Description

NuPrime Evolution One DAC : DAC

Most companies designed their high-end DAC by following the reference circuit from DAC chip company (such as ESS Technology). NuPrime takes it a step further with innovations surrounding the commodity chip.

To meet the highest performance requirement of the NuPrime Evolution Series, the power circuit of Evolution DAC has been redesigned from the ground up using C-Core transformers and AC filter, in addition to the DAC circuit. It utilizes one of the world’s highest performing 32-bit audio DACs, the ES9038PRO, and NuPrime PSRC IC chip to not only decode but also provide sampling rate up/down conversion from PCM 44.1kHz to PCM 768kHz and DSD64 to DSD512

  • NuPrime PSRC IC chip provides sample rate up/down conversion processing, from PCM 44.1kHz to PCM 768kHz and DSD64 to DSD512 (including PCM to/from DSD).
  • A proprietary NuPrime implementation capable of decoding DoP formats via coaxial and optical inputs (to support NuPrime source and server devices that are able to output DoP stream in addition to S/PDIF).
  • Seven digital filters.
  • Output Level variable or fixed mode.
  • Analog output phase change.
  • Analog output channel setting (both outputs can be set to Right, Left, R + L or L + R).
  • Display brightness adjustment.
  • Seven digital inputs for complete system flexibility. Full microprocessor control with memory retention for all inputs.
  • Custom designed non-linear volume curve.
  • USB Asynchronous transfer mode.
  • USB Supports DSD native playback by ASIO and DoP method. DSD is decoded natively with the same sample rate as the input source.
  • USB Supports native MQA decode.
  • Individually adjustable volume on each input for precise level matching of sources.
  • Exclusive driver software for Windows, standard driver software for Mac.
  • NuPrime vibration-free isolation feet.
  • Available in black or silver anodized aluminum finish.

MQA and Sample Rate Converter (SRC)

The Sampling Rate Converter is not active when the input is MQA, which is how it should work. You can experiment by using software unfolding and decoding on the PC Tidal application so that the Evo DAC receives a PCM stream rather than a MQA stream. With a PCM stream, you will then be able to use the SRC and perform upsampling. You can then compare the sound between the MQA stream and the upsampled PCM stream.
