Experience the breathtaking quality of lossless WAV, FLAC, and DSD files, stream from Hi-Res sources like Tidal, and be future-ready for hi-res gaming audio with the GameDAC’s native 96 kHz, 24-bit support.

Top of the Line Digital to Analog Performance

The heart of the Arctis Pro GameDAC is the legendary ESS Sabre 9018 Reference DAC, revered for its unsurpassed audio quality with 121 dB of dynamic range and -115 dB THD N. This makes bass sound tighter, individual sound effects more distinct, and positional cues pin-point accurate.
