| British "WHAT HI FI" Magazine Verdict :
| HI FI REVIEW : BEST BUY of the YEAR 1995 |
Paul Miller : | "Monarchy's DIP ranks as the most consistent all-round performer and excellent value at just £245." ".....the 'jitter buster'of those tested to reduce on-line jitter successfully via both optical and coaxial links." HI FI NEWS & RECORD REVIEW, MAY 1996. | | |
Sam Tellig : | "Everything improved---clarity, mid-range and treble smoothness, spatial resolution, focus, bass extension and tightness. Transients were cleaner, quicker. There was a more natural decay of instruments in time and space---and not by a small margin. All of the improvements were so obvious I didn't have to strain to hear them." Stereophile, June 1997.

DIP Classic $ 250.00 USD
DIP Classic with Upsampler pre-installed Its main functions: The most dramatic feature is the Classic’s built-in precision clock. The original clock retrieved from the transport is abandoned. A new reference clock is introduced to hold the sampling frequency at a precision 44.1KHz(standard CD format, hence the name "Classic") This precision clock, at a strong signal strength, allows any conventional D/A converter to operate with far better precision and efficiency, resulting in higher definition, better instrument localization, wider and deeper sound field , and above all, more involving music enjoyment. The DIP Classic accepts all 2-channel stereo signals, with sampling frequency from 32 Khz to 96Khz. The output will work with ALL D/A converters. Price $249.- It is guaranteed to outperform all previous generations of DIP, except the DIP Upsampler which has different functions.
All Monarchy Audio products are designed primarily for 2-channel stereo. The DIP Classic and the DIP Upsampler would not work with AC-3, DTS digital signals or surround sound signals. The previous version of DIP 24/96 worked with some surround sound signals but the factory offers no warranty for this effect.
