We are happy to announce the new Level C version of the DAC2.1 Kit - this is the transformer coupled version of the kit that many of you have been waiting for.
This represents the ultimate in DAC kits; building upon the highly regarded and popular DAC Kit 2.1 Level B, the Level C DAC comes with a new driver board (taken from the latest L3 Line Pre-amplifier) which then drives two 33:1 step-down output transformers.

As you can see from the picture above, our new component layout and single mains transformer make it easy to upgrade your DAC. In fact, it is now possible to upgrade a DAC Kit 2.1 Level A all the way up to a 2.1 Level C - using the same chassis, power supply, and digital board.

New! Announcing the DAC Kit 2.0 - our new entry level DAC.
We have given the DAC Kit 1.1 a face lift and also added some nice new features/configurations with USB etc. We are hoping that more kit builders can get into the Audio Note DAC sound at a lower price point and gradually work their way up.
The new DAC Kit 2.0 supports an optional USB input, signature digital board with torrodial input, PK black gates and analog filter removal - the sound is stunning!

New! Announcing the Parallel 300B IE Core MonoBlock (Standard Version starts at $3,400 USD).
We are pleased to announce a new configuration for the Interstage Mono Block -
When the Mono Blocks were first released we had a single triode version in two price configurations for IE core and Double C core output transformers. For the parallel Triode configuration, however, we could only supply the kit with the Double C-core transformers. The Parallel IE core output transformer was no longer available so we commissioned Audio Note to design a new transformer of the highest cablibre and this now allows us to offer both the parallel triode mono block in IE and HI-B core configurations - the IE core will start at $3,400.

This product was recently showcased at the VSAC2008 where the monoblocks were used in conjunction with a full Audio Note finished product system. The sound was stunning and all involved agreed that this amplifier would be classic! Rated at between 18-20W, these interstage mono blocks provide ultimate resolution, detail and power!
Official release of this product is July 1st 2008 - enquire about 2A3 parallel configurations as well as upgrade components.
