Ideon Audio Ayazi MK2 DAC
The jack of all trades
The Ayazi mk2 DAC is designed and fine-tuned specifically to reveal the musical magic encoded in the numbers, that are stored within the digital medium. Sound reproduction with exceptionally broad dynamic range, ultra-low distortion and low noise, accurate sound stage, and musical congruity.
We used the device in many different high-end systems and set-ups as it is intended to be the jack of all trades for digital-to-analogue conversion, to be used anytime, anywhere.
A high-performance DAC
No frills construction: Solid and functional, the Ayazi, as one reviewer put it, “probably sets the sonic performance benchmark for DACs costing double or more its asking price”, encompassing what we started out to do: to offer the experience of the musical event, a sound you won't believe for its price. With the Ayazi, style follows function and budget. The result: when it comes to DACs, the Ayazi is the affordable reference!
Input Protection
The USB input comprises Ideon Audio’s proprietary electrostatic protection circuit; the best way to fight against signal degradation and noise is to keep it at bay before it enters the signal!
Asynchronous Dual Clock Input
Pushing jitter and the noise floor to vanishingly low levels to achieve phase-correct sound, and dynamics.
Femto clock architecture: Pushes jitter and noise floor below perceptible levels in our circuit. Two high quality CCHD-957 oscillators by Crystek.
Over Engineered, Top of the Line Power
We not only need abundance of power, we need clean power, especially devoid of hi-frequency noises, electrical interferences, and similar performance compromising distortion.
Using top of the line regulators and hi-end audiophile capacitors, discrete and ultra-stabilised power feeds, the Ayazi declares its own war on extraneous electrical & digital noise, achieving unparalleled dynamics and clarity in its class.
We believe we have a sonic winner!
