Hey there, 
 
I've been looking for reviews on the Yulong U100 but haven't been able to find any online. Does anyone reading this have any experience with the U100, perhaps in comparison with the Audinst MX-1?

Hey guys,
 
I've since found some info on the U100, but have read that it has issues with Mac computers (http://www.headfonia.com/the-new-recommendation-the-yulong-u100-usb-dac/)
 
Has anyone else found the same thing with the U100 and Mac compatibility?
 
Many thanks, 
Windsor

i'm running the yulong u100 from my macbook without any problems - i just plugged it in and it was recognized right away. the only thing that you might have to do is switch the output settings on your mac (a 30 second, super simple fix).
 
i can't compare it to the audinst, as i've never heard the audinst, but i really like what the yulong has added to my headphones (grado 225i and hd-25). i wouldn't say it it makes the hugest difference (though i'm not sure what does), but it adds some nice bottom end and fullness to the sound coming out of my headphones

@Samh: thanks for the feedback - may you continue to enjoy your setup.

@Samh: Can the Yulong U100 be powered from the USB cable?
