This innovative device is designed specifically for music enthusiasts who seek to combine top-tier audio quality with seamless streaming capabilities.

Effortless Streaming, Exceptional Sound

The McIntosh DS200 Streaming DAC epitomizes the marriage of cutting-edge technology and classic McIntosh craftsmanship, elevating any home audio setup to a new level of luxury. Tailored for listeners who already possess compatible power amplifiers and preamplifiers, the DS200 fills the gap by providing a high-end streaming component that enhances their existing audio systems.

Audiophile-Grade Digital-to-Analog Conversion

At the heart of the DS200 is a next-generation Quad Balanced 8-channel, 32-bit Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC). This advanced technology delivers a wide dynamic range and low distortion, resulting in superior sound reproduction that audiophiles demand. As a Roon Ready endpoint, the DS200 integrates seamlessly with the Roon music player, enhancing the listening experience through rich metadata and certified streaming technology. It has also received Roon Tested certification, ensuring straightforward setup and effortless daily use.

For those looking to enhance their home theater experience, the HDMI (ARC) input elevates TV and movie audio beyond traditional sound systems by converting Dolby and DTS multi-channel formats into two-channel audio.

The DS200 offers both balanced and unbalanced analog outputs, facilitating seamless integration with any existing audio system. It comes factory-set in fixed output mode, with an option to switch to variable output mode for direct connection to a power amplifier, allowing full digital volume control.

I made short movies with my stuffed animals as a kid, since then I knew from a young age I wanted to be a videographer. My parents always said I had a great eye for video/photo, so I made my job out of it. Now I make professional corporate video's. I love to learn all about new gadgets and electronics that come to the market, that's why I write/edit for "Best Of High End".
