The GyrFalcon Audio Black Box are audiophile Digital to Analog
Converter modules specifically
optimized for high-end audio applications, where
standard off-the shelf DAC solutions are
not good enough in terms of audio performances and
input choices. The
result
of this proprietary and discrete design
concept is the most “analog like” system
in digital.
These modules
can receive digital audio directly in AES/EBU, I2S
or DSD format (depending on the selected version),
which then are all upsampled to 128FS 1-bit
delta-sigma through a proprietary algorithm that,
unlike standard digital filters, varies its
characteristics in time to safeguard the transient
nature of music signals.
Fully
compatible with the GyrFalcon CD and SACD
modules(GF8, CD-Pro2LF, GF6), these
“jitter-free” conversion modules will definitely
reach the highest sound performances for your
high-end audio applications.
Three versions
of these GF Audio Black Box are
available: Black
Box 192, Black Box 176,
and Black Box 0 modules. You will find
