Musical Fidelity M6x DAC Dual Differential Hi-Res DAC
The Musical Fidelity M6x DAC represents a new generation of digital-to-analogue conversion, built around dual ES9038Q2M DAC chips in a true dual differential configuration. Designed and manufactured in the EU, it combines advanced digital architecture with a super-silent power supply and fully balanced analogue output stage.
With comprehensive high-resolution support including PCM up to 768 kHz, DSD512 and full MQA decoding, the M6x DAC functions as a refined digital hub. Independent upsampling control, selectable digital filters and a high-performance headphone amplifier provide flexibility without compromising sonic transparency.
Features
- Dual ES9038Q2M DAC chips in dual differential (dual mono) configuration
- 32-bit HyperStream II DAC architecture
- Time Domain Jitter Eliminator for ultra-low jitter performance
- Selectable upsampling and 7 digital filter options plus oversampling bypass
- USB Audio Class 2.0 input up to 32-bit/768 kHz, DSD512 (native) and DSD256 (DoP)
- Full MQA decoding via USB and S/PDIF inputs
- Balanced XLR and single-ended RCA outputs (fixed or variable)
- Dedicated output buffers for RCA and XLR stages
- High-performance current-feedback Class AB headphone amplifier
- Super Silent encapsulated toroidal power transformer with EMI filter and DC blocker
- Rigid aluminium chassis construction for shielding and stability
