The NuPrime uDSD is a high resolution digital-to-analog headphone amp and converter which, for less than $200, will give audiophiles the ability to enjoy a high-fidelity music listening experience. The uDSD is capable of working with the latest high resolution digital formats but is also capable of supporting Direct-Stream Digital decoding.
The device is roughly palm-sized and offers more output options than competitors such as the Cambridge Audio DacMagic XS. Regardless of what audio format you favor, the uDSD has you covered.
Avid audiophiles know that music is recorded in the studio at a certain format but then converted to a lower resolution format so that it can be distributed to consumers. For those unwilling to compromise on studio-level quality but reluctant to pay top dollar, the NuPrime UDSD is an excellent option.
