The Benchmark DAC3 HGC builds on the DAC 2 HGC reference digital to analogue converter but provides active 2nd and 3rd Harmonic Compensation, lower THD+N and passband ripple, improved frequency response and faster PLL lock times. These changes result in outstanding musical detail and improved stereo imaging.
The DAC 3 supports PCM or DSD conversion natively doing away with unnecessary conversions and bit accurate conversion to analogue. Switching between both is also seamless.
