Effective Immediately, WADAX will take over my role in the USA and handle the US market directly. This is now confirmed. For any US based inquiries please forward your request directly to javier@wadax.com. Javier will make sure your inquiries are assigned and responded to.
I am very confident Wadax will continue to give the same high level of service to the dealer network that I have provided during my time as the US distributor.
American Sound will remain the exclusive distributor for Canada and will continue to work collectively with Wadax to continue the work we’ve been doing over the last couple years to grow the brand globally.
Sincerely,
Angie
Atlantis REFERENCE DAC
Everything about the Atlantis REFERENCE DAC is unique to this product: the clock circuitry; PSU topology and distributed regulation; the implementation of the musIC feed-forward error correction technology; the totally independent, dual-Mono DAC and analog circuitry; the fully modular construction, allowing for future upgrades or updates of key circuit blocks; the physical separation and independent housing of left and right channels, left and right channel power supplies; the mechanical vibration management incorporated in the chassis construction – and that barely scratches the surface of a product that contains 23 printed circuit boards, 10 independent, purpose-wound power transformers and over 5,500 discrete parts.
“Atlantis Reference DAC is our matador in digital to analog musical conversion. Not only because we have touched almost theoretical measurements, but also due to the factorization of other aspects that were not considered before. I would cathegorize it as a holistic DAC. It will be our flagship for years to come, given it fully modular architecture”
“Besides the crazy bench measurements we have achieved, more transcendent to me is the way it connects with the performance, the interpreter and the environment. Never before I could experience a full rendering of all axis in such a wide and involving way.” – Javier Guadalajara CEO
Over 30,000 man hours devoted by passionate engineers and scientists to develop the most accurate and musical DAC ever designed.

Atlantis Server
Atlantis Server is an audiophile universal server. Designed by DAC designers to obtain the best results out of a top performance DAC.
Wadax has been producing servers since 2012, acquiring expertise and know-how and understanding all parameters and elements which influence sound performance.
Sound quality in a digital system is greatly dependent on the server used. That was our first conclusion, back in 2010, during our fundamental research on State-of-the-Art digital audio playback. Since then, an extensive R&D project has been active with a primary purpose: to provide audiophiles with a server that unleashes their DAC’s full performance potential.
