NAD MDC DAC2

The DAC module is a dual digital-to-analog converter designed for the Classic series MDC stereo amplifiers. It inserts into the dedicated slot on the back of the unit and allows connecting a digital source via its optical input, and a computer (MAC or PC) via its USB port. The digital input benefits from a high-precision 192 kHz/24-bit converter, while the USB connection operates at 96 kHz/24 bits and transforms the module into a high-quality external sound card. The MDC DAC is the perfect complement to the C 356 BEE and C 375 BEE amplifiers.
