Such was the positive feedback &#8211; with many passers-by asking \u201cwhen\u2019s it going to be available?\u201d &#8211; the decision was made to release the device publicly, and the ADI-2 Pro quickly took the crown of RME\u2019s best-sounding device to date.<\/p>\n<p>The range has since been expanded into a selection of high-end recording and playback devices that cover a wide range of applications. Mastering engineers use the original ADI-2 Pro to handle front-end conversion duties, whilst Hi-Fi enthusiasts continue to be impressed by the ADI-2 DAC FS, for its combination of exquisite DA conversion and powerful headphone amplification.<\/p>\n<p>With the entire product series built into compact half-rack 9.5\u201d casings, each one packs a huge amount of features and I\/O into a reference-class audio device that can easily slot into even the smallest of studios.<\/p>\n\n<h4>SteadyClock FS<\/h4>\n<p>Every product in the ADI-2 series features RME\u2019s SteadyClock FS clocking technology. This new and improved version of SteadyClock guarantees superb sound regardless of the reference clock quality.<\/p>\n<p>There is little to improve with the original SteadyClock, having earned its accolades over the years with flawless operation in numerous RME devices. SteadyClock FS improves on some already impressive figures by lowering the self-jitter specs to \u201cFemtoSeconds\u201d, and guarantees the internal clock produces exactly the same when using an external one.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">RME ADI-2 Series Overview at NAMM 2020<\/h4>\n<center>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4Onj4gBu8Hw\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" style=\"max-width: 100%; height: 540px;\" data-aspect-ratio=\"true\" data-width=\"16\" data-height=\"9\" width=\"576\" height=\"324\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n\tSee more videos at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/subscription_center?add_user=synthaxtv\" target=\"_blank\">Synthax TV<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<\/center>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zoom_RME_ADI-2_FS_45621.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-20734\" src=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zoom_RME_ADI-2_FS_45621-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"RME ADI-2 FS - Zoom - Synthax Audio UK\" width=\"329\" height=\"329\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zoom_RME_ADI-2_FS_45621-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zoom_RME_ADI-2_FS_45621-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zoom_RME_ADI-2_FS_45621-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zoom_RME_ADI-2_FS_45621-267x268.jpg 267w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zoom_RME_ADI-2_FS_45621.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 329px) 100vw, 329px\" \/><\/a>RME ADI-2 FS<\/h3>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/rme\/converters\/rme-adi-2-fs\/\" target=\"blank\">ADI-2 FS<\/a> takes a \u201cno-frills\u201d approach to audio conversion, taking the same advanced analogue circuitry of the award-winning ADI-2 Pro and offering outstanding conversion at up to 192kHz. Incredible audio quality and an attractive price are just two things that make the ADI-2 FS a fantastic and affordable entry point into RME\u2019s professional converter series.<\/p>\n<p>Its first-class conversion is further bolstered by its outstanding compatibility. The ADI-2 FS features two balanced analogue inputs via XLR\/TRS combo connections and dedicated XLR and line level outputs,  for capturing signals from an analogue mixing console or other high-end outboard gear. Like the ADI-2 Pro, the analogue inputs offer outstandingly low noise and distortion values, as well as an extended frequency response (right down to 5Hz!).<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the available digital I\/O covers SPDIF, AES and ADAT formats, allowing for quick connection to a range of setups, with ADAT I\/O in particular found on a wide range of audio interfaces from any manufacturer. As such, studio users can easily integrate the ADI-2 FS into their existing setup simply by connecting an ADAT optical cable (or two) to both devices, instantly benefitting from the high-end sonics of the ADI-2 Series.<\/p>\n<p>The ADI-2 FS features an easy-to-operate front panel, with input and output monitoring at a glance and level control available at the turn of a knob.<\/p>\n<p>Like the rest of the ADI-2 series, the ADI-2 FS features a high-quality, high-power headphone output. This is based around the proven High Power output found on many of RME\u2019s other products, and with a maximum output level of +19 dBu and very low output noise, the ADI-2 FS operates universally with all headphone driver types.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/rme\/converters\/rme-adi-2-fs\/\" target=\"blank\">Click here for more on the RME ADI-2 FS<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-Pro-FS-R-Black-Edition-Front-Synthax-Audio-UK-Crop.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-2\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-20754\" src=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-Pro-FS-R-Black-Edition-Front-Synthax-Audio-UK-Crop-300x72.jpg\" alt=\"RME-ADI-2-Pro-FS-R-Black-Edition---Front---Synthax-Audio-UK---Crop\" width=\"500\" height=\"120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-Pro-FS-R-Black-Edition-Front-Synthax-Audio-UK-Crop-300x72.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-Pro-FS-R-Black-Edition-Front-Synthax-Audio-UK-Crop-768x184.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-Pro-FS-R-Black-Edition-Front-Synthax-Audio-UK-Crop.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a>RME ADI-2 Pro FS R Black Edition<\/h3>\n<p>Building on the incredible, reference-class conversion of the ADI-2 Pro FS, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/rme\/converters\/rme-adi-2-fs-r\/\" target=\"blank\">ADI-2 Pro FS R Black Edition <\/a> is the perfect choice for a wide variety of professional audio applications.<\/p>\n<p>The Black Edition adds a sleek all-black look and a comprehensive multi-function remote control to an already impressive package (scroll down for more on the remote) &#8211; with these additions, the new-look ADI-2 Pro FS R is now also the perfect companion for hi-fi enthusiasts, alongside its use as a professional studio tool.<\/p>\n<p>A large front panel display allows for easy viewing of a whole host of features, which include 5-band parametric EQs; adjustable Bass\/Treble controls with quick access; a binaural crossfeed function (more on that below); adjustable loudness filters and many more.

This means the incredible audio conversion of the ADI-2 Pro FS R is available for use with an iPhone or iPad.<\/p>\n<h4>Ultra-Fidelity 768kHz conversion<\/h4>\n<p>Aiming for the absolute reference sound, any detail in the ADI-2 Pro is special and has its own story. Supporting 786 kHz sample rate and DSD recording, two individual premium DACs are used for the two separate stereo outputs. The main PCB is an extraordinary 10 layer design with custom copper thickness, guaranteeing the finest undisturbed sound, as well as ample but separated power for the phones outputs.<\/p>\n<h4>Advanced Features &#8211; EQ, Loudness and Crossfeed<\/h4>\n<p>Both the ADI-2 DAC FS and ADI-2 Pro FS R feature on-board DSP processing, enabling advanced features like applying corrective EQ to all outputs (including separately for left and right channels), and a re-designed version of the \u2018Loudness\u2019 function found on many traditional Hi-Fi devices (see <a title=\"RME ADI-2 DAC FS manual - page 14\" target=_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rme-audio.de\/downloads\/adi2dac_e.pdf#page=14\">p14 of the RME ADI-2 DAC manual<\/a> for a more detailed explanation).<\/p>\n<p>Another powerful (and fun!), easily overlooked feature is &#8216;Crossfeed&#8217;. Traditionally when listening to music through headphones, audio is played back exclusively from the left and right channels, with no overlap between the two. When listening to live music or through speakers however, sound is of course hitting our ears from all directions, both from the location of the performer \/ speakers, and from reflections off of any nearby walls and surfaces.<\/p>\n<p>With Crossfeed applied, small amounts of the left channel are fed into the right channel and vice versa, resulting in a more natural listening experience which is closer to that of using speakers. This effect has also been described as giving digital audio a more \u2018analogue\u2019 sound, as explained by Alan Sircom in his ADI-2 DAC review for HiFi+ magazine. \u201cThis gives headphones a more out-of-head presentation and makes digital seem a little more like a turntable, in all the right ways\u201d Alan writes. \u201cThe sound takes on a depth to the image and an organic sense of physical presence that those of us firmly dunked in analogue replay will love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With the ADI-2 DAC and Pro FS R, Crossfeed can be applied in 5 increasing increments (or switched off entirely), giving you plenty of options to play with if you&#8217;d like to experiment with this unique aspect of headphone audio;<\/p>\n<p>1: 650 Hz, -13 dB (just a touch)<\/p> \n<p>2: 650 Hz, -9.5 dB (Jan Meier emulation)<\/p> \n<p>3: 700 Hz, -6 dB (Chu Moy emulation)<\/p> \n<p>4: 700 Hz, -4.5 dB (30\u00b0 3 meter emulation)<\/p> \n<p>5: 700 Hz, -3 dB (example how even stronger would sound)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/rme\/converters\/rme-adi-2-pro-fs-r\/\" target=\"blank\">Click here for more on the RME ADI-2 Pro FS R Black Edition<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-DAC-FS-Synthax-Audio-UK.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-4\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright  wp-image-20268\" src=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-DAC-FS-Synthax-Audio-UK-1024x649.jpg\" alt=\"RME ADI-2 DAC FS - Synthax Audio UK\" width=\"439\" height=\"278\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-DAC-FS-Synthax-Audio-UK-1024x649.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-DAC-FS-Synthax-Audio-UK-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-DAC-FS-Synthax-Audio-UK-768x487.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-DAC-FS-Synthax-Audio-UK-460x290.jpg 460w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-DAC-FS-Synthax-Audio-UK.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 439px) 100vw, 439px\" \/><\/a>RME ADI-2 DAC FS<\/h3>\n<p>Whilst the ADI-2 Pro FS R BE lends itself equally towards the needs of studio professionals, RME knew that with some innovation, a version could be created to meet the specific needs of home and Hi-Fi users.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/rme\/converters\/rme-adi-2-fs-r\/\" target=\"blank\">RME ADI-2 DAC FS <\/a>is the result of these innovations \u2013 a reference-class USB-DAC and Extreme Power headphone amplifier.<\/p>\n<h4>Reference-class DA conversion at home<\/h4>\n<p>Operating up to the same incredible 768kHz sample rate as the ADI-2 Pro FS R, the ADI-2 DAC FS focusses on providing reference class DA conversion for a glorious, high-end listening experience.<\/p>\n<p>The ADI-2 DAC FS also uses AKM&#8217;s AK4493 chipset in a special circuit variant developed by RME engineers that allows the chip to perform at its best. The operating figures are simply outstanding, with noise levels of 123 dBA, distortion less than -120 dB, or THD+N of -117 dB.<\/p>\n<p>Much like its studio-centred counterpart, the DAC has versatility at its heart, with balanced and unbalanced analogue I\/O; Extreme Power headphone output and a dedicated low-noise connection for IEMs; and Class Compliant USB compatibility. This compatibility makes it perfect for improving the output of an iPhone or iPad, with the connection made via a USB cable and Apple&#8217;s Camera Connection Kit.<\/p>\n<h4>Extreme Power Headphone Output<\/h4>\n<p>Hi-Fi enthusiasts wouldn\u2019t be without high-quality headphones for solo listening, reproducing every nuance of the sound they are playing. Modern headphones and in-ear monitors are incredibly detailed and sensitive with a dynamic range to match. For this reason alone, a headphone amplifier that does them justice is an absolute necessity.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why the ADI-2 DAC FS features the same Extreme Power headphone output as the ADI-2 Pro FS R, offering unparalleled low noise performance even with low impedance headphones.<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-DAC-Screen-Synthax-Audio-UK_14_12_2017.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-5\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-20772\" src=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-DAC-Screen-Synthax-Audio-UK_14_12_2017-300x125.jpg\" alt=\"RME ADI-2 DAC - Screen - Synthax Audio UK_14_12_2017\" width=\"400\" height=\"166\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-DAC-Screen-Synthax-Audio-UK_14_12_2017-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/RME-ADI-2-DAC-Screen-Synthax-Audio-UK_14_12_2017.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a>AutoDark Mode \u2013 performance without distraction<\/h4>\n<p>The finishing touches of the ADI-2 DAC FS fits it perfectly into any modern hi-fi or home audio system, with the inclusion of the all-new Multi Remote Control (see below) and AutoDark mode.<\/p>\n<p>Operation without distraction was a request made time and again by Hi-Fi users &#8211; as such, the RME ADI-2 DAC FS includes an &#8216;AutoDark&#8217; mode, automatically switching off the screen and any lighting for totally discreet operation.
