If you see products marked as “⚙️ DAC Chip”, expect to experience your music with unparalleled clarity, detail, and fidelity, ensuring that every note and nuance is faithfully reproduced for your listening pleasure.
Sampling Rate And Bit Depth
Ever wonder how those ones and zeros on your computer magically transform into the rich melodies that fill your room?
The secret lies in a tiny device called a Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC). Think of it as a translator, taking the digital code of your music and meticulously sculpting it back into a smooth, analog wave that your speakers can understand. But just like a sculptor needs the right tools, achieving audio nirvana with a DAC depends on two key factors: sampling rate and bit depth.
Sampling Rate:
Imagine your favourite song as a complex rollercoaster track. The sampling rate refers to how often the DAC takes measurements of this digital track, measured in kHz (kilohertz) or thousands of times per second. A higher sampling rate, like 96 kHz, is like taking a ton of pictures of the track, capturing every twist and turn with incredible detail. Lower rates, like the standard 44.1 kHz used in CDs, are like taking snapshots at a theme park – fun, but you might miss some of the subtler details that make the ride truly exhilarating.
Bit Depth:
Now, think about the sculptor's tools. Bit depth refers to the precision of each measurement the DAC takes. Imagine the number of colours available to the sculptor. With higher bit depth (e.g., 24 bits compared to 16 bits), each measurement can capture a wider range of values. This allows the DAC to recreate subtler variations in the sound wave, resulting in richer and more nuanced audio. It's like having a broader colour palette for building a more detailed and lifelike sculpture of the sound.
The SMSL D300 is an excellent budget DAC with a super rare and flagship-grade ROHM chip. You can forget about any harshness, edginess, or high-frequency glare while listening to music on the D300.

DESCRIPTION
EQUIPPED WITH ROHM DECODING CHIP AND XMOS USB INTERFACE
The SMSL D300 is a powerful DAC based on the high-end ROHM BD34301EV conversion chip. The team of engineers at SMSL have optimised the D300 to deliver the highest performance from the DAC chip achieving an ultra-low THD+N rating of as low as -116dB. It enables high-resolution signal decoding with ultimate precision and quality. SMSL has paired this flagship DAC chip with XMOS XU208, an 8-core USB processor that enables high-res 32-bit/768kHz PCM and native DSD512 decoding with the device over the USB connection.
STABLE PERFORMANCE WITH ULTRA-LOW JITTER CLOCK SYSTEM
The SMSL D300 has been embedded with an ultra-low jitter clock system that offers stable and artefact free audio. The D300 utilises a brand new CK-03 clock signal processing circuit. This circuit provides an ultra-low jitter for all the inputs including USB, Coaxial, Optical and Bluetooth. This effectively improves the output signal quality from the DAC bringing you close to true & pure sound output. Unlike many DACs, which reserve the best clocking for the USB input, the D300’s CK-03 clock processing circuit ensures ultra-low jitter across all inputs.
HIGH-RESOLUTION BLUETOOTH 5.0 CONNECTIVITY WITH LDAC PLAYBACK
SMSL D300 features the latest Qualcomm Bluetooth Chip that enables Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity for audio signal reception. With its Qualcomm receiver chip and antenna, the D300 can connect to your devices like a smartphone, for convenient remote streaming. The D300 supports all the latest wireless transmission codecs including LDAC, AptX HD, AptX, AAC, and SBC. LDAC transmission allows for high-resolution 24-Bit/96kHz streaming over wireless Bluetooth connection.
MULTIPLE I/O CONNECTIVITY WITH GLASS DISPLAY AND REMOTE CONTROL
The SMSL D300 offers you a full plethora of input-output interfaces including USB, I2S, Coaxial, Bluetooth and Optical for the input signal and RCA & XLR analogue outputs. The output can be chosen as fixed volume (line-out) or variable volume (Pre-amp out) to suit multiple use cases. The D300 uses a gorgeous and durable tempered glass display panel that transmits more light than traditional display panels. You can control the D300 from up to 32 feet away using the included remote control. Adjust the volume, change the input selection or access submenus, all without having to touch the device.
EMBEDDED WITH A SPECIALLY DESIGNED LOW-NOISE POWER SUPPLY
SMSL has designed a discrete component for the D300 that stabilises the power supply for the device. It provides noise-free operation, ensuring each component on the analogue and digital circuits receives sufficient power. It is optimised for better efficiency with lower power consumption. The SMSL D300 benefits from the shielding of its low noise power supply stage. This process allows to efficiently limit the interferences and noise for a pure and precise sound.
