Highlighting affordability without compromising audio quality, tailored for diverse setups like musical instruments, USB interfaces, and installed audio systems.

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cirrus Logic (Nasdaq: CRUS), a leader in innovative audio technology, today announced the launch of its latest additions to the Pro Audio product family: two analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and two digital-to-analog converters (DACs) that are designed to deliver exceptional audio performance at a cost-effective price point. These devices are tailored for HiFi playback, installed audio systems, professional audio setups, musical instruments, and USB audio interfaces.

Building on the success of Cirrus Logic’s professional audio components, the new ADCs and DACs further expand our product portfolio. These components offer a premium feature set with exceptional performance at an alternative price point, making them accessible to a wider variety of end products. This launch underscores Cirrus Logic’s commitment to meeting the needs of the prosumer audio market, providing more customers with access to high-quality solutions that cater to a broader range of audio applications.

“These new additions reflect our dedication to delivering innovative solutions that balance performance and affordability,” said Jonathan Taylor, Pro Audio Product Marketing Manager at Cirrus Logic. “By broadening our portfolio, we’re giving customers access to our technology not only for high-end products but also for mid-tier devices—ensuring consistent, outstanding quality across all levels of audio equipment.”

Key Features of the New ADCs and DACs

• Hybrid Gain Control: Enables precise adjustments for optimal audio capture and playback.
• Differentiated Digital Filters: Allows users to customize their sound signature for unique applications.
• Exceptional Power-to-Performance Ratio: Combines energy efficiency with high-quality sound reproduction.
• Ease of Integration: Supports diverse audio setups with seamless integration.

Designed to Sound Incredible

“In a recent series of critical listening tests, Cirrus Logic’s Pro Audio technology stood out conclusively against high-end, industry-recognized studio converters,” said George Massenburg, Grammy Award-winning recording engineer, producer, designer, inventor, educator, and CEO and founder of George Massenburg Labs. “Cirrus Logic’s dynamic range, transparency, and fine detail converge brilliantly with their relative ease of implementation— these are no less than the future of converters for professional audio applications.”

“It's inspiring to see Cirrus Logic continue to explore the boundaries of converter art and science with enthusiasm, and with innovations that promote the art of music and sound recording,” Massenburg continued. “Knowing that the new ADCs and DACs are based on the same extraordinary IP, I'm confident they will charm hearts and souls of listeners, critical and casual, with their musicality.“
