DAC’s the way to do it – Audiolab wants to upgrade your Hi-Fi and headphones

Audiolab D9 DAC. It is a silver rectangular hi-fi component with a dark display and a level meter in that display. The D9 is against a black background and on a black surface.

Quick Summary

Audiolab's new D7 and D9 DACs include high quality headphone amplification that puts out up to 600mW for seriously loud listening.

They start at £449 and will be available later this month (May).

Audiolab has unveiled two DACs that it claims are "directly descended" from its renowned M-DAC. They're here to power-up your Hi-Fi and your headphones, and both models will be available from the middle of May 2025.
