The Isabellina

The Isabellina digital-to-analog converter (DAC) was designed to recreate music from digital media that closely matches the finest sonic qualities of analog sources such as the richness of tone, extraordinary timing/pacing, and an effortless presentation of the music.

Unlike many DACs available today, which boast impressive specs but are flawed with an analytical, cold and sterile ('digital') sound, the Isabellina offers a natural and emotionally involving musical presentation that pulls the listener into the music and does not let go!

Inside the Isabellina reflects our philosophy in using carefully voiced premium parts, short signal paths, and going "off-the-grid" with battery power. On the outside you will enjoy simple yet elegant aesthetics and superb build quality. Every Isabellina is proudly hand-made in the USA and carefully tested, inspected, and packaged before making its journey to our highly-valued and satisfied customers.

Our recipe is a purist approach:

• New-old-stock 16-bit, non-oversampling/non-upsampling D/A chip that implements R-2R conversion
• No digital filtering
• Proprietary, discrete Class A transistor output stage (no opamps)
• SLA battery powered with dedicated linear voltage regulators for the analog and digital sections
• Highest quality parts and short signal paths throughout
