Sonnet Audio Pasithea d/a-converter
Sonnet Audio Pasithea - inside

Twittering Machines - Over time, listening to music through the Pasithea brought me deeper into whatever music I wanted to hear where thoughts of its sonic strengths and traits were replaced by aspects of the musical performance. In so doing, the Sonnet DAC became a rather elusive review subject as the power and beauty of music overwhelmed my thoughts and attention.

Beschrijving

De Pasithea, de belichaming van ontspanning en meditatie, is nu dan bij ons eindelijk te beluisteren. Cees Ruijtenberg heeft met de Pasithea spanning aardig weten op te bouwen, de verwachtingen zijn dan ook hoog gespannen. Wat mogen we verwachten? Hieronder een korte opsomming van een aantal interessante wetenswaardigheden.

  • ultra neutraal zonder enige degradatie van kwaliteit.

  • 8 SDA-3 dac chips worden hiervoor ingezet

  • 10dB lagere -160dB ruisvloer

  • extreem lage uitgangsimpendantie (RCA 100 Ohm, XLR 16 Ohms)

  • echte 24-bits dynamic range

  • naast een USB ingangspoort nu ook standaard I2S

  • optioneel menu-gestuurde 10dB verzwakking van het uitgangssignaal
