2005 Was an incredible year for music enthusiasts and audiophiles alike. That was the year that NuForce was founded, and that was the year that we would change the way we listen to music forever. For years, audiophiles have sought after a solution to the constant decline in fidelity. Smartphones only added to the problem, as convenience appeared to be winning the battle over quality. Even audiophiles have conformed to the digital compressed media era, but now for the first time ever, can truly enjoy their music once again.
When NuForce released the Icon Ido Amplifier, owners of the popular selling iPods, iPhones, and iPads were spoiled rotten. An easy to use audiophile grade amplifier with a high grade DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) provided Apple users with a brilliant way to repair these damaged compressed files. A 30-Pin to USB cable was included in the box so owners were able to enjoy listening right away. NuForce saw this as a huge opportunity to spoil just about everyone with their magnificent build quality, and their easy to use amplifiers/DACs. The new Icon DAC features even more innovative technology, enabling this desktop amp to support multiple mobile audio devices and smartphones in a single product series. The USB Input supports audio playback and processing from Android Smart Phones (v4.1 and beyond with optional OTG cable) like the HTC ONE, Samsung Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4, Sony Xperia Z (and newer versions), as well as MAC and PC (with advanced PCM & DSD). This high-power headphone amplifier also features an additional audio input for "RCA" stereo audio input, supporting home stereo integration. The Icon DAC accepts sample rates up to 96 kHz and delivers fidelity that people could only dream about years ago. The 32-bit DAC also supports 24-bit low-jitter asynchronous operation while also providing Direct-Stream Digital (DSD) decoding capability. The built-in front 6.3 mm (1/4 Inch) input is an instant flag for audiophiles, and delivers the message that this Amplifier & DAC means business. Engineered to power headphones ranging a mere 16 Ohms, all the way up to the power hungry 600 Ohm Headphones. So weather your using your Android Smartphone, MAC, or PC, or attempting to listen to your Sennheiser HD 600 or HD 650, Beyerdynamic DT 880 or DT 990 (250 & 600 Ohm), AKG Q701, Audio Technica ATH-M50 Series, or any other audiophile grade headphones, the NuForce Icon DAC is the perfect choice and is sure to give you the best results!
