Inĭual-differential mode, a pair of stereo DACs is used for each audio channel. Performance? Go with a dual-differential DAC configuration. Want to go all out, and really get a hot-rod This allows for a lowered noise floor as compared to running a DAC in single-ended mode (one D/A converter Because DACs are manufactured asĮither stereo (two-channel) or multi-channel (5.1, 7.1), a single two-channel DACĬhip can be configured to handle the positive portion of the waveform in oneĬhannel and the negative portion of the waveform in the other channel, for oneĪudio channel (e.g., left front), which is called differential mode (otherwise known as balanced). The next level for DACs is to go to aĭiscrete DAC for each channel. There are a number of players with quite excellent sonics First, you can use a single multi-channel DACįor decoding, saving overall cost, and increasing convenience forĮngineering. There are a couple of ways to go about handling D/A conversion Taking a peek under the hood, and at the tail lights If I didn't do this, I'd never get the photos completed.
