The MSB Technology Select DAC stands as a pinnacle in ultra-high-end digital audio conversion, revered for its uncompromising performance and innovative design. Crafted by MSB Technology in California, this flagship DAC employs a proprietary, fully balanced, discrete ladder DAC architecture, utilizing multiple Hybrid DAC modules to achieve astonishing levels of detail, musicality, and spatial realism.

A key differentiator is its modularity, allowing DAC, clock, and input/output modules to be user-upgraded, ensuring longevity and adaptability. It incorporates MSB’s Femto 33 Clock, an advanced oven-controlled crystal oscillator for vanishingly low jitter. The Select DAC operates with dedicated external power supplies (typically two mono powerbases) that provide isolated power to the digital and analog sections, drastically reducing noise.

With a passive, constant impedance analog volume control, the Select DAC can directly drive power amplifiers, bypassing the need for a separate preamplifier. Housed in a solid billet aluminum chassis, it supports PCM up to 3072 kHz and DSD up to 8xDSD. The MSB Select DAC delivers an immersive, fatigue-free listening experience, truly redefining digital audio reproduction.

- Fully Balanced design down to the conversion point.
- No buffers, IV converter, or transistors in the signal path. No active devices after conversion at all.
- Dynamically configurable between a discrete native DSD, or discrete native PCM DAC. The DAC has two modes:a multibit PCM mode and a massive parallel single-bit discrete DSD mode.
- Based off a discrete ladder DAC design far beyond the performance of a basic R2R architecture.
- Each DAC module is individually shielded and thermally bonded for a stringent temperature control.
- Multiple DACs per channel for increased performance and lower output impedance.
- Each DAC module is individually tested and then hand-matched with our rigorous automated measurement system.
