exaSound Audio Design e22 DAC

Exciting Dynamic Sound

exaSound Audio Design flagship model, the e22 is a third generation DSD256 DAC. It offers the highest digital audio resolution available on the market today. e22 has vanishingly low jitter, distortion and noise levels, and astonishingly clean analog-like sound. The difference is obvious from the first listening impression - even with an ordinary CD.

The e22 DAC is very neutral, and the more resolving the system, the better it can perform. With the very high quality studio masters you will hear the music as it was recorded - nothing added, nothing taken away.

Compared to the e20, the e22 DAC offers 82fs Femto-Master-Clock, headphone amplifier that is twice as powerful, even lower noise and distortion levels, 12V Trigger Output, classic USB connector, and heavy-duty RCA connectors.
