We are very happy to announce our newest addition to the Max2Play sound card selection. Collybia’s flagship sound card, the MamboBerry HD DAC+ comes in two different varieties to accommodate any specific needs in the audiophile market. One utilizes the ultra-low jitter Femto Clock by IDK and the other one was outfitted with the hi-end clock module CH-957 by Crystek. <\/span><\/p>\n

These two newly designed models, made by the Greek manufacturer Collybia, offer huge local filter capacitors from NICHICON (330 \u03bcF in Crystek-Version and 220 \u03bcF in IDT-Version for each capacitor), three-ways new ultra low noise LDO by Texas Instruments, WIMA plastic film and ELNA audiophile bypass capacitors, as well as SUSUMU SMD resistors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The creator of the DACs, Vasilis Tounas<\/a>, is a renowned sound technician and design engineer whose participation in high-end sound components for over fifteen years brings professional expertise to the HD DAC+ models’ conception and design.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [blank_spacer height=”30px” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”] [spb_text_block pb_margin_bottom=”no” pb_border_bottom=”no” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”]\n

Here are the two variants side by side with their respective components explained:<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_single_image image=”42272″ image_size=”full” frame=”noframe” intro_animation=”none” full_width=”no” lightbox=”yes” link_target=”_self” width=”1\/2″ el_position=”first”] [spb_single_image image=”42271″ image_size=”full” frame=”noframe” intro_animation=”none” full_width=”no” lightbox=”yes” link_target=”_self” width=”1\/2″ el_position=”last”] [blank_spacer height=”30px” width=”1\/1″ el_position=”first last”] [spb_text_block title=”DAC with IDT Femto Clock” pb_margin_bottom=”no” pb_border_bottom=”no” width=”2\/3″ el_position=”first”]\n

The standard version of the HD DAC+ includes the IDT XL crystal oscillator XLH536. IDT is an established company with a long history in clocks. Collybia used their clock for some time and found that this new version of their XL crystal oscillator brings a massive improvement in sound quality over previous clocks.<\/p>\n

In all HD DAC+ sound cards, the\u00a0Sabre9023p Digital-Analogue-Converter chip is included. Both versions excel at high resolution audio of 192kHz\/24bit and, like their predecessors, support Digital eXtrem Definition DXD 352,8 kHz playback.<\/p>\n

<\/i> Buy MamboBerry HD DAC+ Crystek Edition<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Crystek version of the HD DAC+ is the premium variety. It utilizes the Crystek CCHD-957 with filtering inside the clock which has been established as a flagship component to reduce jitter to under 2 picoseconds in previous tests. It is very transparent at higher resolutions, and a little wider range.<\/p>\n

You’ll only need one 5v power supply for the sound cards and the Raspberry Pi. Two ultra-low-noise voltage regulators ensure quality audio performance.
\nHowever, using a quality power supply unit is highly recommended. We recommend the iFi Audio iPower with active noise cancellation<\/a> or a custom linear power supply.<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
