Harmonix Reimyo series

DAP-777 D/A converter

Retail $5,195 US

A high-purity digital-to-analog converter unparalleled in its class. Eliminates virtually all digital/analog interference and reduces noise to an unprecedented level. Special internal wiring permits ultra high-speed transmission at nearly zero distortion. Employs Japan Victor's 20bitK2 processing. Design and assembly handled by Kyodo Denshi. Also includes AES, BNC, optical and coaxial digital inputs, and balanced and unbalanced outputs.

“I've yet to discover a context in which the Reimyo isn't musically preferable … If it has any substantial weaknesses, short of analogue levels of grace and intimacy, I've yet to discover them. Meanwhile I'm just happy to enjoy a product that, unfashionable as DACs might be, has seriously increased my enjoyment of silver disc. The DAP-777 leaps straight in at the top of my digital wish list.”  hi-fi+
