The Kora DAC140 DAC reveals the Acoustic Truth through its precise digital-to-analog conversion capabilities. It delivers natural signal dynamics with exceptional spatialisation, ensuring an authentic listening experience.
The Kora DAC140 utilizes AKM's sophisticated upsampling technology to elevate audio signals to 768 kHz, allowing for superior filtering of high-frequency residues that could interfere with audible sound quality. A distinguished ROHM DAC facilitates the seamless conversion of 32-bit signals at this elevated sampling rate, eliminating artifacts and ensuring a clean output. The unit's design incorporates the Square Tube® architecture, which enhances musicality by providing a stable environment for audio signal processing. The high voltage output stage allows for unrestricted amplitude, preserving the integrity of the original signal dynamics. Coupled with an all-analog output filter, the Kora DAC140 achieves remarkable phase coherence, fostering an immersive three-dimensional soundstage that accurately represents the spatial relationships of the audio elements.
