Wow – that is tiny.
Does it work off the iPhone? I guess the iPhone would have to power it? Wonder how long battery would last playing high def music and powering a DAC?
I’d be interested in hearing it. Pair with a good set of Shure or other earbuds, the size is right, tiny, and it might be a real win.
…. Just looked more into it. Appears to have USB B and nothing on the page about iPhone compatible. 🙁 Well maybe they’ll make an iMicroSTREAMER.
