I just changed my QED usb to the Chord C-USB and the sound improvement is very good,i would highly recommend getting a good audio quality usb cable.

I use usb because i bought it to use on my pc and DSD and higher frequencies only work through usb,and as the 301 does not come with a usb cable i did not want to use some stock old cable i had lying about so bought a good one to go with it.

Well i'm loving my 301,got a new QED usb cable and a Chord Company C-Line 0.5m interconnect and loving the sound from it.

What hi-fi have a review online,looks a very nice dac,its nearly £200 more than the 301,no DSD and usb only does 24/96,the new m-dac+ does dsd through usb but is twice the price of the 301.

For a DAC that costs nearly 2 grand more i would hope its better.

Hi,i bought my ud-301 from amazon,i live in the uk but it came with a mains cable for another eu country,i have a spare uk cable but would like to know what fuse the uk cable should have in the plug,thanks in advance.
