Gustard has released the X26 Pro a flagship-grade desktop DAC. It comes as an upgrade to the highly-appreciated X26 from Gustard that was ceased production a few months back. The latest X26 Pro houses top of a line DAC chipset housing two ES9038Pro DAC chips from Sabre Technologies. This beast of a device will surely bring life to your desktop audio chain and deliver a fabulous performance with super clean audio signal decoding.

Dual Flagship DAC Chips:-

Gustard has opted for premium DAC chips by Sabre Technologies for its flagship Desktop device. The X26 Pro houses two high-performance ES9038 Pro DAC chips. The ES9038 Pro sets a new benchmark in audio signal decoding with the industry's highest dynamic range support. It is a 32-Bit 8-Channel DAC made for high-end desktop systems.

Premium XMOS USB Signal Receiver Chip:-

The high-performance Dual DAC chipset is backed by a class-leading 16-core USB signal receiver chip from XMOS the XU216. It provides excellent hi-res signal support including PCM support for 32-Bit/768kHz and DSD up to DSD512 natively. It also enables full decoding support for high-resolution MQA files over USB signal input.

Built-in K2 Ultra-Low-Noise Synthesizer:-

Gustard has equipped the X26 Pro with their in house developed K2 Ultra-low noise clock synthesizer. It allows the device to achieve ultra-low jitter performance. Benefitting from this the master clock of the DAC chipset is also controlled by the K2 high-precision clock synthesizer.

High-Definition Bluetooth Connectivity:-

Using a premium CSR8675 Bluetooth chip from Qualcomm the X26 pro supports seamless Bluetooth V 5.0 connectivity. It allows support for multiple hi-res codec support such as LDAC AptX SBC AAC and more for high-definition audio signal streaming.

Multiple Input/Output Options:-

Connect the X26 pro to your setup using multiple input options such as USB IIS Bluetooth Coaxial AES and Optical. For output the device features fully balanced XLR and unbalanced R line out options.

DSP Digital Filtering:-

The Gustard X26 Pro features a high-performance digital filter solution developed on the analog device SHARC digital audio dedicated DSP Platform. It features a self-developed high-performance anti-aliasing noise algorithm for a super clean signal decoding.

Independent Power Supply:-

There are two high-quality audio dedicated toroidal transformers separately supplying power for the digital and analog circuits. This allows for super-clean power to all the different components on the audio motherboard resulting in a clean noise-free audio output.
