ESS, the best performer in the audio market

Adapt uses the latest ESS 32bit SABRE HiFi³ DAC with the Triple Filtered Power Supply for the most stable yet dynamic audio experience.

ULTRA HIGH Precision sound

The two custom ultra-low jitter Oscillators in the Adapt REFERENCE model differentiate themselves from other portable audio DACs having more clean and consistent sound, just like the high-end audio system. In simpler words, A quartz watch is off by 50 seconds per month, and a regular Oscillator is off by 25 seconds per month. But Adapt REFERENCE's custom oscillator is off by only 1.3 seconds per month. That's some accuracy.
Adapt REFERENCE has two oscillators dedicated to 44.1kHz and 48kHz native sampling rates to minimize even the tiniest error.
