Attention to detail
Before it could offer an unforgettable musical experience, the darTZeel LHC-208 was developed gradually over more than three years in our lab, where attention was paid to every last detail.
For the first time, you can listen to very-high-resolution music with non-PLL clock distribution, for an unparalleled analogue listening experience.
Future-proof
The darTZeel LHC-208 offers regular software updates, a single cooling system, a groundbreaking clock system and an upgradeable digital platform.
All for music
With five analogue inputs, six digital inputs, a dedicated headphone amplifier, and a touch screen, along with analogue circuits modelled on the NHB-458, the LHC-208 really has everything.
Except a pair of speakers and your music library.
