D3 DAC USB 24-BIT, WZMACNIACZ SŁUCHAWKOWY
3 lata gwarancji
Connect D3 to a USB port on your Mac or PC and send high-quality music to your headphones or any audio system. D3 includes a USB DAC and headphone amplifier for incredible audio performance in a portable design and is the perfect intro to computer audio.
The Audioengine D3 Premium 24-bit DAC (digital-to-analog converter) allows you to bypass your computer's headphone output and send music directly through a USB port for noticeably improved fidelity and a higher output. The D3 is a powerful yet portable converter with performance and features usually found in more expensive DACs and is the perfect interface between your computer and headphones or any music system.
Setup is easy and no special software is needed, making D3 a true plug-and-play solution. The D3 plugs directly into a USB port on your computer so no external power supply or cables are needed. The output of the D3 connects to headphones, Audioengine powered speakers, or any audio system. The D3 also has a sample rate indicator that shows sample rates above 48K so you'll know you’re getting the most out of your HD music.
The quality of most computer headphone outputs isn't generally very inspiring, so the D3 provides a better option by streaming audio from your computer's USB port and directly connecting to your music system or headphones. The D3 DAC is the perfect way to get great-sounding music not only from your computer to headphones but also from your computer to any music system.
D3 will process digital audio at any bit depth up to 24 bits and any native sample rate to 96KHz. With its high signal-to-noise ratio and low distortion, the D3 delivers sound quality generally heard only in more expensive DACs. The high-performance headphone amplifier was designed for a wide range of headphones and will satisfy even the most demanding headphone enthusiast with its high output and revealing sound. The D3's asynchronous data transfer carefully controls USB streaming audio from any computer which greatly improves audio performance.
The aluminum case of the D3 reflects traditional Audioengine design and the high-quality components and audio fidelity are typical of Audioengine's commitment to great sound at affordable prices. The Audioengine D3 continues to close the gap between your computer music and home hi-fi and even if you're not an audio enthusiast we guarantee your music will sound better!

Sercem D3 jest układ przetwornika AKM AK4396 DAC, powszechnie znany z wysokiej klasy parametrów i niskiego poziomu szumów. Zastosowanie dwustopniowego filtra w torze zasilania oraz przetwarzanie sygnału w rozdzielczości do 24 bitów pozwoliło na uzyskanie bardzo wysokiego wskaźnika SNR oraz bardzo niskich poziomów zniekształceń. Niezależnie od parametrów wejściowych sygnał przetwarzany jest zawsze w jakości 24/96, zapewniając optymalne wykorzystanie przetwornika.
Wzmacniacz słuchawkowy wbudowany w D3 bazuje na układzie niskoszumowego wzmacniacza LME49726. Uniwersalne wyjście słuchawkowe o niskiej oporności i sygnale maksymalnym do 2V zaprojektowano do pracy ze słuchawkami o szerokiej skali impedancji, tak aby zadowolić nawet najbardziej wymagających entuzjastów dźwięku nausznego.
D3 zasilany jest przez złącze USB, bezpośrednio ze źródła (komputera PC). W torze zasilania zastosowano dwustopniowe filtrowanie i regulacje aby mieć pewność, że ewentualnie zakłócenia czy wahania dostarczanego napięcia nie wpłyną na jakość dźwięku. Niskoszumowy i nierezonujący układ zasilania zlokalizowany został na osobnej płytce tak aby zapewnić izolację magnetyczną i odpowiednie odprowadzanie ciepła.
Kontrola poziomu wyjścia (głośności) odbywa się za pośrednictwem komputera (systemu operacyjnego), po stronie D3 jest to cyfrowo kontrolowany potencjometr analogowy.
Yes! You will need an Apple USB camera adapter, and a self powered USB hub. We've tested this with the D-link DUB-H4 and DUB-H7, and it works well. Here's an example of how this would be connected:
iDevice w/ USB Camera Adapter --USB-> Powered hub --USB-> D3 --Mini-> Speakers/Headphones
D3 can easily drive headphones with impedances as low as 10 ohms.
The D3 is a USB Plug-and-Play audio device. This means that the drivers it uses are developed and provided by the developer of your computers operating system. In the case of a Windows PC for example, these drivers are provided by Microsoft, and are a part of Windows.
The D3 is essentially a very high end external sound card. Its components and implementation make it more capable than what might be built in to a computer, not to mention the benefit of moving those sensitive components external to the potentially noisy interior of your computer. All of this means the signal your speakers receive will be clearer, with a lower noise-floor, and with a more pronounced dynamic range over your internal sound card.
Plug the D3 into a USB port on your computer (If possible, pick the higher speed port), and plug your headphones, powered speakers, or stereo system into the minijack output at the end of the D3. If using a Mac, go to System Preferences/Sound, and select "Audioengine D3". If you're using a PC, no setting changes are needed as the computer will automatically find the USB driver. Now play music from iTunes or your favorite media player and that's it - setup really is that easy.
The primary volume adjustment for D3 is the system volume. This interacts directly with circuitry in the D3 to control volume at the output. You can also use the volume control of your media player, but this (if implemented incorrectly) can potentially affect the digital signal out from your computer, so is considered less desirable.
When issues do crop up in USB audio, this is a common symptom. The PDF linked below outlines the issue and potential causes as well as some common fixes.
The D3 is asynchronous, using dual clocking circuits to provide the greatest possible isolation between the system clock and the D3 DAC clock.
Although D3 may work just fine when connected to most USB hubs, this is not recommended as the data rate may not be fast enough for higher-resolution music. We therefore suggest you select a high-speed USB bus all by itself and don't use a USB port on your keyboard, for example.
Yes, however, note that 24/96 HD digital audio pushes the limits of USB 1.1 speeds. Due to this it's highly recommended that you connect to a higher-speed USB 2.0 port.
If using a Mac, open the Audio MIDI Setup utility in Applications->Utilities, choose "Audioengine D3" under audio devices and check that the format is set to 96 and the bit depth is set to 24bit. Also a quick check is to simply observe the HD indicator on the D3 while music is playing. If the data rate of the digital signal being sent to the D3 is above 48K, then the HD indicator will be lit.
In the Foobar control panel, under Preferences->Output, set the buffer length to minimum. A few customers have mentioned that WASAPI mode is more stable when used under WinAmp, so try that as well.
A customer recommended an app called Soundsource - http://rogueamoeba.com/freebies - which is an easy way to switch between audio input and outputs as well as to access System Preferences and the Audio MIDI control panels.
Your D3 will sound great out of the box and will get better over time. We do generally recommend to play music for 40 to 50 hours first before doing any critical listening though.
Try removing all other USB devices temporarily, and try each USB port on your computer one at a time to see which one works best in your setup. USB audio needs quite a bit of bandwidth, so for best results ensure your D3 is on a "High-Speed" bus and not a "Full-Speed" bus.
When connected via USB with a computer, the D3 acts like a USB sound-card. Because of this, once it's set as your default playback device, it should work with any application on your computer playing audio, and with any file format the software supports.
Most of the USB ports on TVs and such are not meant for audio output, but serve other functions. As electronic components evolve, this may not always be the case. Check your operating manual for your device to see if the device supports USB audio. If so, the D3 may work, but as of late 2013 most of these ports do not support USB audio but are there for other reasons.
There are some excellent online computer audio forums and a quick search will turn up everything you need to know about the best hardware and software and how to get started on any budget. Computer audio is quickly evolving so we suggest to check and make sure the information you find is up to date.
