The Cascade DAC MSB Technology, May 2, 2024

We are pleased to announce the next generation DAC from MSB Technology. This starts a new era—one built on twin foundations of innovation and experience. We began by reimagining the fundamentals of known DAC architectures from the ground up. Critical to the success of the Cascade DAC has been dividing the conversion process into three dedicated chassis and functions. First, all of the processing, sources, and interfaces that are necessary, but electrically noisy, have been concentrated in the Cascade Digital Director. Next, all of the critical low noise analog electronics have been housed in the Cascade Analog Converter. Finally, all of the analog power supplies have been moved to the dedicated Cascade Powerbase. This ideal component division enables sublime analog playback in any system and listening environment.

The Cascade DAC will debut at the Munich High-End Show in May 2024, Room E221. We are thrilled for fans of MSB to hear this new addition to our product lineup and production has already started. We currently have a demo fleet available for select listening events and the first customer units will begin shipping in July 2024.
