I bought udac-3 few days ago. Because that's my first dac, I don't know much about those dac or Amp. Are there any advantages which are not included in udac-3?

KOREANKIDI love these DAC’s they have a V shape fun sound to them. I own the uDAC 3 but it started to malfunction and the mini usb connector is too flimsy. I currently run of a JD Labs DAC and amp stuff with the Objective 2. The JD Labs DAC is kinda dry. I added a Schiit lynx mini to it. I joined this drop because I like the fun sound from the UDAC series and the usb port on this uDAC5 is larger and is less likely to break off.

KOREANKIDJust what comes to mind: 1. The uDAC 5 had a more robust USB B plug vs the micro- USB of the uDAC 3.
2. The uDAC5 had support for more file formats (DSD for example).
3. The uDAC5 had a more powerful AMP section to power a greater variety of headphones.
4. The uDAC5 had a Saber DAC. ESS Saber DACs are highly regarded and used several high tier audio devices.
At this price I'm tempted to get one to compare to my other DACs, but might have to wait till the next drop as I just picked up a couple of headphones for the collection (HD6XX & HD600).
