Sporting the same uniquely tailored DAC chipset and amp stage architecture from the GR 2, the Master Tuned edition pushes the envelope further with component-level refinements throughout, carefully tailored to deliver the balance and emotional potency that define Steve Levine’s signature sound. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery sonic decision throughout the re-engineering process has been guided by Steve himself, including two exclusive digital filters created in partnership with our engineers and available only in this edition. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe iDSD GR 2 MT is a true labour of love; the sound of a lifetime of studio experience and critical listening, condensed into a form factor that you can take with you everywhere you go. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0065\/4432\/6771\/files\/Image_7_e59d97cc-a86e-4e9a-b5b0-ec54599908db.jpg?v=1790954880\" alt=\"\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h1\"\u003ePCM1795.

It delivers the warm, analogue character we’re known for, but elevated with true 32-bit resolution, lower distortion, and greater dynamic range. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a current-output DAC, it gave our engineers complete freedom to design a bespoke analogue output stage, purpose-built to extract the very best from the chipset. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0065\/4432\/6771\/files\/Image_8_d91cb024-8f44-4605-a9c9-8a210b300b87.jpg?v=1790954924\" alt=\"\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h1\"\u003eAdvanced Amplification. \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rte\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GR 2’s new DAC chipset offered greater design freedom at the analogue stage, so our engineers set to work on a new approach. Class A op-amps offer a more natural analogue character, while refinement of the circuitry – now fully balanced from end to end – has considerably reduced distortion. iEMatch circuitry has also been upgraded with low-impedance MOSFETS. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is simple, but powerful - lower distortion, greater transparency, and more consistent performance over time. The iDSD GR 2 MT takes this philosophy a stage further, with upgraded components worthy of Steve Levine’s iconic sound profile. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe changes begin as soon as the analogue signal is output from the DAC chipset, with precision audiophile-grade resistors improving channel balance and delivering a quieter, more stable soundstage, while Audio Note Keisei capacitors in the amp stage add warmth and richness throughout the midrange. The result is perfection, redefined. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0065\/4432\/6771\/files\/Image_9_ced3e154-d095-44ca-90c7-7c3660b6acb9.jpg?v=1790954924\" alt=\"\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"scroll-story-heading-ace94auvoogxmcnhevaigenblock1af01597nq7mz\"\u003eControl, Evolved. \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"scroll-story-body-ace94auvoogxmcnhevaigenblock1af01597nq7mz\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA capacitive touchscreen OLED display brings direct, intuitive control to the surface of the GR 2 MT.
