Gustard Audalytic DR70 R2R

Key Features

• Proprietary Discrete R-2R Module (25-bit complementary): Resistor-based ladder conversion for PCM with direct, natural timbre and micro-detail.
• True 1-bit DSD Converter: Native DSD64–DSD512 path; in DIRECT DSD mode the bitstream feeds the 1-bit switching array without PCM conversion.
• FPGA Core: Custom logic for clock management, digital shaping, DoP demux, and seamless PCM/DSD depop switching.
• Femtosecond-grade CK-01 Clock: Ultra-low phase-noise master clock reduces jitter for improved imaging and focus.
• Three Digital Filters + NOS: Choose classic OS filters or NOS for minimal preprocessing; supports DSD passthrough.
• Network Bridge Onboard: Purpose-built playback hardware with the CelWare 3.x audio OS, optimized Linux kernel I/O and process control. Access bridge settings via dr70.local on your LAN.
• Modern I/O: USB up to PCM 768/32 & Native DSD512, Coax/Optical up to 192 kHz (DoP64), Bluetooth 5.0 with LDAC/aptX/AAC/SBC.
• Analog Convenience: Simultaneous RCA 2 Vrms and XLR 4 Vrms fixed-level outputs for easy integration with preamps and powered speakers.
• Power Architecture: Dedicated, independently regulated supply groups in a built-in low-noise PSU; also supports external 9–18 V DC input (optional).
• Ergonomics: Aluminum chassis (black or silver), LCD with adjustable brightness/sleep, and remote control support.

Streaming & Bridge

• Protocols: Roon Bridge, AirPlay, UPnP, NAA (Network Audio Adapter)
• System: CelWare 3.x; audio-first kernel, hardware-priority scheduling, adjustable background services
• Control: Enter dr70.local in your browser to toggle bridge protocols and manage settings on the same network

Digital & Wireless Inputs

• USB / Streamer (XMOS XU316): PCM 16–32-bit / 44.1–768 kHz; DSD DoP64–DoP256; Native DSD64–DSD512
