The Aune Flamingo BT is a tube DAC with a built-in headphone amplifier. The device is actually a hybrid structure, allowing you to use a tube circuit to enjoy warm and mellow sound, or choose an op-amp section for precise and clear reproduction. Flamingo is a high-performance device that will also allow you to enjoy high-resolution files, up to PCM 32bit 768 kHz and DSD512.
Bluetooth 5.0
In addition to USB-B and coaxial inputs, Aune Flamingo has a built-in Bluetooth 5.0 receiver, allowing you to stream music simply and remotely, for example from a smartphone or tablet. The chip used supports aptX HD and LDAC high-resolution codecs for high-quality audio playback even in wireless mode.
7 Digital Filters
With seven selectable digital filters, Flamingo offers you the ability to tailor your sound reproduction to your taste and your audio system. The following filters are available:
- Fast apodization
- Fast linear
- Slow linear
- Quick minimum
- Slow minimum
- Adjusted Minimum
- Brick wall
Powerful Headphone Amplifier
The OP+BUF section, combined with the Flamingo’s high-current power supply, provides plenty of power headroom for the headphone amplifier circuit. Thus, it will be able to drive most headphones on the market without any problems.
Thoughtful power supply
Special attention was paid to the power supply of the Flamingo model. It allows a stable and clean electrical signal to be supplied independently to all audio circuits.
