Meitner Audio MA-1 DAC

Ed Meitner's new company Meitner Audio first product is a 24/192khz MA-1 Stereo DAC which will be available for US$6,750 which is way lower than his previous creations at EMM Labs.  

The Meitner MA-1 supports sampling rates from 44.1 to 192 kHz at word lengths up to 24 bits through all six digital inputs and it complies with the USB Class 2 audio interface standard.  MFAST (Meitner Frequency Acquisition System) high-speed asynchronous technology decouples input from output.

Meitner Digital Audio Translator (MDAT) upsamples digital audio to 5.6 MHz (double the SACD standard sampling rate). Standard-setting MDAC dual differential discrete D-to-A (not based on generic OEM D/A chip), and MCLK high-purity master clock modules are included in this design. Digital inputs include USB, AES/EBU via XLR, two optical TosLink, and two S/PDIF on RCA jacks. Stereo analog outputs include stereo balanced via XLR and unbalanced via RCA.
