Audirect Atom3 HiFi Portable DAC Amplifier

When smartphones started doing away with headphone jacks, it brought into focus a new necessity for audio dongles—which opened the door for high-fidelity options like the Atom3 Portable DAC Amplifier from Audirect. This tiny little blue box packs in a ton of audiophile awesomeness into a form factor that fits right in the palm of your hand. Centered on the impressive ESS9280 AC Pro decoding chip with a femtosecond crystal oscillator, the Atom 3 provides tremendous stability when converting your signal from source device to headphones. The output power impedance up to 600 ohms of headroom with a wide 119-decibel signal-to-noise ratio. This, when paired with 120 decibels of dynamic range and less than 0.0004 percent harmonic distortion, ensures clean audio conversion with detail that's borderline atomic. Please note that the Atom 3 does not support iPad Air 5th generation.
