Hi!

Does anybody know if there are any portable DACs?
I mean battery powered.
I'm going to travel around Asia for over a year and it would be really great to have true audiophile portable music.

Thanks

AOS has the Piccolo (needs an external battery pack) which is a really nice portable DAC and the Sostenuto which is an amp-dac combo.

Info at http://www.aoselectronics.com/

Just out of curiousity, what's your source?

[edit]
Sorry...it looks like the Sostenuto's no longer being made.

Check out:
aos electronics for a few options from tiny to built into a ppa w/ battery board.
or you could go the same semi-portable route as me with the Ack dAck!. Actually I'm still looking for a portable transport, which would be easier with the AOS models as they take toslink and coax.
