151 Power DAC Mini
Sale, Save $400.00. Now only $799.00
The Wadia 151 is a wonderful $1199.00 integrated amp that Wadia calls a Power DAC. Is really a digital integrated amp with DAC, 50 watts per channel amp (75 watts into 4 ohms) and a volume control. The amps is quite good and puts out 200 watt peaks into 4 ohm loads.
The 151 uses a scaled-down version of proprietary Wadia DigiMaster, and DirectConnect technologies for pristine reconstruction and amplification of all your digital sources. Four selectable digital inputs including USB, Toslink, and (2) coax S/PDIF provide plenty of opportunity to connect a computer, CD transport or player used as a transport, Music Server, games, cable box and any other digital audio sources, as well as an iPod transport.
Housed in a black (or silver) aluminum chassis, with an LED backlit display and discrete control buttons on its face, the151PowerDAC mini will complement any media room, office, man-cave or kitchen. Control is accomplished with a trim, aluminum IR remote, with all of your input, volume and iPod commands laid out in logical sequence.
All inputs, excluding the USB (24-bit/96kHz), input can accept up to a 24-bit/192kHz input data rate. Once the data enters the system, our data sampling technology uses a spline interpolation algorithm to up-sample all incoming data to 24 bit/ 384kHz for high performance conversion. The algorithm reduces interpolation error and creates highly accurate representations of the original performance. Up-sampled and filtered data, it is incorporated into the digital amplifier stage and managed by the DirectConnect digital volume control. This allows the data to still remain in the digital domain while additional current is applied to the signal in a manner that optimizes transient response and minimizes distortion.
The 151 is normally $1199 and we have them on sale at only $799.00
