-Features of the Preciso chosen to maximize audio integrity without excess-



Florence, Italy. 7th May 2025 Volumio, a company dedicated to superior audio and design quality, today announced the launch of the Preciso - a high precision Dual Mono DAC. Requested by audiophiles and discerning listeners, the Preciso maximizes audio integrity without excess. 

Known for its growing community of audiophiles, music enthusiasts, and lovers of superior audio quality, Volumio has once again listened and engaged with users of its suite of products to understand the next-level features they would look for in a DAC. The response is the perfectly formed Roon-tested Preciso DAC.

Michelangelo Guarise, the founder and CEO of Volumio, who spearheads a dedicated team of creative minds, engineers, music enthusiasts, and audiophiles, commented on the Preciso launch: “We are incredibly excited to welcome Preciso to our portfolio. It marks a significant milestone as our first product that isn’t a streamer. We’ve poured hundreds of hours into designing, listening, and perfecting it. Preciso embodies everything we’ve learned at Volumio in crafting award-winning digital audio players, and is now ready to offer exceptional sound quality, staying true to our commitment to accessible high-end audio.”

The Preciso is priced at €799 USD $899, GBP £699, AUD $1399, and is available to order from today.

The key features of the Preciso DAC include:

Hyper-Symmetrical Dual Mono DACs

Dual ESS ES9039Q2M in perfectly mirrored, isolated circuits for absolute channel separation,  lowest crosstalk, and extreme optimization of the DACs signal path for an extremely wide soundstage and detailed reproduction.

Dual Linear Power Architecture

Independent power regulation for analog and digital paths ensures a noise-free signal without relying on external PSU upgrades.

Best-in-Class Where It Counts

Precision MEMS clock, premium OPAMPs, SMD design for ultra-low interference and highest stability, and an ASIC USB interface: all chosen to maximize audio integrity without excess.

Dual SABRE ESS ES9039Q2M DACs in a True Dual Mono Configuration

Unlike single-chip implementations, Preciso eliminates inter-channel crosstalk, resulting in a dramatically wider and more accurate soundstage.

Dual Mono Hyper-Symmetrical Architecture

Complete separation of left and right channels ensures crystal-clear imaging and a fully three-dimensional sonic landscape.

 

ASIC USB Interface

With an integrated dedicated USB audio controller—the same used in the award-winning RIVO+—to ensure bit-perfect data transfer with ultra-low jitter.

 

OPAMPs of the Highest Grade:

Only the most linear and dynamic operational amplifiers are used in the analog stage.

 

Single MEMS clock

Driving both DACs, ensuring impeccable timing and coherence. MEMS clocks are widely regarded as the most accurate available, and in Preciso, this translates to absolute musical fidelity.
