ddHiFi TC44A - Lightning / USB-C to 4.4 mm Single-ended

ddHiFi was founded in 2017 and stands for Guangzhou DD Electronics Technology Co., Ltd. In addition to DACs and headphones, the manufacturer primarily offers a wide range of different adapters. ddHiFi has set itself the goal of focusing on a concise and short design language, producing user-friendly accessory products and focusing on product material and craftsmanship details, while always keeping costs under control.

The highlights of the ddHiFi TC44A at a glance:

- Increased security through side port

- High-quality DAC - CS43131 from Cirrus Logic

- Native DSD256 and up to 32-bit 384kHz PCM

- T-shaped connector with optimised circuit layout

- 4.4 mm single-ended for best sound quality

High-quality packaging and flexible use

The ddHiFi TC44A is available in two versions, Lightning or USB-C to 4.4 mm jack. The housing is made of an aluminium alloy and has been CNC-milled - in the usual high quality of ddHiFi. With the help of the TC44A, it is possible to connect visually appealing, high-quality headphones via the 4.4 mm jack. However, the adapter remains surprisingly small, especially for this 4.4 mm connection. The inner workings have been optimally placed to improve the power supply.

No compromises in sound - CS43131 and Pentaconn

The CS43131 from Cirrus Logic was installed so that music can also be enjoyed via the TC44A. This high-quality converter natively supports DSD256 and up to 32-bit 384kHz PCM. On iOS-enabled devices, it is also possible to use the Lossless format via Apple Music. The "Pentaconn" connector only makes sense if the technology behind it has as few limitations as possible.
