WelshWizzard Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Purely out of curiosity I tried plugging in a Nuforce uDac via the Apple Camera Connection Kit's connector into my iPad and a pair of Ortofon eq7's - and I must say I'm impressed. It's certainly the most portable hifi I own - very sleek, very usable, and truly hifi, leaves an iPod for dust for sure. Will do more experimenting over the next few days, but so far, so good.

grokit Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Yeah, that's the combo I tried, a red uDac and red e-Q7, sounds and looks great. Next up are the Phiaton MS 300 headphones, in the spirit of the same aesthetics. Link to comment
Ralph072 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Hi, can you connect to uDac directly to the Ipad/camera connection kit, without powered usb hub in between? Link to comment
Sally Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Well, nice sharing, thanks! Would have a try when I at home, and would like to get more useful tips&experiences, though I have got some from ifunia iPad column on video playing, that's not enough! Live and let live. Link to comment
grokit Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I'm pretty sure you have to use a powered hub at this point. After one of Apple's iOS upgrades they changed the amount of power that could be drawn out of the Camera Connection Kit. I passed my iPad on before that but I have read that it works with DACs that use their own power source or an external power source, but not with the USB powered ones unless a hub is used.

WelshWizzard Posted September 19, 2011 Author Share Posted September 19, 2011 This thread is quite old, and whilst this was working when I first tried, it no longer does (since the IOS upgrade) - the message from the iPad is 'Device requires too much power'. Link to comment
Ralph072 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Pitty, that would have been too nice! What you are saying is in line with what NuForce mentiones on their website. Was hoping there was a way around using a hub. Anyway, thanks for your confirmation. Link to comment
