COMING SUMMER 2026!
The DAC 2 is the best DAC that AVA has ever produced -- and is quite possibly the best anywhere.
The AVA DAC 2 is a high-performance digital to analog converter based around a famed AKM DAC IC and custom discrete class-A gain cells. Each of the DAC IC's differential output signals passes through a single reconstruction stage in a way that retains all the benefits of differential digital-to-analog conversion with both differential and single-ended outputs.
This combination of a high-quality DAC IC, minimal analog processing, and the optimized performance of the discrete discrete class-A gain cells gives you an unprecedentedly pure signal -- no matter which output you use.
The DAC 2 has one USB, two coaxial S/PDIF, and two optical S/PDIF inputs. The variable level output is provided on both RCA and differential (i.e., "balanced") XLR jacks.
Operation is via a touchscreen and remote control.
Everything you need. Pure and direct.
We are immensely proud of what we have accomplished with the DAC 2. Calling it "stunning" is an understatement.
Do you want to use your analog sources with your "digital first" setup too? Then be sure to check out our A2D audiophile analog-to-digital converter.
