Product description

Digital music often sounds flat or lacks detail, while the source actually has much more to offer. The Audiolab The D7 brings that hidden quality to the fore and gives every signal the finesse it deserves. Thanks to the high-quality 32-bit ESS ES9038Q2M Sabre DAC chip, an open and dynamic soundstage is created that is immediately convincing. More detail, more natural sound and an audibly better balance make listening engaging again.

Whether streaming from a laptop, listening via Bluetooth, or connecting a CD transport, the D7 adapts effortlessly to any situation. In the living room as a permanent fixture in a system, or on a desk for critical listening with headphones. With support for high resolution up to 32-bit 768kHz and DSD512, and full MQA decoding, every source is utilized to its full potential. Flexible in use and always provide the best display, ensuring peace of mind and confidence in every setup.

The solid aluminium housing, the bright OLED display, and the logical controls make daily use simple and pleasant. With both RCA and balanced XLR outputs and a powerful headphone amplifier, the D7 is built to perform without compromise. Everything is focused on control, precision, and musicality, just as expected from Audiolab may be expected.
