TCG U-SKIN Portable DAC/Amp
Commute Converter
Every time you leave the house, you go from optimal amplification and decoding to whatever low-grade equipment comes embedded in your smart phone. While you can’t bring that desktop DAC along for the ride, you can pocket the TCG U-SKIN Portable DAC/Amp, a lightweight and compact device that optimizes all of your audio.
Note: At check-out, you have your choice of color between Blue and Black.
Low Orbit
Built with a powerful PCM2704 DAC chip and the industry standard OPA2134 op-amp, the U-SKIN handles up to 48 kHz, 16-bit conversion. With a strong emphasis on the low end, all of your tracks become more engaging with a warm, forward presentation and strong instrument separation. While the soundstage isn’t exactly expansive and the mids and highs can be overshadowed by the bass, the U-SKIN delivers unparalleled performance for the price point.
Under the Skin
With both an 1/8” and USB input, you can use the U-SKIN either as a standalone amplifier or an integrated DAC/amp. Surrounded by a heavy duty yet lightweight aluminum alloy shell, the U-SKIN features a BL-5C battery capable of going strong for up to 40 hours per charge. Giving you enough power to get there and back, a range of listening options, and an overall package that barely puts a strain on your pocket, the TCG U-SKIN Portable DAC/Amp makes your music as mobile as you are.
