The same card also fits a B80 chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDigital-to-analog conversion runs through discrete BOPA14 NextGen Analog op-amps, with no integrated circuits or capacitors anywhere in the signal path. It supports sample rates from 44.1kHz to 192kHz at 24-bit resolution, with a dynamic range of 115dB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAnalog character instead of digital sterility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany engineers working in a small studio know the problem of compact interfaces that measure well on paper but sound flat and fatiguing over long sessions. The BDA8-NG addresses this with class-A BOPA14 op-amps and a capacitor-free signal path, reducing phase distortion. The result is a wider stereo image, more depth, and preservation of the source's original tonal balance, despite the compact, two-slot format of the B16 chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFull Mothership-grade conversion in a small studio\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineers working in tight spaces often have to choose between a compact format and reference-grade conversion quality, previously available only in large B80 systems. The BDA8-NG addresses this by fitting the same signal path used in the B80 into one of the two slots in a B16 chassis. Two BDA8-NG cards give sixteen output channels, and Avid delay matching plus switchable DAC filters let you precisely match the card to a Pro Tools system with no extra configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8-channel digital-to-analog conversion (DAC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDSUB (DB25) connector for eight output channels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscrete class-A BOPA14 NextGen Analog op-amps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero capacitors in the signal path\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvid delay matching\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJumper-selectable DAC filter options\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal path derived from the B2 Bomber DAC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to 16 DAC channels in a B16 chassis (2 cards)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with B80 and B16 Mothership chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChannel count: 8 (DAC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnector: DB25 (DSUB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSample rate: 44.1kHz to 192kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResolution: 24-bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response at 48kHz: 10Hz to 22kHz, +\/- 0.1dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response at 96kHz: 10Hz to 30kHz, +\/- 0.1dB, -0.3dB at 40kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response at 192kHz: 10Hz to 30kHz, +\/- 0.1dB, -1.5dB at 90kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic range: 115dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTHD+N: -96dB at full scale +22dBU\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOp-amps: discrete, class-A, BOPA14\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum channels in B16: 16 (2x BDA8-NG)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuild: Made in USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatibility: B80 and B16 Mothership chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Burl Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54240312557905,"sku":"60144","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/BurlAudioB16-BDA8-NG1_bd788747-28bf-4605-b03b-0fc859a7e35d.jpg?v=1783893618","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/de-fr\/products\/burl-audio-b16-bda8-ng","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
