hat constitutes a mid-priced DAC? There’s a

ton of room between the least expensive high-

performance external USB DAC, such as the

$169 HRT MusicStreamer II, and the most expensive, such

as an $80,000 dCS combo stack. Almost any DAC that falls

between $1000 and $10,000 could be considered “mid-

priced” by some audiophile’s standards. So, while the $3200

April Music Eximus DP1 might be on the low side of mid-

priced for anyone looking at $10,000 DACs, it’s too pricey

for someone on a $2000 DAC budget. But for $3200 the

Eximus DP1 delivers a near state-of-the art DAC, robust

USB implementation, low-noise multi-input digital preamp,

excellent headphone amp, and a stylish looking retro/

modern custom enclosure.

Before we dive under its hood, let’s take a moment to

admire the Eximus DP1’s enclosure. If its carved aluminum

chassis reminds you of designs from Resolution Audio

and Constellation Audio, that’s because they were created

by the same industrial designer—Alex Rasmussen at Neal

Feay Design in Santa Barbara, CA. The DP1’s overall

look is modern and clean without being too sterile or self-

consciously retro. The gure-eight-shaped volume knob

reminds me of my rst Nagra eld tape recorder, and besides

being a nod to the past, the knob’s shape makes it easy to see

your current volume level from across the room.

Other niceties that I consider necessities include

provisions for simultaneously active balanced XLR and
