You are looking at a CAMBRIDGE AUDIO DacMagic Azur digital audio converter.

 

Instantly transform your favourite gadgets into a true hi-fi source!

The multi award-winning DacMagic is the world’s most affordable and effective way to upgrade any PC, Mac, network music player, digital iPod dock, games console or any device with a Digital Audio out to truly high-end sound quality.


Storing music digitally has enormous advantages in terms of capacity and instant access, but also requires the signal to be converted into the analogue domain before it can be amplified and delivered to your speakers.

 

DacMagic adds value by directly drawing a digital audio signal from any supported device and employing a vastly superior analogue conversion process.

 

DacMagic instantly adds clarity, vibrancy and dynamism to all digital music and with its ATF upsampling process, noticeably improves heavily compressed music.


With a variety of simple connections including S/PDIF, Toslink and USB inputs, DacMagic can be set-up in seconds. Hearing is believing!


Works with:

Blu-ray/CD/DVD-A Players
Any Mac or PC
Streming transports, Soundbridge, Sonos, Squeezebox, Apple TV Airport Express
Games console
LCD or Plasma TV (Optical out)
Digital iPod dock

Etc etc


ATF™ upsampling explained...

Adapted Time Filtering (ATF) asynchronous upsampling technology might sound complicated but the benefits are instantly audible. Essentially it converts 16-24 bit audio to 24 bit/192kHz so you hear way more from compressed music. Meanwhile a 32-bit Digital Signal Processor (DSP) eradicates jitter – an insidious side effect of playing back music from hard-disk devices like PCs and laptops.
So, however your digital music collection is stored, the difference in audible quality is incredible!

 

Very musical, refined & smooth. Typically non budget in sound.

IMPORTANT ANTI FRAUD PROCEDURE. 

I have placed security seals over some of the screws including the mechanism. Please do not open this item if you intend to return it. I have taken a video proving it works. If you find upon receipt it does not work you will have to provide video evidence. DO NOT OPEN IT. Buyers outside of the UK pay for the return postage. Only bid if you intend to buy it.

I had a situation where a fully item was returned as faulty. The person who bought it swapped out the working CD mechanism with a faulty one and returned it. BEWARE FELLOW EBAY SELLERS. Protect yourselves.

Buyers overseas: If you want to return an item you have purchased you must factor the cost to return the item. I add weights and mesures to the prefilled section on the listing and you have my return address. You can ask me for this information if you cant find it so you can calculate the cost before you bid. It could exceed the cost of the items value. I got the blame for the high cost of returning an item from the US to the UK. Cant see why this my fault.

Shipping to Belarus from the UK currently not possible.

UK Higlands cost more than the standard £10 for mainland UK, Greece, Canaries, Croatia, Ukraine, Turkey, Finland, Malta, Cyprus, Belarus all cost more than the standard EU postage rate as quoted by Ebay. Please ask for a quotation. Posting to South America, Canaries, Turkey can cost a lot more. Ebay should collect import duties and taxes at checkout however if this does not occur i will not be held responsible for these. The buyer must pay for these. Please check with your countries shipping quotas. I will request any return postage charges incurred are paid by the customer. Please ensure someone is home to sign for the delivery. The couriers will only make 3 attempts to deliver, then goods are returned to me at customers cost. If goods take longer than a week after payment then please get in touch i will chase it for you and provide you with an update.

Please pay within 3 days of winning the item.

Please contact me as soon as possible if any problems occur, i will be more than happy to help, even if it's help you need in getting your purchase up and running.

I do this because i love music and audio products.
