Bundle contents
The LORDWORLD hip-dac 3 Titanium Shadow bundle pairs a portable USB-C DAC and headphone amplifier with AIRO Astra in-ear monitors. The DAC features an aluminium chassis in a Titanium Shadow finish, dual USB-C ports for simultaneous audio and charging, and balanced 4.4 mm plus single-ended 3.5 mm outputs.
Who this suits
Listeners who want hi-res PCM and DXD up to 384 kHz, DSD from 2.8 MHz to 12.4 MHz, and full MQA decoding in a pocket-sized device will benefit. The 400 mW output into 32 ohms and iEMatch switch suit sensitive and demanding headphones alike. Buyers needing wireless streaming or multi-room audio should look elsewhere.
Build integration
Connect the DAC to a phone, tablet or laptop via USB-C OTG; the second USB-C port accepts power for 7 to 10 hours of battery life from the 2200 mAh cell. Balanced 4.4 mm and 3.5 mm jacks free you from adapter cables, while LED indicators confirm sample rate without extra software.

Questions about this item
What source device and cable do I need to connect the hip-dac 3 via USB-C?
The hip-dac 3 has two USB-C ports; one receives audio from a USB-C host such as a phone, tablet or laptop, while the second can accept a USB-C power supply for simultaneous charging.
Will the balanced 4.4 mm output drive my existing 32-ohm headphones without distortion?
Yes — the balanced circuit delivers up to 400 mW into a 32-ohm load, and the iEMatch switch can be engaged to reduce noise floor for sensitive models.
How do I verify the hip-dac 3 is decoding a 384 kHz PCM stream after setup?
The front-panel LEDs display the incoming format and sample rate, so a lit 384 kHz indicator confirms the DAC is processing the high-resolution stream.
