Meridian’s new Explorer² is the successor to the popular and widely acclaimed Explorer pocket USB DAC.

Explorer² includes digital clocking derived from Meridian’s award-winning Reference Series components, for precise timing of digital signals.
Featuring a dramatically increased complement of technologies, Explorer² with full MQA support, is able to incorporate the full suite of Meridian’s audio enhancement technologies to provide a more realistic, natural sound than ever before.
