C.E.C. DA SL

Japan flag

DA SL Digital-to-Analog converter from C.E.C.


High-end from Japan for the optimal complement to the TL 2N CD drive equipped with the patented double belt drive. A very ingenious combination that makes CDs sound almost "analog" at the highest level.


Color: Black, Silver


Read a detailed TEST REPORT from Fidelity magazine at the following link: Test: Belt-driven CD drive C.E.C. TL 2N with DAC C.E.C. DA SL › HiFi-IFAs, Der Blog: HiFi Test Magazin für High End Audio & Stereo


Thanks to its powerful ES9028PRO chip from ESS and the skills of the Japanese sound engineers at C.E.C., the DA SL sounds almost analog, musical, detailed and, in the best sense of the word, neutral with the ingenious TL 2N CD drive, meaning that the music signal is transmitted and delivered to the ear in the best possible way. CEC is one of the most renowned Japanese HiFi manufacturers - and has been for almost 70 years.


The DAC has the proprietary SuperLink for optimal connection of the current CD drives TL 2N or TL 0 3.0 or the older TL 51, TL 2 and TL 3N. Thanks to this digital connection with the new models via 4 separate BNC or a D-Sub-9 cable with the older ones, the sound image leaves nothing to be desired. The staggering of the stage in width and depth and the detailed musical flow are second to none.


Together with the TL 2N, the result is "a CD player in two housings" that has no sonic competition to fear.


Analog outputs: 1 x XLR, 1 x Cinch.
Digital inputs: SuperLink (4 x BNC or 1 x D-SUB-9), SPDIF/Coax (via 1 x BNC/not usable in parallel).
Power consumption 10 watts.
Dimensions (WxHxD): 435 x 104 x 335 mm
Weight: approx. 9 kg


Color: Black, Silver
