New release, great for the NU6 with iPads and iPhones on the go, and a USB C version is coming soon for my Walkman: https://www.ddhifi.com/productinfo/1350761.html
Oh, not just coming soon, already here This little data/power adapter from ddHiFi is brilliant. No need for splitters or usb-c to lightning adapters or camera kits. It's a small adapter with lightning connector going to your iPhone/iPod Touch and then one side with usb-c data output (for your usb dac/amp) and the other side with usb-c power input (for charging).
Here, took a few very quick pictures with iPod Touch. Ironically, I use the latest gen iPod touch for all my "iPhone" testing and its battery is dead, can't hold a charge for more than 4-5min. Now, I can test it for as long as I want to because I'm charging at the same time. Btw, also got their usb-c to usb-c OTG cable (Nyx series, TC09S model). Regardless of what I thought of a short usb-c OTG cable can do, this one gives RU6 a wider soundstage, and I'm still scratching my head because I'm hearing a difference loud and clear. The only secret sauce here is extra isolation of every wire and keeping data and power completely separate. Plus, core of the wire is pure silver while shielding is OFC and SPC.
