Introduction
The
HeadMaster
is a reference quality all in one monitoring station with 4 selectable
inputs (2 digital, 2 analogue), a variable output, switchable between two sets of
loudspeakers, a headphone output, and in addition a fixed level output from the D-A
converter.
The D-A converters are by Crookwood. They are a 192kHz 24bit converter. We use a
technology that produces a jitter free output, regardless of the condition of the
incoming signal. This also means that locking to different sample rates will be quick
(flicking between the AES and SPDIF inputs) and the performance the same.
The analogue inputs use DACS proprietary
Clarity
circuitry. This means very low
noise and low distortion, with immense detail and clarity, superb stereo imaging and
stability. These inputs are balanced on XLR and unbalanced on phono. The inputs
are selected on the front panel via stainless steel switches with an LED indicator.
This unit offers very high performance, with the Crookwood D-As performing in an
exemplary fashion, and DACS’ well respected analogue expertise creating some of
the best sounding headphone outputs available, and pristine feeds to your studio
monitors.
