Apogee Groove Portable USB DAC & Headphone Amp for Mac & PC (Anniversary Edition)

Experience the power of 32 Bit / 192 kHz with the Anniversary Edition Groove. Hearing every detail matters and if you’re looking for the best solution to produce/mix/master records on the roads then Groove has you covered.

When you mix with headphone converters that boost frequencies or distort, it’s like painting with blindfolds. With Groove’s Quad Sum DAC design, you can trust what you hear. Thanks to Groove’s Constant Current Drive, you’ll hear a broader frequency response in your headphones – so you’ll never miss a detail. Groove gives you the ability to hear your favourite tunes in full 192kHz resolution.
