CES 2015

Aurender had a cool hand-size device in their room that not only functions as a normal DAC/Headphone amp for portable use, but also sports optional mSATA storage up to 1TB(!!) of user installable SSD, turning the thing into a player. I must admit the form factor for the FLOW is pretty seductive with a large velocity sensitive volume knob on the front and smooth satin aluminum case.

The FLOW handles 32/384 PCM as well as DSD64/128 and in addition to its USB 3.0 and SPDIF optical inputs, there is a 1/4 inch/6.35mm headphone jack. Price is $1,295 with leather case and is available now.
