The Bryston BDA-3 is a world class DAC (digital to analog converter)
that is packed with the perfect mix of features making it an essential
part of your digital audio chain. Use diverse audio sources such as
Bryston's BDP digital music players, computers, music servers, and CD
players to get the most accurate and superb sounding digital playback
currently available. The BDA-3 is a magnificent DAC best suited for
systems where high performance is desired.
The BDA-3 delivers superb sonic performance through re-sampling and
re-clocking of the digital input signal. With the exception of
user-selectable up-sampling, the BDA-3 doesn't convert anything to
another format or re-sample at a non-native rate. The most notable
difference between the BDA-2 and BDA-3, in addition to PCM playback
capable of 384kHz/32 bit resolution, is that the BDA-3 is fully DSD
enabled. The BDA-3 can decode up to DSD-256, through asynchronous USB
inputs, and accepts SACD input via HDMI. The BDA-3 incorporates 10
separate inputs which include four 2-channel HDMI, asynchronous USB,
AES/EBU, TOSLINK, and digital coax. Additionally, the network module
which facilitates control via TCP/IP and RS-232 makes the BDA-3 a must
for modern home automation.
