USB powered digital-to-analog converter
CEntrance has introduced the DACport USB headphone amplifier, a 24-bit digital-to-analog converter. The device pairs an amplifier with the company’s AdaptiWave USB technology and JutterGuard clock-management system. For connecting headphones, the amplifier provides a 1/4-inch output and along with an adapter for 1/8-inch plugs.
Power is provided via USB, enabling users to connect the amp to a Mac, PC or Linux system. Additional features include analog volume controls and plug-and-play functionality with most laptops or music servers.
DACport can be ordered directly from the company’s website for $500. The package includes a belt clip, six-foot USB cable and velvet carrying pouch.
