Prism Sound Callia

Monitor the highest quality of audio with ease and precision via Callia from Prism Sound, a two-channel DAC capable of handling the most demanding of audio specifications. Monitor audio from your computer, or via the TOSLINK or RCA connections to enjoy the fantastic digital-to-analog conversion built throughout Callia. Listen aloud from either a balanced or unbalanced pair of monitors via the XLR and RCA output jacks, respectively, boasting a dynamic range of up to 115dB with an insanely low total harmonic distortion of -107dB. Push any pair of headphones with clarity and definition via the TRS 1/4" headphone output, with an independent level control to produce a dynamic range of up to 113dB. You can even match the impedance of your headphones for a supreme listening experience.

The internal magic of high sample-rates and dynamic bit-depths can be simplified on the front panel, giving you control for sample-rates up to an incredible 384kHz and bit-depth up to 24-bit PCM. Additional DSD compatibility via Prism Sound's "DSD over PCM" protocol allows for support of DSD64 and DSD128 over ASIO and WDM drivers, giving you even more flexibility for playback of encoded audio files. For monitoring, mixing, mastering and audiophiles alike, Prism Sound's Callia provides immaculate conversion for the ultimate listening experience.
