no noise added into the loop.
RCA + XLR analog outputs.
High-speed USB, Toslink, BNC, AE5.
Supports all major audio inputs and outputs

Exceptional Value

Engineered with more conveniences than a standard DAC
Adaptable for home use or in the recording studio.
Designed by the chassis designers at IMWorks, and Resonessence engineers intimately familiar with the exceptional ESS Sabre DAC. Designed, produced, and manufactured in Canada.
Provides endless hours of high-fidelity audio playback.
Minimal amounts of noise and distortion and accurate frequency response

The specifications on INVICTA Mirus XLR and RCA outputs exceed those of the regular INVICTA.

Specification of the first batch of MIRUS are now available. We have been able to guarantee significant enhancements:
MIRUS Dynamic Range exceeds 130dB and THD+Noise exceeds 114dB.

INVICTA:

All PCBs have been revised based on our experience with the production of INVICTA over the past two years.
The Headphone output is now generated by the ESS Sabre DAC ES9018 rather than the ES9016 of the first generation.
The front panel is modified to show additional high sample rate LEDs.
DSD (both 64 and 128) is now supported: you can use USB or the SD Card as the data source for DSD programs. We support DFF and DSF formats on the SD Card.
We have doubled the sample rate: you may now provide audio data at up to 384kS/S.
The front panel and the cover are redesigned to highlight the DSD capability and reduce the internal temperature.
We have added a slot in the front panel to increase the IR sensitivity
The unit now operates with the Apple Remote Control
A cosmetic upgrade: the OLED Display is now white rather than the original blue color.

INVICTA Mirus:

Mirus inherits all the improvements of the INVICTA mentioned above.
The headphone module is removed and a second ESS Sabre DAC ES9018 is added to the back-panel XLR and RCA outputs.
This allows a total of eight ES9018 channels for each stereo output. The THD and noise are thereby improved even further than on the INVICTA.

Review excerpts from the Web:

“The Invicta’s most unique feature is having been designed by the team behind the ESS Sabre Chip.”
Srajan Ebaen, 6moons.com. “Full-featured in socketry including the unexpected but brilliant SD card slot whose use eliminates a computer for playback altogether.”
May 2011

“The price is very reasonable considering its status as a state of the art device.”
J.G., Head-fi.org.

Confessions of Part Time Audiophile commenting on Resonessence:

“Resonessence Labs started out with a single product – the flagship Invicta DAC.
That model remains my reference, and is one of the best DACs I’ve experienced at any price.”

“the crew at Resonessence Labs are some of the most responsive I’ve yet encountered in this industry.”

“So let’s recap for a minute here. Concero HD. Tiny USB powered DAC with bleeding edge ESS Sabre chip, advanced format support, selectable upsampling with proprietary filters, excellent build quality, and bonus USB to SPDIF functionality. All for under a grand. Its simplicity and size make it highly transportable, while its sound quality makes it plenty capable for home use. Another giant slayer from Resonessence Labs? Absolutely. Highly recommended.”

John Grandberg - Confessions of Part Time Audiophile, October 5th 2013

“Let’s cut to the chase: the Invicta is one of the three best experiences I’ve heard with DSD sources.The Invicta is at the top level of DSD; close to a mastertape.”

Lynn Olson – January 2013 – Positive Feedback

”The Resonessence Labs Invicta DAC rang most of my listening preferences bells & whistles like a champ. I found it neither too hot, nor too cold. “Which is to say if you’re looking for a DAC (and preamp and dual headphone amp) to connect you to your music in a wonderfully transparent and engrossing way, I would point you to the Resonnessence Labs Invicta without reserve or hesitation.” There, I said it again.”
