{"product_id":"dcs-varese-system","title":"dCS Varese System","description":"\u003cp\u003edCS positions Varese as its most ambitious system to date, a complete setup built from a Core hub, Mono DACs, a Master Clock, and a Transport, connected over ACTUS, a single-cable interconnect that carries audio, control, and timing together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt uses the Differential Ring DAC, which dCS describes as the biggest change to its Ring DAC architecture in a generation, with doubled current sources and a new differential mode for improved linearity and noise floor, synchronized across the Mono DAC pair using dCS's patented Tomix clocking protocol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mono DAC Pair, Master Clock and Transport are configuration add-ons below rather than separate purchases: pick what you want built onto the Core. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCore System (included in every configuration;
