Works with Many Devices
Whether your streaming audio from an iPhone, an Android device (5.1 or above), or your computer, the iBasso DC03 will handle the job. Windows XP, 7, and 8 require a downloadable driver, but Windows 10 and macOS platforms do not.

The device is outfitted with a USB Type-C port to better work with modern-day devices. However, a USB Type-C to USB Type-A adapter is included to bolster compatibility.

The device makes use of dual Cirrus Logic CS43131 Master HiFi DAC Chips for an impeccable sound, delivering an ultraislow noise floor for PCM and DSD audio. It also provides a twisted 4-wire audiophile-grade cable to ensure no signal i lost between your source device, the DAC, and your headphones. The DC03 uses a standard UAC 2.0 soundcard chipset; it's plug and play right out of the box for macOS and Windows 10 devices. 
Note:
On some Android devices, it may be necessary to manually turn on the OTG function in the system settings.
