Coming to the UK in February courtesy of The Musical Design Company, and priced at around £1,000, Wadia’s 151 PowerDAC mini extends the American firm’s range of components aimed squarely at iPod and iPhone users who rate sound quality as highly as convenience. Inside the sleek casework is a Digimaster 24-bit/384kHz upsampling DAC with voltage gain, downstream of which is a current buffer providing 25watts into eight-ohm loudspeakers, and 50watts into four. Co-axial S/PDIF inputs, along with TOSLink and USB, allow connection to Wadia’s own 171 dock, amongst others.
