About the Overdrive® SX USB DAC/Pre

The Empirical Audio Overdrive SX USB DAC/Pre is a Sigma-Delta digital-to-analog converter with built-in preamp functionality and volume control. Empirical Audio positions it as a minimalist, ultra-low-jitter design available with either an isolated XMOS-based USB interface or an Ethernet DLNA/UPnP renderer interface, with additional coax and I2S inputs also supported. It is offered as a high-performance DAC/preamp capable of driving line-level outputs directly, and the product page describes it as a world-class converter with selectable filtering and multiple gain/volume settings.[1][2][7]
