The G2 is based on a customised ESS Sabre DAC capable of decoding PCM up to 32-bit\/384kHz and DSD512, with galvanic isolation separating the  digital processing platform from the DAC section. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit is capable of Tidal and Qobuz Connect, also Roon Ready and accessible via some third-party applications including mConnect. While the Lightning DS platform is no longer available for download, it is still functional if you already have it downloaded. Airplay is also quick and easy for casual listening. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor use as a pure DAC, G2 includes AES\/EBU, coaxial S\/PDIF, TOSLink optical and USB inputs. Four selectable PCM digital filters—Smooth, Balance, Dynamic and Precise—allow the digital response characteristics to be configured, with separate filtering available for DSD material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe accompanying LEO GX master clock uses a temperature-controlled SC-cut crystal oscillator with direct-to-DAC 3.3V CMOS output, operating at 90.3168MHz for 44.1kHz-based material and 98.3040MHz for 48kHz-based material. Communication between the LEO GX and VEGA G2 is provided through the included master-clock connection and Lightning Link, allowing the two units to operate as a synchronised digital system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndependent bench testing of the Vega G2 and LEO GX found extremely low distortion and strong jitter suppression, with the LEO GX providing additional suppression of jitter at higher sampling rates. In testing with 24\/192 material and deliberately introduced jitter, the VEGA G2 alone showed measurable jitter-related side peaks, while the combination with the LEO GX suppressed those artefacts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis particular Vega G2 unit has the internal clock disabled and will only operate with the LEO GX Clock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVega G2 Streamer\u003cbr\u003eType: Streaming DAC preamplifier\u003cbr\u003eTHD: \u0026lt;0.00015%, balanced \u0026lt;0.00012%\u003cbr\u003eDynamic Range: single ended \u0026lt;124dB, balanced \u0026lt;130dB\u003cbr\u003eStreaming Inputs: Network shared folder, USB Drive, uPnP\/DLNA Media Server, TIDAL and Qobuz streaming, Internet Radio, Songcast (limited)\u003cbr\u003eDigital Inputs: AES\/EBU, Coaxial, Toslink, USB B, Lightning  Link, RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet\u003cbr\u003eAnalogue input: single ended RCA\u003cbr\u003eSupported File Formats: AAC, AIFF, ALAC, APE, DFF, DSF, FLAC, MP3, OGG, WAV, WV and WMA\u003cbr\u003eSupported Digital Formats: PCM from 44.1kHz to 384kHz in 32Bit, DSD64, DSD128, DSD256, DSD512\u003cbr\u003eOutput Voltage: 4Vrms at 0dBFS (XLR), 2Vrms at 0dBFS (RCA)\u003cbr\u003eDimensions WxHxD: 338 x 84 x 300mm\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 7.8kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLEO GX Clock\u003cbr\u003eType: Temperature-controlled Rubidium atomic clock\u003cbr\u003eSupported sample rates:\u003cbr\u003ePCM: 44.1KHz to 384KHz in 32Bit\u003cbr\u003eDSD:DSD64(2.8224MHz), DSD128(5.6448MHz), DSD256(11.2896MHz)\u003cbr\u003eFrequency: 90.3168MHz (44.1KHz) |98.3040MHz (48KHz)\u003cbr\u003eOutput Level: 3.3V CMOS (Direct-to-DAC Design)\u003cbr\u003eOscillator: Temperature-controlled SC cut crystal\u003cbr\u003eDimensions (H×W×D): 84 ×338 ×300mm\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 8.1kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAUDIO CONNECTION QUALITY GUARANTEE \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✔️ Seven day warranty on Consignment*\u003cbr\u003e✔️Passed our checks for functionality \u003cbr\u003e✔️A full inspection noting for any defects\u003cbr\u003e✔️A full completeness check for all included parts and accessories\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Auralic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50515077202107,"sku":null,"price":6800.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2788\/2378\/files\/auralic-vega-g2-leo-gx-front_compressed.jpg?v=1790037926","url":"https:\/\/audioconnection.com.au\/products\/auralic-vega-g2-streaming-dac-w-leo-gx-clock-consignment","provider":"Audio Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
