The Camira is TIDAL’s reference digital-to-analog converter – and its performance is so radical that we’ve given it a new name: Camira DMC Digital Music Converter™. The Camira has been designed without compromise and offers true digital-to-analog output conversion, whether from PCM or native DSD.

The TIDAL proprietary Analog Signal Remediation Technology (ASRT). This allows us to restore the original analog signal from any digital 44.1 kHz signal, which is the most commonly used format and is included on every CD and all music streaming services. In a sound quality that is only known from native high-resolution formats or analog sources.

Description

Technical specifications of TIDAL Audio Camira

  • Purely discrete 32-bit non-oversampling 8x R2R Ladder DAC without pre- and post-swing.
  • Proprietary USB to I²S interface directly connected to the I²S interface of the ladder DAC – without detour from USB to S/PDIF > S/PDIF to I²S > I²S to DAC.
  • Proprietary ASRT² technology for restoring the analog signal: Field-programmable gate array for the most accurate time correlation between left and right channel incl. Timing correction and processing of audio signals.
  • True balanced output concept without sound-changing inverted signal generation (as with transformer outputs).
  • Each function module has its own power supply and is also separate for each channel on the left and right, for example for the amplification, the DAC, the PCM unit, the USB module, etc. A total of 20 low-noise power supplies.
  • The best cables are: no cables at all. This is why you will not find any connectors, cable bridges or similar in the Camira. The only cabling we use inside is an original TIDAL Reference silver cable with solid conductors and integrated air core directly connected and soldered from the mains input socket to the circuit board.
  • 3-stage input filter per channel
  • 2x 58 organic ultra-low ESR capacitors
  • Inputs: 1x S/PDIF coaxial BNC, 1x S/PDIF coaxial RCA, 2x AES/EBU XLR
  • 1 x asynchronous USB Class 2 input for PCM and DSD / DXD audio formats
  • Sampling rate up to 384 kHz.
  • 384 kHz / 24-bit PCM and up to DSD 256
