NuForce uDAC-3

This product really helps delineate what you hear in a headphone. Makes cheaper headphones sound better and expensive headphones sound outstanding. No harshness and a truly great product designed for what it is supposed to do. Creating a product like this so compact truly amazes me. Good stuff!

nice usb dec

It is inexpensive and suitable performance. However, the volume knob is not accurate.

Accurate, Transparent and Inexpensive.

The NuForce Icon uDAC-3 is very straight forward, I'd go as far as to say its dummy-proof. As such, there is not fumbling with settings, firmware, cables, etc... Easily its best feature is that ease of use. Beyond that, the amplifier really brings to life any set of cans or IEM. I currently use mine with the Westone W40. Surely this amp doesn't do them justice, but in the amps price range there isn't anything else coming close to the quality. For those looking for better low end, I don't think this is you amp. It bring to life the mid-bass well and the highs even better.
