Dangerous Audio designed the CONVERT Series converters from the ground up, utilizing cutting-edge digital technology coupled to a Chris Muth-designed analog circuit that delivers the signature Dangerous Audio sound: open, articulate and powerful from top to bottom. Loaded with innovative and useful features accessed from an intuitive front panel, the CONVERT-8 tops an elite class of dedicated stereo digital-to-analog converters in both sound and ease of use.

Chris Muth has designed the analog gear used to mix and master an endless list of hit records and classic reissues. Not only did he develop the audiophile-grade analog audio path of the CONVERT-8, Chris also meticulously fine tuned the low-pass reconstruction filters mandatory to implementing any DAC. These filters lie at the heart of how a converter will perform, and the CONVERT series has the jaws of top pros hitting the floor when they hear the big natural sound and the powerful, ultra-clear low-end.

Perfecting the Digital Side
Dangerous Audio rigorously refined the CONVERT’s JetPLL ultra-low jitter clocking technology until it surpassed the JET’s stated specs, resulting in the virtual elimination of jitter throughout the audio band and beyond. Gone are the sonic headaches and end-of-day fatigue brought on by long-term exposure to jittery digital audio systems. The CONVERT-8’s superbly implemented digital technology delivers such a natural, open and non-irritating sound that you’ll forget you’re even listening to converted 0s and 1s.
