Vastly improve your TV using DacMagic... how?

008 Another amazing way to use your DacMagic was unearthed last night!

Did you know that most LG and Samsung (and others) have an Optical Out? Plug it into a DacMagic and the difference in sound quality is like night and day. The quickest and probably cheapest serious upgrade I've ever made to my system.

Meant to have an early night but spent hours revelling in how cool music channels now sound. It’s on a par with high-end CD quality…

The DacMagic is still the best!

WHF Best Dac 2009 smallThe DacMagic scoops two new awards for best digital to analogue convertor!

"The result is a powerful, full-bodied yet subtle and driving presentation: one that caters for all types of music equally well."

Best digital-to-analogue convertor What Hi-Fi? Sound & Vision Awards 2009

HFCwinner2009"An astonishingly capable piece of kit that does all the right things, with out-of-class achievements in all tonal areas and with excellent detail. Not only does it present a very life-like version of musical events, it seems equally adept at reproducing all manner of music styles, yet maintains its composure in the face of very tricky textures and close-knit melodic lines. And at the price it's a steal."
