    Clocks - Timing is the essence of musicality & without an accurate clock in your player you will never hear the original performance.. C2 low jitter premium clock

    SPower - Hearing is believing! Low noise, fast response voltage regulators. The SPower benefits from a very low noise precision voltage reference point...

    Beresford Caiman (TC-7520 SE)

    We aim to offer the very best products and upgrades.

     

    NOTE:- We highly recommend purchasing our very own ULTRA PSU for the Beresford dac, these linear low noise power supplies are possibly the best power supplies out on the market right now. - http://www.fidelityaudio.co.uk/beresford_psu.html

     

    TC-7520 SE CAIMAN DAC

     

    The level 1 upgrade covers the basic areas of any upgrade, basically addressing the power supply capacitors in all the key areas and of course the audio output section. Level 2 adds a low noise SPower 'D' regulator for the dac psu + a SPower low noise voltage regulator which is for the voltage supply to the output stage, offering a more detailed and natural sound bringing gains to the fluidity and naturalness of the sound.

    Customer Comments -

    I must say the dac sounds great,fantastic detail and great soundstage. There have been a few "hairs on the back of the neck" moments already,I feel it`s really wringing the best out of my system

    All the very best
