To further mystify matters, the Coax input can accept PCM data up to 176.2kHz, Toslink hits its limit at 96kHz, while USB is the stingiest of the bunch with a 48kHz max sample rate. In my experience, the less work a DAC has to do, the better the output will be.

You can also choose to do this conversion in software which is how I rolled for this review, using Roon to send the Cobra only 16-bit data. This means that if you send the Cobra 24-bit data, the DAC inside will truncate that file to 16-bits. As is the case with Audio Note’s digital products, the DAC inside the Cobra is somewhat anachronistic, in that it employs the Philips TDA1543 D/A converter chip, a 16-bit beauty. The Audio Note Cobra includes 3 line level RCA inputs that are joined by 3 digital inputs - Coax, Toslink, and USB. Audio Note is one such company that seems to have a near mystical quality to it, conveying a deep connection to the inner workings of music reproduction. As if just saying the name conveys meaning, to those in the know.
