PS Audio PerfectWave DirectStream DAC

Introduction to PS Audio

This document serves as an owner's reference and quick start guide for the PS Audio PerfectWave DirectStream DAC (DSDAC). PS Audio is recognized for its advanced audio technologies.

Understanding the DirectStream DAC

The DSDAC is designed to reconstruct and reveal musical nuances previously unheard. It converts PCM digital audio data to DSD format, upsampling it to 28MHz and then to 5.6MHz DSD for analog conversion. This process aims to reproduce a more natural and detailed sound experience.

Key Technologies

DSD Format: Utilizes the DSD (Direct Stream Digital) format for its inherent linearity and simpler D/A conversion process, offering superior sound quality compared to traditional PCM methods.
FPGA Core: Employs an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) as its core technology, eliminating the need for conventional DAC chips. This design addresses issues like jitter and unstable operation.
Advanced Upsampling: All digital input signals are upsampled to 28MHz and then converted to 5.6MHz DSD signals for processing.
Low Jitter Design: Features a sophisticated design focused on minimizing jitter, including a novel input signal recognition technology.
Passive Filtering: Incorporates passive filters and high-quality transformers to achieve exceptional frequency response and noise reduction.

Getting Started and Operation

The guide provides instructions on proper placement, connecting various digital sources via inputs such as USB, S/PDIF, and I2S. It details how to navigate the touchscreen interface for input selection and control, as well as the functions of the included remote control.
