Behringer, $30.63, Purchased from Amazon, Returned, Refunded
Behringer UCA 222 - For $30 what a great deal! The Sennheiser HD201 and UCA 222 may be the perfect $50 setup. Not very loud and not as musical as the uDAC, but detailed and fun. Not as powerful as iBasso D10, not as detailed, not as spacious, but a 10th the cost, pretty darn good!

- iBasso D10 - Smaller than imagined, Chinese BBQ smell, a little unnerving, also the potentiometer makes a click when turning on that sounds like something is loose. Not as well made as I imagined, potentiometer does not track well, from 6 to 9 seems out of proportion to 9 to 1. Makes me appreciate the uDAC craftsmanship. More detailed than 222, but not as spacious or detailed as NFB-12, makes me want to try Nuforce HDP. Curios about USB vs. optical. Black background.
- uDAC-1 - Not as detailed as D10, not as powerful, not as detailed. But for half the price pretty damn close.
- Behringer UCA 222 - For $30 great deal! HD201 and UCA 222 may be the perfect $50 setup. Not very loud and not as musical as the uDAC, but detailed and fun. Not a powerful as D10, not as detailed, not as spacious, but a 10th the cost, pretty good.
