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.

Customer Reviews
It connects ARC - (not sure of eArc) via HDMI - your TV to it. RCA Takes everything to your amp or receiver. It connects bluetooth, Coaxial and also any TYPC playing phone / Audio device. You may need to have an extra phone always to power it on. Wall adaptors doesn't seem to work, if you get lucky tell me what watts of charging brick should I use to connect it to power on without a phone. Very useful one. Esp my TV where i use Spotify most. HDMI delivers HI-RES to the Dac and therefore to the amp. So it adds many high quality inputs to your amp, esp when you have amps like Fosi - where inputs are less.
Hi there,
Thank you for your review of the S.M.S.L - PS100.
Good tonal clarity in budget price. Arrived in secured packing. Thank you headphone zone. Willing to buy more products in future.
Hi there! Thank you for your positive review of the S.M.S.L - PS100. Happy listening!
Finally it arrived. It took some time to figure out the TV audio settings and then the audio exprience was truly amazing. I have a 2.1 channel speaker system and wanted to have the best sound possible for watching TV and its been worth it for its price.
Service from headphonezone also has been outstanding from speaking to them to placing the order till receiving the product too.
Thank you for your positive review of the product! Happy listening!
No nonsense, to the tip of word "apt" product.
Plastic body is one of the cost saving part yet connections and button are long lasting ones.
BT is lagging the quality of true audiophile starting grade, if it is the reason to buy.
I think the philosophy of enjoying any VFM is, take the quality of a product from the eyes of a kid getting a first gift.
A reviewer will always be unhappy, so be a user per your pocket and you will be a happy user of SMSL VFM products. SMSL know the true meaning of no-nonsense VFM.
Thank you for such an in-depth and thoughtful review! Your insights are incredibly valuable and will surely help other audiophiles make informed decisions.
