iBasso D6 "Fer-de-Lance" USB DAC/Amp

Ooh looks nice, whats the price?

EDIT: NVM I clicked through, looks like ~$250

mini audio's d12?

Nice scoop, pekingduck...

BTW, I want to try to do "Tea-Smoked Turkey" next U.S. Thanksgiving.  Any "Christmas Story" movie fans might find that amusing.  (Sorry for the off-topic comment.)

Anyway, less inputs but what about rolling?  Split case?

For those who don't need the optical or RCA, this could be a nice entry into DAC/amps!

(I am still happy with my D12...this is his half-French brother?) 

Fantastic - I am posting in a new iBasso amp thread BEFORE paulybatz or jamato8 ! This is a red letter day indeed - thanks pekingduck !

Oh, and, er, go iBasso - sneaking this one in under the radar. Unless its a fake, in which case I will have all traces of this post removed, CIA-style. The more I look at the casework, the more I am inclined to go 'hmmmmm ...' 

Wow should I go ahead and order one ? Nice catch 

The spec if I may Translate

1) It uses the TI TAS1020B，to convert USB to 24 Bit/96KHz I2S Signal

2) Dual WM8740

3) OP + BUF design

4) selectable gain +3DB or +10DB

5) Can be used as a standalone AMP or USB audio

6) Come with built in charger (switch to on/off) and 3 cell lithium polymer (battery life 20 hours)

Size: 55 x 24 x 100 mm

If the D12 is the new D10, then am I to assume this replaces the D4?

Stand by for an announcement very soon by iBasso regarding this new device!   It will answer many of the above questions.    I am, however, sworn to secrecy, but I can say that it it will be a "Killer"!!!   And yes, the Topkit will be available immediately!

How much longer till the announcement Hiflight? My wallet is getting impatient 

Windows now will put out 24/96 on the USB as will the latest Apple software. You have to go into the configuration for this to set up 24/96. On Apply you go into the MIDI setup after the USB device is plugged in.

C'mon Ron - are we talking D4-style killer or P4-style killer ?  I'm getting a little dizzy trying to keep up ...

any chance to compare to full-size amp/dac?

iBasso should be making their announcement on the 1st of Jan.  It will be a significant step forward and very well received, IMO.  iBasso raises the bar with great regularity.  Their R&D engineers must work 24/7!  Even more amazing considering the very small number of employees.
