Centrance is the leader in USB implementation for digital analog conversion. Many DAC manufacturers (eg. Benchmark, Bel Canto, Lavry, PS Audio, and Empirical Audio's older products) uses Centrance's AdaptiWave™ code to achieve 24 bits/96 kHz over USB using native mode with the TAS1020B chip on Windows, Mac OS and Linux. Please note that this is an isochronous/adaptive USB transfer mode.
DACmini is styled to stack over an Apple Mac mini (but, er...pre-2010 mac mini??), making for an exceptional small-footprint music server. DACmini is also a versatile home audio hub, featuring a line-level input for your portable music player, an S/PDIF input for your digital sources, and a headphone amplifier that can drive virtually any headphones with lowest distortion.
