hey guys another review from audio head
here today we have thus entrance deck
port Alex this is a standalone DAC
without a headphone amplifier that does
24-bit 96k USB connectivity so it's got
a small little box here it's a small
unit you can generally use this for
portable applications but of course you
can always burn it straight into your
stereo at home inside the box you can
see that it comes with a USB - a mini
USB connection here that goes from your
computer also we have some paperwork
this is the unit here it also comes with
this pouch for the units as you can see
this is us like a cigar-shaped very tiny
nice USB DAC the connector on this end
is a little bit different in that it is
your standard it looks like your
standard big headphone jack but is not
it is meant merely as a lineout you can
see here on the back there's the
connection for the USB this thing's
really got a nice feature in that it is
powered solely through or powered solely
through the USB which is kind of nice if
you're on the go it doesn't require a
separate power connection to the outlet
so really a big plus for portability
there you can also see there is a single
LED light here to let you know that it's
on so you know in is as far as this
connector goes you can really you know
use adapters to change the connection if
you wanted to enough to fit another
thing but sentence does sell a reference
series cable I believe this cable runs
about $100 here see it that fits
obviously perfectly right into there
really solid cable I quite enjoy this
one all the connectors are top-notch
excellent sheathing and
very seems very very durable this
thing's a kind of a beast delicated so
for another hundred bucks you can grab
this puppy and they'll go right your
computer straight into your stereo at
home so desired if you are on the go you
can also plug this into an adapter or
they RCA bet back of your favorite
headphone amplifier if you wanted to go
that route you can also use this for
your stereo applications of course if
you want to run your computer out this
is not include a headphone amplifier
directly in there there's the DAC port
without the LX is included does have one
built-in on top I find this one's pretty
nice though I like the versatility this
allows you to kind of run your USB out
from your computer into the headphone
amplifier for your choice so if you
really want to like do that up on your
desktop this is you know this is one of
the possibilities in order to do that I
found the sound this is very smooth
centrist uses their own proprietary
jitter guard it's called jitter guard
for to manage the transfer of the audio
so it's not your typical asynchronous
however as far as your guard is
concerned I did not notice any issues it
was actually quite nice pretty much free
from jitter very smooth sounding at this
price point I do feel like this is one
of the better sounding backs it's really
nice it flows very well it's not overly
color in any direction that I mean that
would be a DAC especially there would be
kind of a big no-no it's just nice and
clean like you could look attack to
behave so very nice on that side kudos
to you guys that Sentra's for that and
it's it's nice you know one of the
drawbacks I did notice it did run a
little hot to the touch so if you do you
know don't stick this in your pocket
when you're using it because it gets a
little bit warm besides that I mean
that's not that's not a big issue at all
if you're just sitting on your desk like
so so pretty nice unit
I really did enjoy it so that about
wraps it up if you guys have any
