I just stumbled across the Icon uTrack (link below). It looks really nice, but for the price, I'm wondering if it would be a good buy?

Thanks!

Pricewise, it's typical for pro audio interfaces of its type and size. In terms of the headphone output compared to other pro audio offerings, it has more power than others but the rest of the specs aren't as good. Can't tell you very much beyond that.

@Armaegis: Thanks for replying me :)
The official listed price is $257. In Hong Kong its around $190, in China its like...$120 Would it be worth the listen at that price point?
Unfortunately I cant find any component details of this :\

I'm assuming you haven't heard this before? :frowning2:

I've never heard of the brand... but at $120 that's not bad for the functionality that you get (assuming you need it all).

Heh..someone just put it on Hong Kong Yahoo Auctions :p
I only need a decent DAC and Amp, and this happened to have both at a cheap price...
The company produces Audio/MIDI Interfaces? (Correct me here) and not amps/dacs and stuff :p
So I dont know what components they use...

O wells I guess it doesnt hurt to try :)

Yes, it seems they are focused more on pro audio devices rather than audiophile dac/amps, but it's really all the same thing in the end. Best of luck.
