Unison Research Unico CDDue

The Unison Research Unico CD Due is designed to excel in digital audio playback, providing an authentic sound experience. Its innovative engineering melds traditional analog warmth with advanced digital processing capabilities.

---

The Unico CD Due functions as both a high-end DAC and CD player, utilizing precision components to minimize noise and maximize signal integrity. The use of an ESS Sabre DAC ES9018K2M, known for its low distortion and high signal-to-noise ratio, ensures accurate audio reproduction. A quartz oscillator stabilizes timing to reduce jitter, enhancing the clarity of the audio signal. The output stage employs four ECC83 tubes in a totem pole configuration, achieving high immunity to power supply noise while combining the sonic characteristics of triodes with the drive capabilities of cathode followers. With isolated analog and digital sections, the design ensures that power supply noise does not affect audio output, which is further supported by cascaded voltage regulators providing a clean power source.

Key Features

• Multiple Input Options: The USB input supports PCM up to 384kHz and DSD up to 11.2896MHz, allowing for extensive compatibility with various digital audio formats.
• Bluetooth Connectivity: Functions as a simple wireless audio gateway by connecting your smartphone, allowing convenient streaming without physical cables.
• Tubed Output Stage: The output utilizes tubes to create a warm sound profile while maintaining low distortion thanks to carefully designed circuitry that combines triode audio characteristics with robust output capability.
• Advanced DAC Technology: The integration of an ESS Sabre DAC with jitter elimination provides exceptional signal clarity and low distortion levels of 0.0003%.
• Isolated Power Supply: With 11 separate stabilized power supplies, each section of the unit operates under clean power conditions, enhancing performance and reducing noise interference.
• Graphic Display: The white OLED display offers excellent visibility for important audio information while allowing users to turn it off for an undistracted listening experience.
