Caiman MKII

Home HiFi

Input and Output connections

The Caiman MKII input options are USB, TOSLINK, and digital COAX. The output is a stereo RCA connection. This output can be switched between a fixed CD level signal, or to an adjustable output suitable for power amplifiers or active speakers.

Taking digital audio to the next level

The Beresford Caiman MKII Digital to Analogue Converter is capable of reproducing music even down to the difficult to decode timbre level of both vocals and musical instruments by reducing decoding errors and power supply induced noise. The outstanding signal separation and three dimensional playback of the music also comes to the fore through the removal or avoidance of circuit design bottlenecks. Our highly advanced ultra low noise circuit layout has made it even possible to discard the use of muting relays or muting transistors in the audio signal path.  These simple design steps deliver a more entertaining natural and warm sounding analogue playback that revealing and High-End audio amplifiers and speakers would greatly benefit from.

Power supplies and energy efficiency

The Caiman MKII is also an extremely energy efficient DAC, which has allowed us to make it compatible with alternative energy sources. You can power the Caiman MKII from a 12Volt battery pack, or even a 12V/1W solar panel, instead of the included mains power supply.

Power Supply News

The Caiman can now also be bought without a power supply at a lower cost. This is an often asked for request from customers who already have their own 12Volt power supply, or are thinking of buying an alternative power supply instead.

Audio bits and sampling rate

The Caiman MKII advanced level of performance also makes it possible to recover and hear previously hidden audio signals, giving your music collection a new lease of life. The more generous 32 Bit dynamic range overhead and higher 768fs sampling rate also reduces signal compression and clipping from the original source material. The Caiman MKII has further been optimized for the decoding and playback of all the common and popular  audio file formats,  giving you complete peace of mind and freedom to listen to your music to the highest possible quality level that your audio system is technically capable of. The Caiman MKII is the ultimate complete, but affordable, DAC in terms of technical breakthrough and innovation.
