DAC Chip
You may not even realise it, but most of us use a digital-to-analogue converter (commonly known as a DAC) daily. Built into your computers, tablets and smartphones, a DAC is fundamental to unlocking the convenience of digital music. Any device that acts as a digital sound source will need a DAC to convert digital audio to analog. A DAC converts the digital information stored in “0s and 1s” into an analog signal that's passed to speakers or headphones and ultimately our ear. In short, DACs play a large part in making digital music hearable.While this technical process is undoubtedly impressive, the DAC embedded into your smartphones or laptops is nowhere good enough to listen to your favourite music recordings in high quality. So, if you want to listen to music in high quality, an external DAC is essential to allow headphones or speakers to perform at their potential. An external DAC, first and foremost, will improve audio quality dramatically.

Pair with Laptop via USB
A majority of people use a laptop as the primary source device to listen to music or watch movies. Since the laptop is an essential part of the audio chain there are headphones and devices designed to work a laptop or computer system flawlessly. With the availability of USB connectivity, it becomes easier to pair various devices like an Amp, DAC or even headphones without worrying about drivers or any additional piece of software.

DESCRIPTION
DENAFRIPS CELEBRATES 12 YEARS OF UNWAVERING AUDIO EXCELLENCE
Incorporated in 2012, DENAFRIPS is based in the charming Chinese city of Guangzhou, where it began as a manufacturer and designer of high-end audio equipment. They firmly believe that high-end audio equipment does not necessarily have to come at a steep price. With their line of audio products, DENAFRIPS has an unwavering commitment to audio perfection that has won the community of audiophiles over. DENAFRIPS's lineup of R-2R DACs has received excellent praise. DACs, DDCs, Pre-amplifiers, Power Amplifiers, and Headphone Amplifiers make up their current product line. Since their release, their DACs have caused a stir in the high-end audio industry. Continuing their legacy, DENAFRIPS has released the Ares 12th Anniversary Edition, Pontus II 12th Anniversary Edition, Venus II 12th Anniversary Edition, Terminator II 12th Anniversary Edition and Terminator Plus 12th Anniversary Edition to commemorate 12 years of unrelenting audio excellence.

REVISED TECHNOLOGY DELIVERING SUPERIOR SIGNAL
The DENAFRIPS Terminator II 12th is developed from the technologies found in the flagship device of the company. The device uses state of the art fourth generation discrete resistor 26 Bit R-2R for PCM decoding, 6Bit DSD hardware decoding with 32 steps FIR filters. This is a total breakthrough of the traditional integrated chip constraints. The result of this architecture is superior sound signal and seamless decoding capability.


SOPHISTICATED DESIGN INTEGRATING ADVANCED CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR CLOCK
DENAFRIPS Terminator II 12th’s core conversion module R-2R is constructed with 0.005% high precision, 10ppm low thermal effect precision resistors. Each channel uses more than 500pcs of these precision resistors, or 1000pcs for two channels, four times more than the other typical R-2R DAC. These achieve a truly astonishing low distortion, fully balanced design. Oven-Controlled Crystal Oscillators OCXO clocks are used with FIFO buffer and reclocking - to eliminate the word-clock jitter from the sources.

STATE-OF-THE-ART LINEAR POWER SUPPLY ENCASED IN THICK METAL ALLOY ENCLOSURE
The DAC board is located underneath the DENAFRIPS Terminator II 12th's dedicated encased hefty linear power supply unit which is housed in a substantial metal alloy enclosure with an additional steel plate divider between them for added shielding. The box-within-box design eliminates the inherited problems of dual-box solutions. Beefy dual O-Core Transformers for Digital and Analog sections, Ultra-Low ESR, Long Endurance Reservoir Capacitors, and multi-stages super linear power supply, ensuring ultra-precision, low ripple power supply charging up DAC.

AWARD-WINNING TRUE REFERENCE DAC
With the design architecture implemented in the DENAFRIPS Terminator II 12th, the sound reproduction is of reference grade and transparent without any colouration.
