MP-D201 Mk.III
£33,300 inc VAT
The MP-D201 Mk.III DAC is typically Vitus. It’s heavy, impeccably constructed inside and out and features a generous deployment of metals and alloys within its semi-industrial design.
The MP-D201 Mk.III is the supreme level of digital control centres. It has all the needed I/O’s to interface with basically anything digital. With the built-in masterclock and sample rate conversion, it reduces jitter to the lowest level possible. Combined with the four stereo DACs in the analogue stage – it gives the best possible sound achievable with today’s technology.
There are the expected set of inputs on the rear panel allowing it to be connected to just about anything digital through a 24/192 USB or S/PDIF, both RCA or XLR. Everything that comes into the MP-D201 Mk.III is upsampled to 24bit/792kHz. Analogue outputs are via XLR or RCA.
Due to its modular design, there is the option of fitting a couple of pairs of analogue inputs (RCA and XLR) and a high-quality volume control allowing it to function as a DAC/preamplifier. The MP-D201 Mk.III has a standard on-board volume for level trimming, but the optional preamplifier in one box option is much better and uses a series of discrete resistors that don’t eat into resolution. This essentially means that you could forgo the expense of an undoubtedly expensive separate preamp and drive the power amplifier(s) directly from the DAC.
