Description
High-Performance DAC & Headphone Amplifier
The Cambridge Audio DacMagic 200M is a powerful, compact digital-to-analogue converter and headphone amplifier engineered for serious audio performance. At its core are dual ESS SABRE ES9028Q2M reference DACs, delivering outstanding clarity and precision for digital audio up to 24-bit/768kHz PCM or DSD512, with one DAC dedicated to each channel for true stereo fidelity.
Connectivity is versatile and extensive, featuring two pairs of optical and coaxial digital inputs, USB Audio, and Bluetooth with aptX support—perfect for streaming high-quality audio from your smartphone, laptop, CD/Blu-ray player, or gaming console. Outputs include balanced XLR, unbalanced RCA, and a ¼” headphone jack, providing flexible integration with both desktop and full-sized hi-fi setups.
The DacMagic 200M also supports MQA decoding, enabling playback of studio-quality streaming files from services like TIDAL. Housed in a sleek half-width chassis finished in Lunar Grey (with a special edition black option), this compact unit blends effortlessly into any audio system, delivering reference-level sound in a minimalist design.
Shine a Light on Music
Digital audio files can be packed with incredible musical detail, but they need to be converted to analogue first for you to hear it. And how good it sounds will depend on how well the digital audio from your computer, network player or CD is converted. DacMagic 200M’s twin ESS DACs decrease crosstalk and improve separation because there’s a DAC dedicated to both left and right channels. These fully balanced, optimised, and efficient signal paths reveal previously hidden glittering musical prizes.
Why You Need Some DacMagic
Perhaps your vintage amp lacks the digital inputs for today’s listening choices. Maybe the DACs in your hi-fi setup just need a helping hand. Or you hate how your computer down-samples audio streams before they’ve hit your headphones. One thing’s for sure, DacMagic 200M is a dedicated hi-fi separate that beats integrated DACs for pure sound performance.
Desktop Dream Team
DacMagic 200M can be used with a variety of digital sources, maybe kit you already own. Alternatively, you can pair it with its sibling – our MXN10 compact network player. These half-width hi-fi heroes share the same family look and are now available in a choice of special edition black or lunar grey. Together they make a very credible desktop hi-fi system – or ‘head-fi’ if you prefer.
Vital Connections
Being compact, but not miniscule, means that DacMagic 200M has room for a plethora of digital inputs and analogue outputs. Two pairs of co-ax and optical inputs, a USB computer in and Bluetooth aptX for wireless connection keep the most demanding listener happy. A pair of balanced XLRs, unbalanced RCAs and a ¼” (6.3mm) headphone-out complete the picture.
Sounds Like Team Spirit
Looking for fast, accurate retrieval with no upsampling to keep your music intact? Then DacMagic 200M’s powerful XMOS processor can handle 1000 million instructions per second, to send digital information to the dual DACs, which work asynchronously at a clock speed of 100Mhz to convert digital to analogue in a ‘bit perfect’ way.
Choice and Status
DacMagic 200M’s aluminium fascia has a button to select one of 4 possible digital inputs, another to pick one of 3 digital filters to suit your listening taste, and a volume control if you’re using it as a headphone amp. There are LED lights to confirm your input and filter selection, with additional ones that indicate the incoming music resolution.
MQA: Studio Quality Audio
If you’re signed up to Tidal’s premium service, you can enjoy MQA music files. A green LED, on DacMagic 200M’s fascia, confirms it’s a genuine MQA music file. While a blue MQA LED indicates that you’re listening to a file approved by the artist/producer or verified by the copyright holder as accurate to the original recording. Put simply, blue is best.
Designed for Real Life
DacMagic 200M’s small enough to fit a desktop, but big to hold its own in a stack. Within its half-width hi-fi separates form, it delivers a sonic upgrade that’s way bigger than the steel and aluminium case it comes in – now in a choice of lunar grey or special edition black finish. Take our 60-day home trial to hear it for yourself.
