Cw- I have the Music Streamer+ which is very nice sounding and costs about the same as the VDAC. I have not used it w headphones; I am using it to feed the digital stream from my music server to the NHT M00/S20 speakers I have in my office. I have not done any comparisons at all w the office rig, but I do believe it sounds very nice, in total.
Netbook to USB DAC to Headphone Amp on Batteries
Are there any good DACs that I can use with a laptop or netbook, which are either USB powered, battery powered, or rechargeable for at least a few hours?
I am very happy with my Lenovo netbook for traveling, and have a spare 6 cell battery which means I can work and/or listen to music for most of the flight to London.
My Grado headphone amp travels easily and runs for hours on 9 volt batteries.
So all I need now is a good DAC?
Would the HRT Streamer or Musical Fidelity VDAC work this way?
Thanks for any ideas.
