Asahi Kasei Microdevices AK4497SVQ 129dB 2-Channel Stereo Premium DAC
Asahi Kasei Microdevices AK4497SVQ 129dB 2-Channel Stereo Premium Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) is a premium device that exemplifies VELVETSOUND™ technology, delivering high-fidelity audio with remarkable precision. Designed for high-end audio applications, the AK4497SVQ supports up to 768kHz/32-bit PCM and DSD512 input formats, ensuring accurate reproduction of high-resolution audio sources. The Asahi Kasei Microdevices AK4497SVQ features a switched capacitor filter voltage output and six selectable digital filters, allowing for flexible sound tuning across various use cases.
With a signal-to-noise ratio of up to 129dB (133dB in mono mode) and total harmonic distortion plus noise as low as -117dB, this DAC achieves exceptional clarity and dynamic range. The AK4497SVQ also incorporates Data Weighted Averaging (DWA) routing technology to minimize conversion element variation, enhancing analog performance. Automotive-grade compliance further broadens applicability, making the AK4497SVQ ideal for luxury car audio systems, in addition to network audio, USB DACs, and professional audio gear.
