A compact DAC that punches above its weight

The EarMen Eagle is a portable USB DAC that delivers high-quality audio from your computer, phone, or tablet. Powered by the ESS ES9280 C PRO DAC chip, it supports PCM, DXD, and DSD formats up to 32-bit/384kHz, ensuring detailed, low-noise playback. 

Fully-balanced SABRE DAC

Decoding is accomplished by an ESS ES9280 C PRO, a DAC known for its HyperStream®II modulation and exceptional low noise levels. With THD+N below 0.002%, it maintains signal purity and ensures a natural, distortion-free listening experience. Whether you're playing high-resolution files or streaming from your favorite service, the Eagle preserves every nuance.

Low-noise design for cleaner audio

Noise can ruin a great listening session, but the Eagle fights back with a high-grade power supply and low-ESR tantalum capacitors. These components work together to keep interference to a minimum, so you get better separation, improved dynamics, and a quieter background—especially noticeable with Hi-Res audio.

Gold-plated PCB for signal integrity

The Eagle’s four-layer, gold-plated PCB isn’t just a flashy detail—it minimizes electrical resistance and signal loss, maintaining the purity of your audio signal. 

Lightweight yet durable build

Made from aluminum with glass design accents, the Eagle is both lightweight and robust. At just 0.033 lbs (15g), it’s easy to carry in a pocket or bag, but it still feels premium in hand. Its compact 2.16” x 0.86” x 0.31” (55 x 22 x 8 mm)footprint means you can take high-quality audio wherever you go.

Simple plug-and-play setup

The Eagle features a built-in adaptive driver, so you don’t need to install anything—just plug it into your Windows, macOS, iOS, or Android device and start listening. Whether you’re using a smartphone, laptop, or tablet, the Eagle seamlessly adapts to your setup with zero configuration.
