sorry, i didnt notice the second page and i couldnt find a delete button.....
 
nuforce claims an improved amplifier...to me it doesnt really seem to justify the price jump since the udac(1) is no longer an option.  BUT i havent tested the product so i could be completely wrong.

read the review and dont see much difference between udac and udac-2

The uDac is 16/44 while the uDac2 is 24/96. The uDac2 has a new linear volume control and an improved headphone amp.

i guess the icon mobile is supposed to take the place of the udac in that price bracket?  i suppose they were pretty similar feature-wise

Are the uDac-2 being compared yet?
