NY Audio & AV 2012

The Red Wine Audio room featured their LFP battery-powered Isabella Preamplifer with the Isabellina Pro DAC option ($5,500). This DAC actually houses two separate DACs—the 24/192k Wolfson DAC for high rez and an NOS DAC for 16/44 (selectable with a toggle switch). Inputs include USB (16/48k) and S/PDIF (Coax and Optical 24/192k) and as you can see it sat atop the MSB Platinum Data CD IV ($3,995).

The rest of the system included the production premier of the Red Wine Audio Liliana monoblock amplifiers ($6,000/pair) driving the Kudos Cardea C20 speakers ($6,000/pair).
