Reference Digital to Analogue Converter, Headphone Amplifier and Preamplifier
DAVE is the most advanced DAC we have ever made. It features the very best conversion technology available, using proprietary techniques never seen before, making DAVE the most advanced DAC/preamp amplifier in the world. DAVE stands for āDigital to Analogue Veritas in Extremisā, a moniker that best reflects the productās capability; a device so advanced and with so few compromises, that it is truthful in the extreme ā a standard that all other DACs on the market simply cannot hope to match.
The DAC, which is also a reference-level headphone amplifier and ādigital preampā, distils twenty years of Chord research, development and advanced engineering into one device. At its heart lies a new version of the advanced Spartan 6 Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) with 1,000x the processing power of the traditional mass-produced chip DAC. DAVEās FPGA is loaded with over a million lines of code to confront complex timing issues head-on, with speed and precision.
The FPGAās extraordinary capability enables several key sonic benefits, including significantly improved timing and the best noise-shaper performance of any known DAC. DAVEās technology delivers music with unmatched reality and musicality, with an unrivalled timing response. The deviceās lossless digital volume control outputs the signal directly to your power amplifier for the purest experience.DAVE has a full-sized LCD, showing input, sample frequency, volume and set-up configuration options, within Chordās famous porthole design. On its fascia, DAVE also features a rotary encoder with a large stainless steel controller and ball buttons, enabling direct interactivity in addition to the supplied remote control.
