Voltage Compatibility】
When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.
【Plug Type】
Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type).
Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.
【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】
A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements.
A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage.
Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.
【Liability】
We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer.
[Amazing sound quality] DC-Elite is equipped with ROHM's BD34301EKV DAC chip and follows the architecture comparable to portable player products in this compact size.
[Desktop-class current output DAC chip] Among compact portable DAC/AMPs, it is unprecedented to use the high-end audio/current output DAC ROHM BD34301EKV, and DC-Elite will be the first attempt in the industry.
[In-house developed 24-stage 4-section step attenuator] The DC-Elite uses an analog volume, allowing you to experience the highest level of silence and clarity among smartphone matchups, and boasts an unparalleled SNR spec among dongle DACs, achieving the highest level of sound.
[Audio circuit comparable to a player] The audio circuit of DC-Elite is a large-scale circuit design similar to that of a player, centered on the ROHM DAC chip "BD34301EKV" and equipped with 6 dual operational amplifiers. Needless to say, the sound quality is a huge leap forward from the industry's highest sound standard for dongle DACs (compact DACs/AMPs), and will become a benchmark for flagships.
[Pure Sound] In addition to a high-efficiency power supply using synchronous rectification technology and RICOH's Boost DC/DC converter chip, the DC-Elite is equipped with Linear Technology's ultra-low noise LDO linear regulator, which is also used in flagship players, to achieve a low-noise design with a "noise floor ＜0.8μV".
[3.5mm & SPDIF + 4.4mm Dual] DC-Elite is equipped with 4.4mm balanced + 3.5mm single-ended dual connectors, and the outstanding sound and high output dual connectors allow you to freely combine earphones and headphones without being restricted by size. The 3.5mm output also supports SPDIF (coaxial digital) output, and supports high-spec digital signal transmission of up to 768kHz/32bit to external DACs and audio systems, making it possible to match with home audio systems.
[Low power consumption design] DC-Elite's power consumption is one of the lowest in the industry, even though it is equipped with a current output flagship DAC and a design comparable to that of a player. The figures of 690mW for balanced output and 630mW for single-ended output prove that it has an excellent low power design even among flagship dongle DACs.
[High-quality design with a luxurious design] Aircraft-grade titanium alloy material is lightweight, has excellent strength and corrosion resistance, and is the perfect material for a pocket-sized dongle DAC (compact DAC/AMP) that is expected to be used in a variety of situations. The housing design uses a heat sink design that takes advantage of the thermal conductivity of titanium and has excellent heat dissipation.
