Da denne DACen var ny for meg og jeg ikke fant noe om den her på sentralen lager jeg like gjerne en liten tråd. Er det noen andre som har den så del gjerne noen erfaringer.
Satte nettopp en bestilling på denne selv i dag. Har lest litt om den i romjula og den virker spennende. Har frem til nå brukt en Hegel HD25 i hodetelefonoppsettet i lang tid sammen med en Bryston BHA-1. Jeg er ikke så kjent med RME men skjønner at de har lang fartstid i pro markedet. DSP og EQ delen i denne DACen virker også lovende.

RME: ADI-2 DAC
Fra Hedfonics.com
Our Verdict
I can’t think of any other desktop DAC/amp combo that would be easier to recommend in 2018. There is no magic involved in the RME ADI-2 DAC: no proprietary filters, no patented exclusive circuits, no unordinary connections and most importantly no voodoo buzz words. This is an extremely down-to-earth device that has just been given extreme thought, massive experience and great attention to detail. It’s not the supplier’s chip that makes a great device, it is how you use the tools.
The ADI-2 DAC is technically marvelous, regardless of whether you want to dive into the long feature list or not. I do recommend you do, though, because the equalizer with its many save slots, the customizable loudness function, the tight crossfeed, various DA filters and many controls to test your whole audio chain just keep on giving and giving. Despite the huge amount of functions, the software is extremely stable and hasn’t failed me once.
While the Phones output provides clean and linear amplification for even power hungry headphones, the new IEM output might just have reached a new reference level. Of course, the device will work just as well as a standalone DAC in case you want to connect some warm tubes with the line-out. The channel-specific dual EQ or quick bass/treble adjustments can work wonders for a speaker setup.
