DSAS Network Music Player £6,200 Serious Computer Audio Done Right
If you use computer-based audio, DSAS addresses the problems that typically compromise sound quality. This network music player tackles digital smearing and jitter – the distortions that make many computer audio setups sound harsh or confused.
How It Works
DSAS is nearly plug-and-play. Once installed, it handles your stored music library, Tidal and Qobuz streaming, and internet radio through the Audirvana interface. The app is responsive and makes finding music straightforward rather than frustrating.
We've found USB connection to your DAC delivers the best results, though network connection to UPnP devices works well too. The difference is audible: instruments occupy more defined spaces, timing is more precise, and the overall presentation sounds more coherent.
Every purchase includes three years of Audirvana membership, which removes the ongoing subscription costs that erode the value of many streaming systems.
System Upgrades Worth Considering
DSAS performs well as supplied, but three specific upgrades can significantly improve what you hear:
Entreq Primer Hexa QSA Power Cable
Helps reject mains-borne noise, providing cleaner power to the unit.
Stillpoints Ultra 1E Footers (Set of 3)
Remove a subtle haze around instruments – the kind of improvement that's immediately obvious once you hear it.
Entreq Olympus USB Cable with Olympus 10T Grounding Box
The best USB cable we've tested. The improvement in dynamics and naturalness makes other cables sound restricted.
Each upgrade delivers clear sonic benefits. Combined, they transform performance completely.
These work best in well-configured systems with good bandwidth. They reveal what's already in your system rather than masking problems elsewhere.
Why DSAS Makes Sense
We've spent over 50 years helping customers in Norwich and East Anglia build systems that work. DSAS sits in a useful position: accessible pricing, serious performance, and clear upgrade options as your priorities develop.
