Link3 packs a brute force amplification within its sleek and compact design. While most portable DAC/AMPs are limited in terms of output power, the Link3 packs a punch. It delivers a massive 700mW in normal mode, and humongous 1000mW per channel when external power is connected. xDuoo has featured an independent USB-C power input port, which bypasses the source device’s battery and unlocks the special Super Power mode with 1000mW per channel output. On top of this massive power output, the xDuoo Link3 has 100-level digital volume control, which helps the user to precisely control the volume. This digital volume control is independent of the source device volume. So, whether you are using sensitive IEMs or power-hungry headphones, the Link3 has massive headroom to make them sing to their full potential.
