The Cayin iDAC-6MK2 comes to the market in order to replace the first generation iDAC and provides important new features and improvements, with the aim of offering the quality that your music deserves.

With a new DAC, a new stage and tube amplification, the ability to decode DSD512 and PCM, as well as new and multiple connections, make the iDAC-6MK2 the perfect alternative for those looking for a high-performance stationary DAC.

The Cayin iDAC-6MK2 takes a step forward and opts for a new 32-bit, 8-channel ES9028Pro DAC.

Demanded by the most enthusiasts, this chip has the ability to support high resolution formats such as DSD512 and PCM 768kHz/32Bit, as well as reaching a dynamic range of 129dB.

Its good figures and components ensure that the Cayin iDAC-6MK2 delivers the highest possible performance to your headphones, and is complemented by a dedicated amplifier to match.

In its amplification stage, we find a tube structure formed by four 6H16B type tubes, which achieve superior amplification both in standard and balanced output, and which is ideal for reproducing the most demanding audio formats.

This Cayin iDAC-6MK2 has two different aspects: acting as a standard DAC through its line output and a dedicated preamp output. In the first of them, figures of 2.V are reached for normal output and 4.4V for balanced XLR output, while in its pre or 'Pre Out' section, which can act as a speaker amplifier, figures of 7V are reached for normal output and up to 13V for balanced

Composed of 6 digital inputs, the Cayin iDAC-6MK2 covers all user connection modes.

The device has optical connection, USB audio, RCA coaxial, BNC coaxial, I2S and AES/EBU, in addition to the connector for the power supply, analog RCA and the balanced XLR connection.

Another aspect improved in this new version of the iDAC-6 is its construction quality and external elements.

The device is built through a CNC machined aluminum process, which in addition to providing elegance and visual coherence, manages to reduce possible sound interference.

On the other hand, a new 3.9' AMOLED screen is introduced, to identify the status of the DAC and which will allow you to manage and view the interface to your liking.
