Well it does. It doesn't say that it affects it in anyway. But it does have to go through a couple of extra steps before it gets to the DAC. That's all. Nowhere does it say this is bad and detrimental to the sound. dafiend wrote: > > Like this one? > http://thepihut.com/products/usb-audio-adapter There are no specs on that DAC so there could be anything in there. However I'm sure it'd work fine. But still, you can't call the HifiBerry expensive....at all. Even my FiiO E7 was 3 times the price of it and I'd regard that as a very sensibly priced DAC/headphone amp. Why do you seem to be trying to pick a fight and argue over something that was never said?
