Already owner of the DacMagic (first generation connected to an amp Creek Audio) I have always been very satisfied, I wanted to connect to my second amplifier (audio LFD) version DacMagic Plus. There are really more, for use with the PC eg via a USB cable quality! (Wireworld for example) + installing the Cambridge Audio driver (free) + the output setting of the PC "bit perfect ASIO or WASAPI" listening to as downloaded on Itunes or Amazon, the result is quality sometimes higher than the cd! Detail, clarity and depth of sound have more bass .The ... The headphone is correct, the preamp function is flexible to use and few handy .This little jewelery little revive drives (cd & dvd) whose mechanical remains good but its technology is outdated. ..Parfait to connect to a PC via Bluetooth and your mobile at any ... Now, to get good result at all, we must integrate this DAC in a string (cables to the amp) in accordance with its qualities. Certainly a plus and very good material, excelent converter for a price certe up from the previous version but in my opinion justified. Happy listening!
