My laptop is hissy, and it is even worse with sensitive earphones, like my Livewires.
I don't want to lug a dac and an amp, of which i cant afford, and i don't have the funds to buy a dac/amp combo either, so i need a cheap way of getting sound out of USB or a PCMCIA Slot. No fancy virtual surround sound cheapo dongles. I need reasonable quality, no hiss. As cheap as possible.
I'm after a Behringer U Control (UCA202 ONLY) I have decided!
Shoot me offers please! Ship to UK. Paypal.
Thanks In Advance.
Matt
GOT ONE, THANKS ALL

The UCA202 is only $30USD. Can't you find it in the UK?
It is almost twice the price here!
One us website wanted $88 to ship!
One went on the forum for $20 shipped, so im going to wait a while and see.
If i have to ill just pay the $55 it is in the UK.

I would like to suggest that you look in to a different USB DAC. I've had the UCA202 for about 3 months. It worked fine until one day it started to produce a hissing sound whenever sound is played. That being said, save your money and invest in a different USB DAC.

I Dont have much money right now, and need something small, and this has been tested with my earphones, and is tested as reasonably good, and succeed's in all areas i was concerned about.
Do you still have the broken/hissing one? I may be able to fix it up or send it back to BR for repair?
