Rightio, so here is the latest on the DAC offerings from Epiphany Acoustics. DAC related orders are not due to ship until the end of May/early June.

Stock will be limited to to ensure that you do not miss out, you can pay the pre order downpayment on the relevant pages linked to below.

EHP-O2D
PRE ORDER DOWNPAYMENT: £100
Price: £186.99

The EHP-O2D incorporates both the EHP-O2 portable headphone amplifier and the E-DAC into one small desktop enclosure.

The headphone amplifier section has been designed from the ground up to offer some of the best, if not the best, specifications and hi-fi functionality on the market today. This has been accomplished by months of development using top of the range audio testing equipment to fine tune and carefully select the most optimum design, layout and components. The specifications achieved speak for themselves. It is powered by the included AC adaptor suitable for your region.


EHP-O2 Retrofit Service
PRE ORDER DOWNPAYMENT: £50
Price: £86.99

If you already own an EHP-O2 amplifier, we can retrofit the E-DAC module to upgrade your amplifier to the EHP-O2D. The price for this service is £86.99. The DAC modules are currently on pre order, so to reserve your module please pay the pre order deposit below. Shipping costs are bourne by the customer.

E-DAC
PRE ORDER DOWNPAYMENT: £60
Price: £99.99

The E-DAC is a stand alone USB digital-to-analogue converter which comes in a small form factor aluminium enclosure with custom front and rear panels. Input and power is supplied via the USB input on the rear of the unit. The line level analogue output is via a 3.5mm jack. The E-DAC will take your computer audio to the next level and when coupled with the EHP-O2 provides an audiophile experience far beyond their price level.

This high end DAC is based on the TE7022L UAC1 engine ES9023 24 bit DAC chip. It supports 16bit and 24bit at sample rates of 44.1kHz, 44kHz and 96kHz. The on-board filtered power supply ensures that noise is practically non-existent.

The initial stock of E-DAC modules will be limited so it is imperative that you place a pre order to guarantee your DAC in good time.
 
For those curious, a photo is now available.... Looks pretty good, I reckon!

I'd be very tempted to say that it is better. That looks like a very good sound card, but of course I would be tempted to say that the EHP-O2D would out perform the sound card. For one, it is not inside a computer so has the advantage of a much cleaner power supply and much less interference.

I'll do you a special deal - if you do not find that the EHP-O2D beats the Xonar, I will reimburse your return postage costs. Sound fair? :D
 
Just to give everyone a heads up, AV Forums have just given the E-DAC a Recommended award.

To summarise: “The E-DAC from Epiphany Acoustics is a great little digital-to-analogue converter that punches well above its weight and offers great performance and value for anyone wishing to get better sound out of their computer.”

He loved it! :D
