Great Interface

The converter chipset is from AKM’s premium Velvet Sound series. The AK5552 is used as the analog-to-digital converter and the AK4490 as the digital-to-analog converter.

Both the AD and DA converters offer 32-bit processing. The Velvet Sound technology makes the finest details audible thanks to its low-distortion architecture.

In the headphone amplifier is the Phonitor Matrix, with adjustable crossfeed, thanks to which you can create mixes with headphones that sound the same on speakers.

The Marc One has an excellent audio quality, the build quality is very good / rock solid (Made in Germany) and the drivers have a top latency:

Safe Modus activ: 128: IN: 4.4ms / OUT: 4.49ms 64: IN: 2.95ms / OUT: 2.49ms 32: IN: 2.22ms / OUT: 2.49ms

Safe Modus inactiv: 128: IN: 4.4ms / OUT: 2.49ms 64: IN: 2.95ms / OUT: 1.50ms 32: IN: 2.22ms / OUT: 1.50ms

System: Windows 10 Home 64bit, AMD 5800X, B550, 32GB
