Specifikationer och beskrivning:

The new dCS Bartók DAC brings together dCS’s past, present and future. It
is first and foremost a state of the art network streaming DAC that uses
technology developed for the Rossini range. With the addition of the unique
headphone amplifier it brings the extraordinary dCS digital experience to
both headphone and stereo listeners.

This single-box digital music player features the legendary dCS Ring DAC™
and signal processing platform, plus a custom high performance UPnP music
streamer.

Bartók plays music through an array of industry-standard USB, AES or S/PDIF
digital inputs. It can stream over Ethernet from a NAS drive or online
music services such as TIDAL™ or Spotify™, and from Apple devices via
Airplay™. The network interface can perform full MQA™ decoding and
rendering.

The DAC section is equipped with independent balanced and unbalanced line
outputs that can drive power amplifiers directly, avoiding the need for a
separate preamplifier. The Headphone DAC features a custom designed
headphone amplifier that works extremely well with both high and low
impedance headphones in balanced or unbalanced formats. All of the outputs
can be set to one of 4 maximum levels to enhance system compatibility.

Designed for flexibility and ease of use without compromise, Bartók uses
the very latest dCS Digital Processing Platform and Ring DAC™ technology,
originally developed for the Rossini series. Its single FPGA offers
streamlined signal processing and superior flexibility, effectively making
it future-proof.

Bartók DAC has a powerful new user interface, plus a custom control app
that lets listeners manage their music playback from any source in an
elegantly simple way – accessing iRadio channels, digital and UPnP sources
all from one control point. The Bartók app provides easy access to the DAC
settings.

Featuring DXD upsampling as standard, the multi-stage oversampling design
offers optional DSD upsampling plus an extensive selection of DSP filters
to suit individual taste and music choice. The network streaming
functionality within Bartók is proven in terms of jitter, ease of use and
sonic performance. The network interface currently runs at up to 24-bit,
384kS/s and DSD128, supporting all major lossless codecs, plus DSD in DoP
format and native DSD.
