Guys there are usb cables with dual power input that should fix any problems that might arise from this forever. They are $7 on amazon.
I've had external USB hard drive that supposedly only needed power from USB crap out with several laptops due to insufficient power.
Do get the O2 now because it's got battery powered where as the ODA will not be battery powered. It's so cheap and so good, why just limit yourself.
Really...the O2 reminds me of the Corda Symphony when I had it.
Just got mine, it's really small! why on earth they chose to put the inputs on the front I don't know. I could manage with the O2, but with the ODAC on top of it, the cable mess becomes ridiculous.
Is this supposed to completely bypass the amp of the computer? My Music Streamer completely turned off my imac's amp, but with the ODAC, I can still control volume with the imac.
I'll try to compare it with the Music Streamer, but my HE-400 is on loan and I don't trust AD700's resolving power.
