The PreDIGin add-on is designed to complete the PreAmplifier Kit. PreDIGin is the digital companion for audio enthusiasts seeking the ultimate listening experience. At the heart of the PreDIGin lies cutting-edge technology, including high-quality components such as the AK5574 ADC IC, dual CS43198 DAC ICs operating in mono mode, SRC4392 for superior sample rate conversion, and the ADSP21489 DSP for advanced signal processing capabilities.
An exceptional DAC
One of the standout features of the PreDIGin is its exceptional DAC audio specifications. With an output level of 14dBu, distortion rated at an impressive -117.5dB, a signal-to-noise ratio of 128.5dB, and a dynamic range of 127dB, the PreDIGin ensures pristine audio reproduction, capturing every nuance of your favorite music
Versatility is another key strength of the PreDIGin, offering support for a wide range of audio formats and connectivity options. Whether you prefer traditional sources like S/PDIF, Optical, and AES/EBU up to 192kHz/24bits, or cutting-edge digital interfaces like USB type B and Network1 up to 384kHz/32bits, the PreDIGin has you covered. Additionally, Bluetooth connectivity at 48kHz/16bits provides convenient wireless streaming options.
The PreDIGin add-on comes with a network option, which includes an internal USB-audio input. The user is required to purchase and install a Raspberry Pi (models 2 to 5) inside the DIY PreAmplifier. A dedicated space for this is provided. The Raspberry Pi functions as the internal processor, working together with the software of your choice. There are many software options available, each offering its own advantages and disadvantages, so it is important to carefully select the one that best suits your needs.
For those looking to take their audio setup to the next level, the PreDIGin includes a FusionConnect board. This optional feature transforms your PreAmplifier Kit into the master device in a FusionAmp setup, offering seamless integration and enhanced control over your entire FusionAmp based audio system.
With its exceptional performance, versatility, and innovative features, the PreDIGin sets a new standard for DIY audio enthusiasts. Elevate your listening experience and unleash the full potential of the PreAmplifier with the PreDIGin add-on.
