“I’ve been working on its creation from the beginning and I also have a DacMagic Plus prototype at home. You could say I’m obsessed!
Most of my music’s stored on my MacBook and I just love the depth DacMagic Plus provides. It reproduces every detail, every rattle and every sigh.
Listen to a track like The Rosenberg Trio’s version of My Blue Heaven through DacMagic Plus and it just sounds incredible…”

Share music from your phone, tablet or computer with DacMagic Plus.
For the ultimate personal listening experience, DacMagic Plus features a fully integrated dedicated headphone amplifier and volume control. Meanwhile, a digital pre-amplifier means it can be connected directly to power amplifiers or active speakers.

Just like everything we put our name to, DacMagic Plus was conceived and created at Cambridge Audio’s Research and Development Centre on London’s Southbank – a district most known for music and popular culture. Here our team of designers work with an uncontested passion for making whatever music you’re into sound sensational.
