HiFi Rose RD160

The HiFi Rose RD160 is a meticulously tuned DAC designed for peak performance, featuring separate DAC modules for each channel and a 2-chip solution to isolate digital processing from analog conversion. This ensures transparent and precise reproduction of Hi-Res audio without alteration. Three independently customized linear power supplies for digital input and analog output stages effectively block noise. The RD160 boasts exceptional balance, extremely low distortion, and a low noise floor for vibrant, lifelike sound. Its unique hidden OLED screen displays real-time information like flow charts, volume curves, and sound waves, offering an analog-like user experience with direct, latency-free control.
