Product Highlights

Includes POW1 linear power supply unit ($1300 value).

The Merason Frerot DAC features dual Burr-Brown PCM1794A conversion chips processing PCM up to 24-bit/192kHz across USB, coaxial, and optical inputs, packaged here with the upgraded POW1 linear power supply. Serving as a reference-grade digital bridge, this compact unit converts raw digital streams into fluid, emotionally resonant music with true analog realism. Swiss-built with complete signal integrity, it pairs a fully discrete Class-A analog output stage with balanced XLR and single-ended RCA connections inside a heavy aluminum chassis. The included POW1 linear power supply delivers ultra-clean regulated voltage, lowering the noise floor while unlocking expanded dynamic authority, tighter bass control, and superior spatial separation.

Critical consensus earns this converter widespread acclaim across top audiophile publications, including a prestigious StereoNET Applause Award. Reviewers praise its natural, analog-like tonality, deep soundstage layering, and ability to present intricate musical passages with effortless clarity. Critics from outlets like Part-Time Audiophile applaud the addition of the linear power supply, noting that it elevates performance well into reference territory.

Integrating this upgraded digital front end into your system breathes vibrant, lifelike warmth into digital audio collections without sacrificing micro-detail or dynamic punch. It represents an ideal choice for discerning music lovers seeking organic, emotionally engaging playback every single day.
