Generally the digital to analogue converter found in typical digital devices is pretty poor and won’t extract the truest quality of audio from your sources. The DacMagic 100 works by taking a direct digital audio signal from your device to bypass its soundcard or DAC. It then digitally processes the audio signal using our custom designed technology, dramatically improving sound quality and reducing distortion. This results in greater detail, sparkling clarity and a deeper scale to all of your audio.
DacMagic 100 is very flexible and supports virtually all digital file formats including the very highest quality 24-bit studio master or lossless quality audio files stored on your computer. With three different digital connectivity options and the ability to connect four devices concurrently, DacMagic 100 is a true digital music enhancement hub. Set-up is totally intuitive, allowing you to begin enjoying better quality audio in minutes.
Like all our products, the DacMagic 100 was custom developed from the ground-up by our design team at our headquarters in the heart of London. Our engineering teams put an incredible amount of attention to detail on ensuring the sound quality is the focus of the product, for the DacMagic 100 this included incorporating the very latest digital to analogue converter from market-leader Wolfson.

Is a DAC very Wolfson, the sound is very clean, spacious, and warm.
If you would like to obtain the 100% of your performance, you need to connect to a very powerful amplifier.
In my case, I connected that to Burson audio headphones amplifier and a Hifiman Sundara. and last I can feel all power of these headphones, I was can fell the all bass extension of these headphones, that surprised me.
I believe that the Wolfson chip is perfect for orthodynamic headphones. The ESS Sabre (More analytical DAC, is an amazing good DAC), but I can´t feel the bass extension how the Wolfson.
Functionally, this unit works fine.
Distortion and dynamic range seem crystal clear.
But, unfortunately, there is a very high residual clock-subharmonic / AC-line noise leaking
into the audio. This noise appears no better than 50dB down from peak output.
My NAD preamp is dead-silent compared to this DAC when the DAC
is powered on, but with no USB signal connected ( or connected and quiescent ).
White Noise performance seems okay, but is not up to the NAD SNR performance.
The unit seems sensitive to power supply noise levels,
and the accompanying switching power supply is not clean.
Replacing this supply with a clean linear supply helped.
Thus, overall, I am saying that the 113dBr SNR specification is misleading.
I understand the pressures of keeping unit cost down, but this seems to be a
design flaw.

Colis arrivé rapidement bien emballé.
Rapport qualité prix très satisfaisant.
Je n’ai pas mis 5 étoiles car la prise usb est vraiment courte !

I wanted a better way of playing music from my iPhone and this fits the bill perfectly. I run it through a Joilda 801A tube amp, which warms things up beautifully. Streaming music has never sounded this good and it also improves the sound from my Super Audio CD player. This little magic box is a great value.
