The Cyan 2 has several “trickle down” technologies from it’s bigger brothers and we are excited to introduce this product at a more affordable price.

Overview

Cyan 2 “青2”, A new generation DAC of fully discrete resistor network (commonly known as R2R). Relative to its predecessor the Cyan “青”, the Cyan 2 “青2” has the following improvements:

• Equipped with R2R network and vector step resistor network at the same time. The R2R network is used for primary digital-to-analog conversion of the PCM stream, and the vector step resistor network is used for primary digital-to-analog conversion of the DSD stream.

• The new generation of de-glitch technology can provide full-amplitude de-glitch without increasing the noise floor and other adverse effects.

• Based on this new generation of technology, Cyan 2 “青2” Can provide >106db SINAD and >127db dynamic range.

• USB supports sampling rates up to DSD1024 and PCM 1.536M.

• The USB interface uses proprietary firmware with ultra-low latency, a highly reliable data transmission, ideal USB eye pattern measurements that contributes to 2-4 times higher performance than official firmware.
