i want a usb dac and wish to make a decision that is powered by facts and not how the case looks or whatever chink labels were slapped on the case because those literally mean nothing
how much do you want to spend?
and i want to spend as little money as possibru <$30
righto
one sec
i know fiio e10k is gud and i actually have one as reference but I'm buying stocking stuffers for the fams
inb4 cheapskate
SMSL dac/amps > fiio
if you can find any usb DACs that have the PCM2704 chip that have capacitors that keep your headphones from dying, theyre a good buy
i'd take one with a mini or printer-type usb port and on that property alone vs microusb
english pls
i'll take a look at smsl thx
oh no SMSL dacs arent under 30
i was just shitposting about your e10k
yeah seems like the better dacs have that chip
better *cheap* DACs [fixed]
yeah its quite a good chip
Texas Instruments
but i was wondering about alternatives
There is some Sabre DAC chip which apparently god tier but i can only find them as a unit for around 40 USD
if you want a good solution, look into the Behringer UCA 222
its an audio interface but that may be helpful
I'll upgrade to English; given equivalent usb DACs, I would steer towards devices with more robust connection options, such as mini-b usb.
how is a mini USB any better than fullsize type A
Micro-USB places a great deal of stock into the two spring-loaded teeth on their connectors, that may fail to lock over time, which I do not like.
micro USB a shit tbh
