  • Use the DS-5 as a fully standalone DAC with locked output, including variable gain capability.
  • High quality headphone amplifier
  • Affordable option as a preamp to connect directly to the final stage
  • Asynchronous USB
  • DSD 2.8MHz (DSD64) / 5.6MHz (DSD128), DoP
  • Exclusive MUSES OP-AMP 8920 (interchangeable to personal preference, soldering required)
DS5 is latest generation DAC, it supports not only PCM , but also DSD 2.8MHz (DSD64) / 5.6MHz (DSD128).
The DS5 also supports 24bit/192kHz so you can enjoy your current music library in its full resolution.
Smart and compact, this high-end DAC and headphone amplifier features the latest technology such as asynchronous USB for bit-perfect sound with very low jitter.

"There's something about blasted aluminum that makes my heart beat a little faster. The Ami Musik DS5 is barely bigger than a handful of cups stacked high, and the phrase 'small but delicious' comes in handy here."

The DS-5 is a multi-artist where you can connect external sources via S/PDIF or Coaxial digital in addition to USB. In parallel with headphones, you can drive external end stages directly connected to the line-out output or directly to active speakers.
Features
  • DSD DAC and headphone amp supporting 2.8MHz (DSD64)/5.6MHz (DSD128)
  • Standalone DAC support (with coaxial and optical input)
  • Asynchronous USB operation: bit-perfect digital audio and low clock jitter.
  • USB audio class 2 (up to 24bit/192kHz) and high-speed asynchronous mode: Microsoft Windows® XP, Windows® Vista and Windows® 7 (32bit/64bit) with special driver compatible with WDM/Direct X, ASIO 2.2 and WASAPI exclusive. Apple OSX version 10.6.4 and above & Linux Kernel 2.6.37 and above (no driver install required).
  • Suport native DSD and DoP in Windows & DoP in Mac.
  • Atmel SAM3 Cortex™-M3 microcontroller to support 24bit/192kHz, DSD64/DSD128 audio data
  • Customized AMANERO Technologies COMBO384 USB 2.0 Audio Class solution supporting PCM 24bit/192kHz and DSD64/DSD128. This solution provides Mute/DSD out enable pin allowing to safely shifting between PCM and DSD.
  • AMANERO firmware update manager allows updating possible future firmware via online.
  • Cirrus Logic CS4398 (120dB, 192kHz multibit DAC) 120dB dynamic range, advanced segment DAC architecture supporting DSD64/DSD128 format and automatic mute algorithm.
  • Wolfson WM8804 S/PDIF transceiver supporting advanced jitter attenuating PLL with low intrinsic period jitter of 50 ps RMS providing even best audio playback experience from external signal input.
  • TI TPA6130A2 Stereo headphone amplifier for superior PCM and DSD signal playback via headphone (Max 16 O 138mW)
  • Over voltage protection logic. In case of AMI MUSIK DS5 reaches 5.5V, the protection logic would activate to protect the DAC, and various IC.
  • 2 W 1:1 input range, dual unregulated output, 1000 Vdc isolation, DC-DC converter
  • High-efficiency analog power supply circuitry for supporting secondary rectification by linear regulator for isolating +/- 12V unregulated power generated from the +5V external power thoroughly blocking external intervention from analog power and providing clean, low energy, low heat DC power
  • Dual line output mode support pure DAC mode(fixed gain) and preamp mode(variable gain, digital volume control)
  • 20PPR Mechanical Encoders Quadrature 20-step encoder allowing control of On/Off power, volume control, DFU mode in/output.
  • Power, digital volume control and sampling rate are indicated through LED.
  • Fade in/out featured for switching mode and playback for your hearing protection.
  • 5T aluminum front/top for anti-vibration
  • LED for sample rate, input and output status, volume level and different settings indication.

Buy&Try applies to the entire Aune, Auralic, Quadral, Sbooster & Taga range.

Buy & try gives you as a customer the opportunity to try out the product in your own home environment, instead of standing in a stressful store and trying to form an opinion. Rooms behave very differently and affect the sound in different ways and we give you the opportunity to demo the product for a full 30 days, in your own home.

 

If for some reason you feel dissatisfied, just contact us and we will help you with the return shipping, you can also take advantage of our shipping agreements with lower prices. Costs that will be charged to the customer are the shipping to the customer and the return shipping to us at MYC HiFi. For return approval, the item must be returned in new condition and in the original packaging.

 

Regarding speakers, be aware that speakers may need a long recording time to come into their own. After a couple of hours you can usually get a taste of what to expect, but a speaker deserves 100h+ before serious listening. The speakers we sell with ribbon tweeters need several hundred hours before they start to sing. So feel free to leave the speakers on around the clock so you can quickly accumulate hours.

 

If you have any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to contact us.

 

 

  • Buy & Try applies to goods that are normally kept in stock and not to order goods, unless otherwise agreed.

We provide at least a 2-year warranty on all products, some products have up to a 5-year warranty. With this, you avoid expensive insurances and can feel safe as a customer. In case of problems during the warranty period, contact us and we will solve it quickly and smoothly.

ATTENTION!

The 2-year warranty does not apply to headphones, demo/service copies or consumables, in these cases the manufacturer's warranty applies. On demo and service copies, the warranty period is stated on the product page.

Lamp warranty

If the lamp for your projector breaks during the first 12 months, or the first 1000 hours (whichever comes first), you will receive a new lamp free of charge. If the manufacturer has a more generous warranty, it applies.
