Violectric CHRONOS Overview
Small yet powerful, the Violectric CHRONOS is a highly portable DAC and headphone amplifier that delivers all of the features expected of an audiophile DAC in a pocket-sized form factor, including support for DSD 256 audio decoding and distortion-free 384 kHz / 32-bit sampling rates. Milled from solid aluminum, the CHRONOS is rugged and durable, with a sleek, beveled design, and it is designed for compatibility with modern mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops.
The CHRONOS sports one 3.5mm TRS output, for driving low-impedance headphones with up to 30mW per channel, and one USB-C input for driver-free, class-compliant digital audio input and a minimal power draw that will barely impact your device's battery life. This DAC comes with three adapter cables, including a lightning adapter, for connecting to various mobile devices, and a stylish miniature case to protect your device.
