Review: What's not to like? - Major upgrade to on board motherboard sound. Powered by the PC's USB C, so no need for an external power supply when connected to the PC. I only use my desktop Creative powered speakers, but when fed through quality speakers like the Ruark desktop speakers, the difference is noticeable. Also very effective upgrade to sound as a quality DAC when powered by the power supply and fed from my mobile to my Denon mini system (much improved on bluetooth). A solid buy and great value!
Review: Best dac i have ever own - I wish i give 15 starts £200 is nothing comperad to what you got man my sennheiser 660s become a speaker what the hell is this power :) and sound is quality amazing
