Hi there
 
Does anybody know how many mVa or watts a typical external DAC uses, particularly the 2006 HR microDAC? I need to know because I need to choose a stepdown transformer (220 -110v) capable of providing enough power. I also don't want to buy something too powerful as these things are expensive!
 
I have tried to find a number but can't find one anywhere.
 
Thanks in advance.
