Two balanced XLR inputs and three RCA analogue inputs serve every analogue source, while the DM36 adds four Toslink optical inputs, two RCA coaxial digital inputs, a USB-B port, and a digital output, with an ESS ES9068A DAC supporting PCM up to 384kHz\/32-bit, DSD 256, selectable up-sampling, and MQA decoding. A second internal slot remains open for the SM35 Prisma network player module, which can be added at any time to bring the full Prisma streaming platform into the same chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe I35 DAC DM36 sits at the intersection of two things Primare does particularly well: high-power analogue amplification and high-resolution digital conversion. HiFi+ named the I35 platform their 2020 Editor's Choice and included it in the Top 100 list, noting it never exhibited any undesirable characteristics across any combination of sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHiFi Musik Sweden described the I35 as the most explosive and powerful-sounding amplifier in its price class, yet subtle and detailed with precision. Salon AudioVideo Russia highlighted a specific advantage of the DAC variant: pairing it with a CD35 Prisma gives two separate DAC stages in the system, with the SM35 Prisma board transferable between components as the system evolves. For listeners who want 150 watts of balanced-input power with a serious onboard DAC and a clear streaming upgrade path, the I35 DAC DM36 is a strong and well-recognised choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- KEY FEATURES --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0f527f;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e150W per channel into 8 ohms; 300W into 4 ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUFPD 2 all-analogue Class D amplification technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 x XLR balanced and 3 x RCA analogue inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDM36 module: ESS ES9068A DAC, PCM 384kHz\/32-bit, DSD 256, MQA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 x Toslink, 2 x RCA coaxial, 1 x USB-B digital inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelectable up-sampling; RCA digital output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSM35 Prisma module slot open for future streaming upgrade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDedicated RCA LINE and PRE outputs; home cinema passthrough\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC25 multi-product IR system remote included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRS232 outboard control; 12V trigger; 3.5mm IR in\/out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in black or titanium; 430 x 106 x 420mm; 11kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHiFi+ Editor's Choice 2020; HiFi+ Top 100 2019; HiFi News Highly Commended 2019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- WARRANTY --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0f527f;\"\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1-year manufacturer's warranty\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ph-warranty-box\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- WHY CONSIDER --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0f527f;\"\u003eWhy Consider the Primare I35 DAC DM36\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe I35 DAC DM36 is the right choice for listeners who want high-power, balanced-input amplification with a high-resolution DAC already built in, and the flexibility to add streaming when the time is right. The UFPD 2 module delivers 150 watts with the linear, controlled character that demanding speakers require, the ESS ES9068A DAC resolves PCM 384kHz, DSD 256, and MQA with equal precision, and the open Prisma slot means the path to Roon Ready and Chromecast streaming requires only a module, not a new amplifier. For those building a 35 Series system, the I35 DAC DM36 pairs naturally with the DD35 CD transport or CD35 Prisma via its digital inputs, giving two independent DAC stages in the system and a highly flexible signal routing arrangement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0f527f;\"\u003eIdeal for\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListeners wanting high-power balanced amplification with a built-in high-resolution DAC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCD, hi-res file, and DSD listeners needing PCM 384kHz, DSD 256, and MQA in one box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThose planning to add Prisma streaming later via the open SM35 module slot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e35 Series system builds pairing with DD35 or CD35 Prisma for dual DAC configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHome cinema setups using the surround passthrough input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstallations requiring RS232, 12V trigger, and IR in\/out system control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- WHAT'S IN THE BOX --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0f527f;\"\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ph-inbox-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrimare I35 DAC DM36 Modular Integrated Amplifier (DM36 module pre-installed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC25 IR Remote Control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower Cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick Start Guide and Safety Documentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- SPECIFICATIONS --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #0f527f;\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n  .ph-spec-wrap { width: 100%;
