TIDAL is the first music service with High Fidelity sound quality, High Definition music videos and Curated Editorial, expertly crafted by music journalists.
Developed by Merging Technologies the world’s foremost manufacturer of high-resolution digital audio recording systems.
An astounding 25 years of industry expertise, combined with their renowned Swiss attention to detail triumphs in both the new MERGING+PLAYER and the MERGING+NADAC. Both models use the same Digital to Analogue Converters delivering the excellence of the professional recording studio into the home environment for the most discerning of audiophiles. Read on to find out which device is right for you.
The ROON integrated MERGING+PLAYER is a music streamer and pre amp in one making your life very simple again. The combination of the best music player available and the best sounding DAC allows you to access your music library remotely from a tablet or phone and connect directly to your amplifier or listen on headphones with the purest sound ever. It doesn’t get any simpler!
The original MERGING+NADAC was born out of the repeated request from Merging’s mastering and recording engineer customers to provide a DAC as good as their professional products for the audiophile home market. It is designed to be used in networked audio systems, but is also fitted with standard digital interfaces allowing it to provide high levels of performance with CD transports, media players, streamers and other stand-alone digital sources.
MERGING+PLAYER restores the concept of the audiophile music server. The combination of the best file based music player available with Roon, the limitless choice of streaming music in high fidelity with TIDAL and the best sounding DAC allows you to access your music controlled from a tablet and connect directly to your amplifier and speakers or listen on headphones with the purest sound ever.
MERGING+PLAYER comes in two flavours, Stereo and Multichannel, now fully supported by Roon.
The Stereo model with two balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA phone outputs + stereo headphone output with separate volume controls. The 8 channels of the ESS Sabre ES9008S Reference D/A converter are merged into 2 for improved linearity, greater dynamic range and a lower noise floor.
STEREOThe 8 channel model can be set at any time to operate in 8 discrete channel mode for surround sound music or stereo mode to enjoy the same advantages of merging 8 into 2 channels as the stereo version.
8 CHANNELMERGING+NADAC was born out of the repeated request from Merging’s professional mastering and recording engineer customers to provide a DAC for the audiophile market. For the music lovers, the high-resolution lovers, the purity lovers, a DAC able to reproduce the same experience, the same transparency they, as engineers, enjoyed in their studio when working on their Masters.
We carefully listened and designed MERGING+NADAC based on the Horus and Hapi architecture and principle, but with a lot of improvements expected by the audiophile market, like channel summing, dedicated headphone DAC, unique ergonomics and of course a superb looks.

8 CHANNELGolden ears have told us that our components sound incredible, but we wanted to see if we could improve even more. Removing AC power from the chassis and providing DC from an astonishing hybrid power plant using the highest quality components has achieved the seemingly impossible. If you care about the ultimate fidelity, this is the magic ingredient you must have.
Critical acclaim suggests that MERGING+PLAYER and MERGING+NADAC sounds amazing so that would indicate that our designers selected a fine power supply. There is a body of opinion that maintains that removing all AC components from the chassis should improve the performance even more. MERGING+POWER is the answer.
