Customers who experience the DMS are consistently amazed by its solid foundation, expansive soundstage, openness, and transparent audio quality. The DMS-650 is capable of handling native 32-bit / 768kHz PCM and DSD 512 formats. Moreover, it is Roon Ready and MQA Certified. Like other DMS products, the DMS-650 enables streaming from various sources, including on-board TIDAL, Qobuz, Spotify, Spotify Connect, vTuner, as well as files stored on a network computer or NAS Drive. And if that wasn't enough, it offers three (3) USB-A ports for convenient playback from connected USB hard drives, flash drives, or even an SD card. For added convenience, the DMS-650 also includes aptX™ HD input and output, which allows for Bluetooth connectivity to speakers or headphones, along with Airplay support.
In terms of appearance, the DMS-650 features a slight cosmetic redesign. The black units now showcase a black-out look, incorporating a black display frame and black power button. Both black and silver units have a new "swoosh" design on the right-side groove, accompanied by a faceplate that lacks silkscreened logos, resulting in a clean and sleek aesthetic.
Additional features of the DMS-650 include Ethernet or Wi-Fi connectivity options, TruBit™ 7-step Selectable PCM upsampling up to 768kHz, selectable PCM to DSD conversion with 3-step DSD upsampling, and various digital inputs such as Coaxial (x2), Optical (x1), and AES/EBU (x1). It also offers Coaxial and Optical digital outputs, RCA and XLR fully balanced outputs, OSO™ Re-clocking, MU-MIMO Wi-Fi support, as well as a full 3-volt output and variable volume control for a direct connection to an amplifier.
