681 Network Player / DAC

The MOON 681 is a MiND 2 network player and DAC designed as a complete digital front end for the 641 or another analog amplifier. Its MDE1 digital engine combines FPGA reclocking with MOON’s DAC implementation, while MHV hybrid volume control enables variable output without relying solely on digital attenuation.

A 4.3-inch OLED display presents cover art and track information. MiND 2 supports TIDAL, Qobuz, Deezer, HighResAudio, Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, and TIDAL Connect, and the 681 is Roon Ready.
