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.

Volume Controls

If your DAC & Amps include volume controls or volume rockers, you can easily change the volume with a button press or volume knob turn.


DAC & Amps that have volume controls make its operation incredibly simple; turn up the volume on your smartphone or your source devices and then change the volume on DAC & Amps to the desired level.


This design feature allows you to have complete control over the desired volume according to your listening preferences.

EXPERIENCE THE PERFORMANCE OF THE R2R DAC, A RARE DELIGHT MADE POSSIBLE BY HIFIMAN

The HiFiMAN EF400 DAC & Amp architecture is designed with a discrete HIMALAYA R2R DAC module, based on an FPGA algorithm. It's an excellent match for high-performance audio equipment because of its low audio frequency range, minimal out-of-band noise, and low energy consumption. With a maximum resolution of 24 bits, the HIMALAYA DAC module supports the standard PCM music signal provided by the most common IIS (Integrated Interface of Sound) audio interface. A DAC, buffer, and active filter result in an unequaled balanced output for outstanding performance from a Class AB DAC/amplifier setup. On a 36 Ohms equivalent load, the four-channel differential amplifier circuit produces a maximum output of 10.7 Vrms (THD1%). The result is a perfectly balanced output that is unrivaled.
