RME ADI-2 Pro 2-in/4-out AD/DA Converter

Reference-quality AD/DA Conversion
The RME ADI-2 Pro is packed with everything you could want in an AD/DA converter. Experience world-class sound with ultra-stable clocking and sample rates up to 768kHz. Convert between multiple digital formats including AES, S/PDIF, and ADAT. Record and play back DSD audio. You can also use the ADI-2 Pro as a top-tier double headphone amplifier. A high-resolution display makes keeping an eye on your levels and parameters a piece of cake and USB compatibility allows you to use the ADI-2 Pro as a high-end AD/DA front-end for your Mac/PC, iPad, or iPhone. Great for engineers and passionate audiophiles alike, RME has created an exceptional AD/DA converter in the ADI-2 Pro.




Quality construction that translates into world-class sound
The ADI-2 Pro is among the finest AD/DA converters we've heard here at Sweetwater — and it all starts with quality construction. Its main circuit board features a 10-layer design with custom copper thickness. Its internal power supply employs a low-noise design that delivers separate power to its headphone outputs. In use, the ADI-2 Pro exhibits an exceptional signal-to-noise ratio, minimal harmonic distortion, and a high slew rate via selected SoundPlus op-amps. Its entire analog signal path is fully symmetrical, balanced, and DC-coupled. The only capacitors in the ADI-2 Pro's signal path perform DC protection at its analog input sockets and have been carefully selected to avoid any sonic impact.






A myriad of analog and digital I/O options
Whatever signal you feed the RME ADI-2 Pro, it can take it. A pair of servo-balanced XLR/TRS combo analog inputs makes connecting your studio gear a breeze. Two separate balanced and unbalanced outputs on XLR and TS are also on tap, as are two Extreme Power headphone outputs. The ADI-2 Pro's optical S/PDIF I/O also accommodates ADAT and AES signals. Connect your Mac to the ADI-2 Pro's USB port to use it as a 6-in/8-out audio interface — no drivers required. Or use it under Windows with RME's rock-solid MADIface driver for full WDM and ASIO compatibility. Its USB port is also compatible with your iOS devices.




Loaded with unique features for unparalleled performance
The ADI-2 Pro has more features than your average AD/DA converter. ADI2Pro has access to Bass/Treble controls, a binaural crossfeed function, adjustable loudness filter, selectable AD/DA filters, four discrete I/O reference levels, auto reference level setting, auto balanced headphones mode, and more. Professional engineers will appreciate the ADI-2 Pro's onboard M-S processing, stereo width, and phase reversal parameters. You also get a spectral analyzer and 30-band bi-quad filtered analysis tool. Best of all, everything is easily visible on the ADI-2 Pro's high-resolution display.


Extreme Power headphone outputs deliver top-quality sound
The ADI-2 Pro is worth the price of admission for just the headphone amplifiers alone — they sound that good. Every ounce of this converter's quality DA conversion translates to the headphone outputs. Thanks to RME's Extreme Power design, you'll experience 0.1-ohm output impedance, a +22dBu maximum output level, and 1.5 watts of output power per channel. Each headphone output is completely separate, features balanced operation, and boasts the same 120dBA signal-to-noise ratio as the ADI-2 Pro's line outputs. Even with sensitive headphones, hum or noise won't spoil your listening experience. The Extreme Power design also incorporates current limiting, power surveillance, overload detection, and DC protection. Low power and high power modes are also provided to match your headphones.

RME — 20 years of innovative audio solutions
The ADI-2 Pro marks 20 years of RME, and their anniversary reference AD/DA converter makes a fine tribute. Whether you use it as a converter, USB DAC, audio interface, or headphone amp, you can be confident that the ADI-2 Pro will deliver the quality that can only be achieved after two decades of research, development, and innovation.
