Ed Meitner’s reference DV2 DAC embodies his drive for perfection and culminates in his most significant statement in DAC designs. The DV2 is the first processor to include EMM’s new VControl, a high-resolution volume-control system which is completely transparent at any volume setting and has wide attenuation range.

The DV2 USB input enables PCM conversion up to DXD (352.8 and 384kHz sampling rates), DSD up to DSDx2 (DSD128), and full MQA unfolding and rendering. All other inputs—including AES/EBU, two coaxial and two TosLink S/PDIF, and the proprietary EMM Optilink, which supports CD and SACD playback from EMM transports—are limited to 24-bit/192kHz PCM and DSD64.

This DV2 was initially supplied by the Dutch EMM Labs distributor and sourced from the first owner. It comes with the original box, manual and metal remote. Newprice: 32.500 euro (pricelist is available), now for 11.500 euro.
