The Wadia 130 and 150 Analog-to-Digital (A-to-D) Converters are cost-effective solutions for integrating analog sources into music systems based on Wadia’s Direct Connect technology.  You can use the 130 and 150 to convert signals from analog sources like tuners, tape decks, and VCRs to digital signals and connect them to digital inputs on all Wadia Direct Connect components. That way, you can reap the sonic benefits of Direct Connect’s  pure signal path for your digital sources, and still enjoy analog sources as well.

Wadia 130 or 150 -- Which one is right for me?
The 130 and 150 offer incredible performance for the dollar. Both offer Wadia-quality A-to-D conversion and 24-bit output. The primary difference between them is sampling rate. With 44.1 kHz output, the Wadia 130 can be connected to any  S/PDIF input. It’s a great upgrade for digital recorders such as CD-R, MD, and DAT, or for Wadia designs without 96 kHz input capability.

The Wadia 150 utilizes the newest technology to convert your analog sources to ultra-pure 96 kHz digital signals. This new technology results in sonic quality that was previously unavailable except at significantly higher cost. Compatible with all 24-bit, 96 kHz inputs (featured on all current Wadia products as of July 1999), the Wadia 150 is your first choice for a high-performance music system.
