Hey Guys! Recently got his thing, i own HD650's along with other things (but 650's are pickiest of all i have), i also have Chord Mojo, and honestly this thing outperforms Mojo with ease when driving HD650's. It seems to me that SS is more musical to my ear, compared to mojo. If you have any questions feel free to ask)

I think your comment just confirmed my purchase of the HD 6XX tomorrow.  I have both the HD and Slim so it will be neat to check out if there are any audible differences.
 
First post as well, but I've been lurking for awhile.

I ,myself, was amazed by its driving power! I have tried it with iPhone 6 Plus, Samsung tab pro (10 inch) and MacBook Pro, so far very happy with its performance!
Ps it plays very nice with BA as well.

Great device for a 100$ brand new!! Grab it) you'd love it. It improves SQ with a more high end USB cables. And good HP of course. Are you planning on using it with Speakers or smth like that?

  This is $109 right now after adding to cart on Buydig.com is it worth it?  Does it do true line out?

I have not heard it, but you may want to compare features against the Schiit Fulla 2 - it does have a true line output.

I don't have Schiit equipment unfortunately. So I can't compare. But overall for 100 it's a very good device. If you want to have TRUE quality and Good sound without ADs etc.

I have the Fulla 2, mojo, roland UA-10 plus several desktop solutions.  Mainly just curious about this device and if anyone has figured out a true line out setting for this.  My Roland does dsd and has a line out plus balanced headphone out but doesn't work with portable devices.
 
I'm basically just looking for something different to test/compare.

Is there a better amp+dac for under $150-200 than the dacport HD? Thinking of getting this while it is on sale for $110.. I have DT880 600ohms and only use it through pc. Portability is not relevant to me.

There's the new Fulla 2. Awaiting comparisons.

Hello, I bought a dacport hd and I have it setup with Windows 7 64bit. I have it set on high gain and the headphones are Beyerdynamic DT880 600ohms. The issue is I can't get music running in winamp or vlc player or amazon music program no matter what I do. Then I noticed it works through Windows Media Player. I have same issues with sound in most games, which simply has no sound. I don't understand as it is perfectly fine with my DT880 connected directly to pc..

The default sound device in Windows is set as dacport hd so I'm not sure what the issue is. I have the latest stable update centrance 7.4.19 installed and restarted my computer multiple times since. Is it a compatibility issue with dacport and Windows applications? If so, I will have to return it for refund. These same applications work fine when I plug the headphones to my pc directly rather than through dacport hd. Driving me insane!! Any ideas??

Did you uninstall the old drivers first?  I'm just running off memory and I think I read something about uninstall, reboot, update drivers, (not sure if it needs a 2nd reboot).  I have not hooked this up to my win10 machine yet, but it works perfect with my macbook and iDevices.

$109 deal is back.  I jumped on this the first time and it didn't last too long....
