ZuperDAC Ultra
The Smallest USB-DAC Tube Amplifier

ZuperDAC Ultra is the smallest desktop USB-DAC Tube amplifier that fits your everyday needs to enjoy wonderful music. Don't be fool by its tiny size, it supports different audio input sources ranging from USB, SPDIF Coaxial and Optical inputs. In USB-DAC mode, it supports audio content up to maximum PCM 768kHz and DSD 22.5Mhz sampling frequencies. You can also enjoy Hi-Res 192kbit 24-bit audio content by connecting to its SPDIF inputs. There are different audio output options ranging from Stereo RCA, 3.5mm unbalanced headphone and 4.4mm balanced headphone outputs. 

ZuperDAC Ultra adds another dimension to your listening experience by including a Tube amplifier section. You can select the Tube mode or Bypass mode easily through the front panel button. Unlike other Tube amplifiers which are bulky and hot, we use the Korg NuTube 6P1 Tube design which won't burn your fingers.
