Enter the Matrix

To squeeze the most sound quality out of your tunes, you need a proper DAC to convert those digital files into analog signals. At the same time, you want to keep your desk as clutter free as possible and avoid diving any further into debt. Giving you a high quality DAC and headphone amplifier in one compact unit, the Matrix Mini I DAC/Amp maximizes your audio experience at a minimal cost.

Killer Components

Arriving with a full arsenal of possibilities from the get-go, the Mini I features four input options- USB, AES/EBU, optical, and coaxial- and two output options- unbalanced RCA and balanced XLR. No matter which set-up you choose, the two internal AD1955 DAC chips convert your audio into the highest possible quality and sample rate. As for the amplification side of the equation, two operational amps (OP275 and OPA2134) drive your speakers and a dedicated headphone amp drives headphones with up to 300 Ohms of impedance. For even further versatility, the Mini I can also be used as only a pre-amp or a DAC by switching modes.

Drive a Mini

To ensure all that sweet sound stays safe and undistorted, the Matrix Mini I includes a shielded toroidal transformer, an EMI filter, and a multi-stage stabilized power supply. Reading your settings off the digital LCD display, you can easily adjust the volume, turn the power on or off, or switch between inputs via the analog knob. Bringing new clarity, energy, and depth to your digital music experience, the Matrix Mini I DAC/Amp takes up little desk space while radically widening your headspace.
