Owner's manual

DACS’ range of high performance studio and stage devices embody our
philosophy. We believe in simplicity, but above all else, Clarity; sonic Clarity and
functional Clarity. The range includes the DACS MicAmp2, a two channel
microphone¹ (see also reviews in Sound on Sound and Studio Sound, both
November 1997 viewable on our web site), and the DACS HeadLite2, a four
channel headphone amplifier. According to users, both units perform flawlessly
AND sound fantastic. Our recently launched (Aug 2006) Eightch, an eight
channel volume control, won the Pro Audio Review PAR Excellence award.
For many years DACS have manufactured custom equipment for
professionals the world over using a number of our own high performance audio
building block circuits. The performance of these circuits has been honed over
the years out in the field, and developed through fulfilling the changing
professional requirements of their many customers in widely divergent sectors of
the industry.
DACS have crystallised these years of experience to bring you this
range of elegantly simple high performance units, all hand made throughout.
Where they benefit performance we use expensive components and time
consuming processes, but do not spend prodigiously on ‘cosmetics’. Though we
are bucking the trend towards downsizing work-forces and automating
manufacturing processes, these units are very competitively priced. This is
achieved by a combination of good design, good organisation, low overheads,
and the use of standard housings and other components where possible.
These visually striking, well engineered devices will last well into this
century achieving levels of performance that digital technology, and much
analogue technology, aspires to today.
YOU are what make your studio world class.
Our equipment is designed to help you continue to produce fine music well
into this century.
¹ We are proud to announce that the MicAmp won the Studio Sound Audio Industry Recognition
Award in the Outboard Pre-amp category. This was voted for by registered readers of Studio Sound
worldwide.
