The reference front end
The Ideon Audio IΩN (ION) DAC, with optional analog preamplifier utilizing trickle-down technologies and R&D gained, from our extensive work with our flagship Absolute Epsilon DAC.
High output impedance at -120 dB SNR, quad current output from DAC Cutting edge analog stage, with symmetrical ultra-low noise power supply – in a unique topology. Ultra low-noise power through, more than 10 different separate power regulators in the circuit. Direct coupled output with no capacitors in the output stage. In-House fully balanced design throughout. The sonic result re defines digital audio playback potential, bringing you directly to the heart of music with a breath-taking sense of naturalness and presence.
