Mytek EMPIRE STREAMER DAC

Designed in Brooklyn by Mytek R&D Team headed by Michal Jurewicz, Mytek Chief Design Engineer, Empire Streamer DAC is a marvel of engineering: mounted on custom milled aluminum chassis, all components are of the highest „cost no object” quality and are easily accessible. There are no „moving parts”, no fans, no spinning drives. CPU is cooled though custom aluminum heat pipes attached to main beautifully designed chassis lid, milled from a single aluminum block. 

The DAC is the highest performance yet, challenging the most expensive DACs today. Computers are galvanically isolated from DAC analog board with computer/EMI noise eliminated by the „Faraday cage”.I7 CPU boards can easily be replace w future faster models. Roon OS engine / Mytek OS based Empire design is the most technologically advanced and best sounding hi-res music streamer available today and designed to be upgradeable for years to come.
