Introduction

Bricasti from the USA originally manufactures digital high-end products for the professional market. The Bricasti M1 is the first in a series of high-end products from the manufacturer. It is one of the first fully dual mono built DA Converters in the world. Additionally, the Bricasti M1 is one of the few DA Converters suitable for playing native DSD and DXD files.

Enclosure

The Bricasti M1 is built with CNC machined aluminum sections and heavy aluminum panels. You won't find sheet metal here, but exclusively resonance-free panels. Even the top and bottom panels are machined. Everything to improve sound quality. All parts are heavily anodized and engraved with text by laser. Built to ultra-high standards with a very long lifespan.

Technology

The Bricasti M1 is a fully dual mono built DA Converter. That means truly 2 Mono 24-bit DA Converters in 1 enclosure. Each channel uses a Stereo ADI-1955 DA Converter in a fully balanced mono configuration. There are 8 different digital filters available, including the latest Apodizing Filters (Minimum Phase) and linear filters. The Bricasti M1 locks at all frequencies from 16-bit 44.1KHz to 24-bit 192KHz and on DSD and DXD files. Various digital inputs are available. AES/EBU, Toslink, SPDIF, BNC, and USB-2.

Also, an excellent clock is used for the conversion. An ultra-low 6 picosecond jitter value is the result.
