This power DAC has local feedback on the PWM signal, this provides compensation for the influence of the power supply on the signal and compensation for nonlinear distortions created by the PWM amplifier. Measurements show that with a load of 4 Ohm and 100 W, this DAC has a noise shelf at -106 dB (A). Or SNR = 106 dB (A)

If we recalculate this noise level into microvolts, we get that at the DAC output we have a noise of 100 μV.
If we take a speaker with a sensitivity of 96 dB / W / m and apply a noise level of 100 μV to it, it will create a pressure at one meter equal to 7 dB (A)
If we take the background noise level in studios, which is 20 dB (A), then at a distance of 1 m you cannot hear the noise created by such a DAC. For the noise to become noticeable, it is necessary to have a difference of more than 10 dB. Simply put, the noise from such a speaker will be heard at a distance of less than 30 cm in studio conditions; a more precise distance can only be found imperially, since it depends on the size of the speaker diffuser.
