Upgraded Global Master Timing (GMT) clock circuitry Improved low-jitter clock with >20dB better performance Enhanced sonics Pro Series | True Differential Balanced Circuit Fully-symmetrical, dual-mono signal stage Gold-plated 4.4mm balanced connection SNR = <-116dB(A) @ 0dBFS (UnBAL/BAL) Analogue Volume Control | Fixed Or Variable Variable - use this setting if you wish the ZEN DAC Signature V2 to control the volume of powered speakers or its volume as a preamp. Fixed - use this setting if using with downstream equipment with its own volume control. This will bypass the ZEN DAC Signature V2 as if there was a `straight wire' from the digital source to the analogue amplifier.
