{"product_id":"gustard-r30-streaming-dac","title":"Gustard R30 Streaming DAC","description":"Gustard R30 Network Streaming DAC specifications feature streaming support for Roon, AirPlay, HQPlayer NAA, UPnP\/DLNA, Spotify Connect, MConnect, and BubbleUPnP, with resolution support up to PCM 768kHz via USB (1536kHz via I2S) and DSD512 via USB (native DSD1024 via I2S). Built on a fully discrete R2R resistor ladder and a native 1-bit DSD decoding array, this DAC delivers natural, analog-like playback. It utilizes a dedicated CelWare network bridge to minimize jitter, an FPGA control engine, and an SC-cut OCXO precision clock with a 10MHz external clock input. Inputs include USB, Coaxial, Optical, AES\/EBU, dual I2S, and LAN, paired with a discrete Class-A analog stage and a relay-based passive preamp with pure bypass mode.\n\nReviewers consistently praise the Gustard R30 for its organic, smooth sound signature that eliminates digital glare while retaining outstanding micro-detail. Listeners highlight its expansive soundstage, lifelike midrange texture, and pitch-black background. Users value the seamless built-in streaming and passive volume control, noting that after a 50 to 60-hour burn-in period, the unit achieves remarkable tonal warmth, spatial depth, and fluid musicality that rivals far costlier digital front ends.\n\nCombining a reference R2R converter, dedicated streamer, and passive preamp into a single chassis solves system synergy and cable clutter. Audiophiles looking to upgrade their digital system will find that the Gustard R30 provides a seamless mix of streaming convenience, reference timing, and realistic tonality that brings true musical engagement to every listening session.","brand":"Gustard","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67617332134169,"sku":"100680","price":3099.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/4225\/1545\/files\/100680-4.jpg?v=1790882865","url":"https:\/\/tmraudio.com\/products\/gustard-r30-streaming-dac","provider":"The Music Room","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
