While the straight amplification of the ultra micro amp is better than the portable desktop it is always worth noting that no chain is stronger than its weakest link. If your source isn't up to par you might get all the benefits of the better amplification. That said, if you have no intention of using the built in DAC the ultra-micro is probably the better choice. It's still a pretty sexy piece too, so much in such a tiny package!
