The DacMagic Plus has fantastic new features including wireless device connectivity and stunning audio performance from music of all formats. Thanks to twin DACs it instantly improves audio fidelity from all your favourite digital products allowing you to make your computer, TV, Blu-ray player and other devices a true part of your hi-fi system.

PURE PROCESS

The DacMagic Plus works by taking a direct digital audio signal from your computer, TV or other device – bypassing their built-in digital to analogue converters.

This signal is then carefully analysed and upgraded using our ATF2 upsampling system. Once this process is complete, the DacMagic Plus outputs your music as a much purer analogue signal straight to your amplifier.

Custom developed by our dedicated team in the heart of London, DacMagic Plus is totally flexible and supports digital music of all formats. It even allows you to upgrade 24-bit music files stored on your PC for better-than-CD performance from your digital music collection.

Watch the video opposite to find out why our proprietary ATF2 upsampling technology makes such a difference to the sound produced by our DACs.

Improve the sound of your smartphone The Cyrus soundKey uses a top quality DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor) built into an ultra-low power circuit that lets you hugely improve the sound of your smartphone or tablet without rapidly draining the battery. Using a much better DAC than the one built into most smartphones and tablets means music sounds more dynamic, detailed and true-to-life. Compatible with Hi-Res music files A further bonus with the soundKey is that it’s compatible with Hi-Res music files up to 24 bit/96kHz. This means that, as well as MP3 and AAC files, it will also replay your Hi-Res FLAC files. Hi-Res makes the music sound more natural, with subtle detail easier to detect. Ultra-low power consumption A key advantage with this DAC over others is the extremely low power consumption. With a battery drain of less than 50 milliamps – under half the maximum recommended by Apple for use with their iOS devices – the soundKey is kind to your phone’s battery. What this means is a much longer phone battery life than when using other mini-DACs. The device itself is also battery-free. Works with Windows 10, Android 5+ and iOS9+ Compatible with Windows, Android and Apple devices the soundKey is suitable for just about any smartphone. Simply make sure you have the correct USB OTG (On The Go) connection (Apple Camera Kit connection for Apple iOS devices) and you’re good to go. Compact, robust and light Crafted using high quality brushed aluminium, the soundKey is both lightweight and strong. Its sleek design combined with its compact dimensions and mere 18g weight make it perfect for music on the move. Unlock the key to great sound from your smartphone, with the Cyrus soundKey.

Key features of this extraordinary flexible converter are balanced inputs and outputs, monitoring via headphone out, SteadyClock for optimal converter quality, 3-stage hardware input and output level control, and its capability to run on a wide range of power supplied.

Phono preamplifier with A/D converter and USB output

Record Box E: Pure vinyl listening pleasure plus recording functionality!
Record Box E is an high-quality phono preamplifier, that offers the possibility to convert your valuable vinyls into computer music data. Record Box E accepts both MM & MC cartridges and gives audiophile music experience at an entry level price. The integrated A/D converter operates with Windows and MAC operating systems and connects via USB to your computer. Therefore your valuable vinyl collection can be digitised, especially for use in portable music players. Advanced circuitry and SMD construction keep noise and distortion at a surprisingly low level. A built-in internal shielding and an outboard DC power supply leave no risk for external interference. Because of its small casing, Record Box E can be placed near the turntable. Input and output sockets are gold-plated for preservation of quality. Record Box E can be connected easily to a line-input (AUX etc) of your amplifier.

Micro DAC is a USB digital-to-analog (DAC) converter with two outputs, one analog and one digital (optical). Itʼs ideal for converting the audio from your computer into a high-quality analog format without needing to carry anything larger than a flash drive. The sound quality available from the typical headphone jack on a portable device or coming from the standard-issue soundcard found in virtually every computer leaves a lot to be desired.  Micro DAC delivers a marked upgrade in sound quality, compared to just plugging your headphones directly into your unitʼs headphone jack.

Use the 1/8-inch analog output to connect any headphones, and enjoy vibrant high-fidelity sound. There is a gain switch that boosts the signal level, so you can drive even high-impedance headphones to a robust loudness level. And since virtually all high-quality audio equipment has an optical digital input, Micro DACʼs optical digital output is perfect for driving that equipment with a pure digital signal—especially valuable since most computers do not have a digital output.

Micro DAC has a rugged aluminum housing and is USB-bus-powered. Getting professional-quality audio from your computer couldnʼt be easier!

  • Aluminum housing for ruggedness while traveling
  • 1/8" headphone output
  • 1/8" coaxial digital output
  • Gain switch for high-impedance headphones, to easily drive any model
  • Slim, small design for portability
  • Professional audio quality
  • 16-bit/48kHz audio conversion over a USB connection
  • USB-bus-powered
Requirements
  • Windows 7 - Windows 10 Compatible
  • OSx 10.7.5 - 10.11 Compatible

 

ARTSOUND VD-231 HDMI MALE TO VGA FEMALE CONVERTER ADAPTER CABLE This Adapter Cable supports resolutions up to 1920 x 1080 (1080p Full HD) including 720p and 1600 x 1200 for HDTV monitors or projectors. The gold-plated HDMI connectors provide wear and corrosion resistance to ensure a long lifespan. HDMI Male to VGA Female Video Converter Adapter Cable for PC Laptop HDTV Projectors and other HDMI Input Devices:
  • Supports resolutions up to 1920 x 1080 (1080p Full HD) including 720p and 1600 x 1200 for HDTV monitors or projectors
  • Gold-plated HDMI connectors provide wear and corrosion resistance to ensure a long lifespan
  • With this version, we added a standby function to lower the energy consumption
  • On the past design of HDMI to VGA converters, if HDMI port was connected to the device, VGA port will keep working, now, we added an environmental friendly standby function to make sure when there are no signal outputs from VGA, convertor will be at a low energy consumption, in the meanwhile to produce less heats
  • Lower energy consumption, heat-reduced, extends the life of the product; after receiving customer’s feedback that the product will get overheated, we improved the operating current of the product to lower from 220mA to 120mA
  • More stable performance and not easy to skip the screen, we improved the design of chips, mainboard and circuit to make it more stable when transmitting signal
