Sound Quality & Listening Experience

The DAC-Z10 delivers a sound that is resolute yet natural, combining excellent micro-detail retrieval with a relaxed, fatigue-free presentation. Transients are fast and clean, imaging is stable and well-defined, and the noise floor remains exceptionally low even in highly resolving systems.

Vocals are presented with realistic body and texture, while complex passages retain separation and control. The balanced output stage allows the Z10 to scale effortlessly with higher-end amplification and speakers.

This is a DAC designed not to impress artificially—but to disappear into the system and let the music take center stage.
