I hope HDP will be good match for JH13

Specwise that is pretty respectable, about the same as the Zero 24/192 but if the SNR is about 100db you are really getting a bit under 17 bits not 24 bits, not that anyone can tell the difference...

That's a bold statement

Well, at least the uDac can compete with stuffs costing 5x as much, let's hope so

It might be sitting at my UPS Store mailbox right now. We'll find out this afternoon. I plan to burn-it in, but will listen right away and report to Nuforce any good or bad immediately. After some burn-in I will report back again, but I will post my thoughts in another thread.

Give a compare to the Woo 6 please, if ya don't mind =]

Also, is the thing able to be completely powered off USB? The power requirement on the spec sheet says 5V which to me would indicate USB?

I'm interested in the Icon HDP, but talk about it belongs in another thread. If you make one, please link to it here, so I can subscribe easily.

Thanks HPA! I look forward to your thoughts!

As Jason promised, Logan at NuForce replied to my help desk ticket saying that they'd send me a new µDAC ASAP, with a postage-paid envelope to return the broken one.

Bravo, NuForce!!!

Had I bothered to look, I would have noticed that Jason started a thread on the HDP way back in November.

I hope to be able to make a comparison when my friend receives his uDac next week

We still need a shootout between uDAC and the y1 Gamma.

I live close enough to HPA to bring him my y1 if he is interested in doing a uDAC/y1 comparison...

Whatdayasay, Larry?

I just read your more than outstanding review of the Udac and noticed that you mentioned the SuperPro DAC707. I have never heard of this Dac up until now and noticed you said that you recommend the SuperPro DAC707 for optical input. I was just wondering since it would be nice to get rid of one of my soundcards (Xonar Essence STX 49720 Op Amps) and replace it with the SuperPro DAC707 so I can still get the effects for my games (I'd still have the Forte).

I am unsure If I should choose the SuperPro DAC707 over the Udac though, as I don't know how closely sounding the SuperPro DAC707 is to the Udac.


My setup is as follows

Xonar Essence STX (49720 OP Amps)--> Little Dot MK III Amp---> HD600's

I am pretty much looking for a dedicated Dac. It would be nice to keep my gaming effects but not entirely needed if the Udac surpasses the SuperPro DAC707.

I think I'm going to live with my µDAC for a while so I thought about getting some feet for it, tiny sorbathane ones or the like, can any of you give some recommendations?

mine arrived yesterday. soooo sexy

and works like a charm with my philips hp1000. i was going to pair it with LD1+, but for now it has surpassed my expectations. great little device, no competition in this price-range i think.
