well, i decided to order the upgrade circuit. at $65, it's whatever. I'll let you know how much it differs from the original udac.

could someone just order that and get a really cheap uDac2?  no casing or anything but wahey

 

[mmayer167]

yes, technically you could. IMO not worth it at all, the case add protection from stray static among other things...  not a good idea, plus your taking advantage of nuforce in a way.

just got it in the mail today.    initial impressions are good as expected, yes better detail and channel imbalance is fixed!   very happy for that. blue light is now a soft white. When i was swapping out circuit boards, the re-assembly didnt go super smooth. The udac 2 board doesnt fit perfectly... no bigs tho, it all still goes back together. very happy, if your on the fence just order the upgrade, imo very worthwhile for 65$.
 
cheers, M

yeah, you should totally abuse their upgrade policy till they stop offering it.

heaven forbid I should think of things that benefit me

Ordered the upgrade- should receive it soon.

 

[mmayer167]

cool, you wont be dissapointed, i definitely am glad i went to the upgrade!
 
be weary when putting the #2 in the original case, it is sort of a pain to get it to fit right... but it will.

Does the upgrade kit make use of ANY of the uDAC components besides the casing?

 

[mmayer167]

no, but please dont use this info to buy a udac2 without previously owning a udac1. that is morally wrong!!!
