NuForce Headphone Amp, USB DAC uDAC 2 Signature Gold Edition
Product Description
A must-have laptop companion! Discover digital music's true headphone potential.
The subtle brilliance of the Swarovski crystal gracing the uDAC-2 SGE’s volume control, along with the unit's lustrous gold-plated case, allude in handsome fashion to its no less attractive performance capabilities. For the eye as well as the ear, the uDAC-2 SGE cannot but enhance the most elegant desktop array.
With its extensive power supply, filtering capabilities and
charge-pump circuit as a foundation, the uDAC-2 SGE processes
incoming data via a USB audio receiver. A D/A converter chip
then translates the data to a 2V analog signal. uDAC-2 SGE's
performance equals or exceeds that of many audiophile CD
players. Its exemplary flexibility -- analog RCA, digital
coaxial, and high-performance headphone outputs -- is bound to
satisfy the needs of the most critical music lover.
