ACCUPHASE DG-58

Digital sources

The Accuphase DG-58 is a 4th generation 'voicing equalizer' of Japanese manufacturer. The device won me over with its impeccable finish, top notch operation and a friendly user interface. It comes in traditional satin gold with high gloss wood side panels. The most importantly, it changes the sound for better and it does so in a very sophisticated way.

The Accuphase provides two options to deal with the sound. You can use one or another, yet I highly recommend using them both in the order that is recommended by the manufacturer for the results are the best.

| VOICING |

The voicing is a routine similar to the Lyngdorf RoomPerfect's Focus mode. It is easy to perform it as Accuphase made an automated process for it - take the supplied microphone, position it at the level of your ears in the listening seat and press a button. The DG-58 generates series of warbled tones across the whole frequency spectrum and generates a desired response...[...]

| EQUALIZING |

The DG-58's digital equalizer provides 80 (!) adjustable bands that can be manipulated within +/- 12dB. Choose any of the saved voicings.

Auditioning the Accuphase DG-58 is a defining moment. It is the first and only audio component that might receive 100% rating in Audiodrom's charts. For the trick with the DSD I cut back a bit, to 98%. Still, it is the best rating we ever granted.
