To a good external DAC it delivers a clean digital signal without jitter artifacts, so instruments are separated more sharply from one another. A tip from the workshop: if your DAC supports the I2S input, this direct connection of the clock signals often brings even more spatiality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the Munich M1T for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe M1T is for you if you already own a high-quality external DAC or are planning one. \u003cstrong\u003eBluntly:\u003c\/strong\u003e it deliberately has no analog outputs like RCA, so without a separate converter no sound reaches your system. This very reduction is its trump card: no unnecessary electronics in the signal path, full focus on the transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe missing puzzle piece for anyone with a good DAC who wants to get the most out of it. The M1T reduces things to the essentials and does that really well. With a linear Forester F1, it gains even more calm and dynamics. Whether it suits your converter, we'll work out at HD Zürisee in Wädenswil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the trade press says:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"Best Buy\" verdict for the Munich M1T – \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.connect.de\/testbericht\/silent-ange-munich-m1t-bonn-n8-forester-f1-test-3202212.html\"\u003econnect\u003c\/a\u003e, February 2022.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDigital outputs: AES\/EBU, I2S, coaxial, USB Audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNetwork: Gigabit Ethernet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterfaces: USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 for external storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating system: VitOS (Linux-based)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoon: Roon Ready certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions (W × H × D): 155 × 50.4 × 110 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: approx. 1 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScope of delivery: Munich M1T, DC power supply, network cable (CAT6), quick start guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I absolutely need an external DAC?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The M1T is a pure transport without analog outputs, it only delivers the digital signal. So you need an external digital-to-analog converter. That's exactly what it's made for: maximum cleanliness with no superfluous electronics in the signal path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use the Munich M1T as a Roon endpoint?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the M1T is Roon Ready certified and integrates into your Roon system as an endpoint without any trouble. You benefit from precise signal processing and can conveniently manage your library via Roon or the VitOS app.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich output sounds best?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat depends on your DAC. If it supports I2S, it's often especially worth trying, because the clock signals are transmitted more directly. AES\/EBU and coaxial are also very stable.
