USB DAC without audio delay (Movies)

USB DAC without audio delay (Movies)
3 CommentsSorted by Oldest First
Looking for a small USB powered DAC mainly with line-level out for powered speakers that will work well for movies without lip-sync delay. headphone amp would be useful, would like hardware volume control.
Most USB dac's doesn't have much delay, it depends on the computer and drivers. A few microseconds should not be noticeable. If you have wireless audio there might be issues, however apple players seems to normally correct this.
I use Windows 7, J River for music and Sharks codecs/MPC-BE for movies. I really didn't want any delay. I may try the Sabre U2 DAC.

will mostly be used as a travel device at a friends home in Asia with powered speakers.

thanks
