This thread is for discussions regarding the soon to be released Zorloo Ztella USB-DAC.

As a sucker for DAC/Amps in general and portable ones specifically I'm hyped about this new offering from Zorloo.

Interesting, like my Zuperdac-S so also keeping an eye out.

Automatic output level based on headphone impedance (1V for <150 ohms, 2V for >= 150 ohms)

Sorry complete audio noob here, just curious how the automatic output will work, it will just automatically adjust when something is plugged in? Seems like might be still difficult to drive some <150 ohms headphones with only 1V.

I ordered the MQA version. I'm happy with my Zuperdac-S but my new phone has USB-C only and I prefer a cable that is mounted to the DAC instead of using a separate cable as I'm using now. I also use the Zuperdac-S on my computer at work. I don't care about MQA, but the chip used in the MQA seems to have better specs.

DSD support piqued my interest, no use for MQA for me. Anybody know if it's DoP or D2P?

Haven't pulled the trigger, tho

I wonder how warm this thing gets while handling DSD or DXD...

Only 23 of the MQA vers left out of 600!

Wow!

Looks as if Alm 600 are gone now, still some other perks available though.

Seems as if the campaign has been very popular, only six days left of it now....
