This DAC/amp feels dense for such a little design. This is the cable you will need for charging and also for the iOS OTG adapter, which connects to that adapters USB female port.Įxcellent design quality all around. Glad to see they did not slap in a 5ft long cable and call it a day.
LARS EARMAN PORTABLE
The included interconnects are roughly 3 inches in length and play into the very portable conscious mindset of this product as a whole. I am super happy Earmen included the needed Android cables. I do not blame companies anymore for this lack of an iOS interconnect.Īpple forces us to use a god awful OTG thing that is large and cumbersome, so we can use a standard iOS data cable on that side of the absurdly long chain as it is. I am incredibly happy that they included them, but as with most DAC’s these days, no iOS cable. Inside, a foam cutout for the Sparrow itself, as well as interconnect cables. The box is a-typical, just a standard cardboard box with some printed media on it. I have reviewed half a dozen in the second half of this year alone.Ĭompetition is brutally fierce, so let us see what Earmen has to offer the audiophile community with their Sparrow. I have to say, the market for these types of DAC/amps has been flooded lately.
