Portable 32-bit DAC and headphone amplifier

The WUQ D1 is a portable 32-bit DAC and headphone amplifier that also works as a preamp. It connects via USB or optical inputs to computers, phones or tablets and provides an RCA line output. The aluminium chassis measures 3.75 by 3.5 inches and includes a microfibre bag for transport.

Simple USB or optical connection with front volume

Plug the included USB cable into a computer, phone or tablet, or use the optical input for other digital sources. The front-panel volume knob gives precise analogue control and the unit draws power from the host device. No drivers are required for standard USB audio class operation on most modern systems.
