Burr-Brown DAC

The Hip DAC2 is an excellent solution to accompany a smartphone, tablet or computer and ensure a beautiful sound reproduction. The connection is simply via USB-A for the source. The selected Burr-Brown DAC chip and its True Native architecture allow the Hip DAC to offer beautiful musicality, regardless of the type of stream, be it bit-perfect PCM, native DSD or MQA.

The improved clock makes it possible to eradicate the jitter, using the system GMT Femto Precision of the mark. This technology makes it possible to preserve the integrity of the digital signal for a particularly faithful restitution.

High quality architecture

The Hip DAC2's amplifier circuitry is fully balanced. All audio circuitry uses high quality components, carefully selected for their performance in audio use. These include a custom OV AOP, TDK C0G Class 1 ceramic capacitors, a low noise power supply circuit and a high quality volume control.

The Hip DAC2's amplifier stage is capable of delivering 400mW of power at 32Ω, ensuring compatibility with many headphones and earphones on the market. Even high-impedance headphones can be paired with it, thanks to an output voltage of 6.3V under 600Ω (balanced output).

Efficient connectivity

The Hip DAC2 has two USB ports. The first, in USB-A format, allows the transfer of audio data, while the second, in USB-C format, is used for charging. Two outputs are also available: a 3.5mm jack for a single-ended connection and a 4.4mm jack for a balanced connection. The 3.5mm jack output benefits from the brand's proprietary S-Balanced technology, improving its performance by reducing crosstalk and distortion by half.
