It is no secret cellphones weren’t designed with audiophiles and music lovers in mind. Yes, they’ve got the capability to provide decent audio. You can pair your cell with a great headphone and your music will sound good, but only as good as the cellphone’s internal system allows. Meet iDAC, designed to improve your cellphone’s audio quality.

iDAC features built-in TI power supply chips which make sure digital and analog power function independently to deliver the purest of audio. iDAC is the first digital-to-analog converter to adopt an ES9018K2M hi-res DAC chip. The bite-sized DAC wotkd by acting as a filter between your cellphone and headphones thus enhancing the presentation of your music to 24bit/192khz DAC.

To boot, the portable converter does not require a battery. It actually draws power through the Lightning jack (or microUSB for Android users) when connected to a cellphone, that of course has some power itself.

The iDAC can be purchased for either iPhone or Android products, specifically iPhone 5S, 6S, 6S + and later as well as iPads and iPods that use a Lightning jack and Android products with a 5.0 system or later.

If this minuscule-sized DAC has piqued your interest head over to Indiegogo where the iPhone or Android option can be yours for $59 USD. It will ship to backers in January 2017.

iDAC comes to you from Taiwan-based company Sonicwave Tech. They promise to provide consumers with high quality, high value, and innovation featured commodities.
