Couldn't find any information on these anywhere, so I bought one and took it apart.
The sound on the headphone port is pretty good, a lot better than the Audio Codec on my motherboard (Realtek ALC1220/NE5532)
Not sure if it's a keeper, just fancied trying one and needed something to supply 48v to my Mic, can't test the input as I need to get a new XLR cable.
This isn't a review or anything, just wanted to get some pictures up of its guts and also to let everyone know what the DAC is.
Would have been nice to have the CS4272 in there, but all things considered that CS4270 does not sound bad at all!
Was expecting a lot worse for £55, it feels nice quality and really well built.
DAC: Cirrus Logic CS4270 - CZZ
USB Processor: XMOS 8U6C5
