Modi USB: For Virtually Any Computer
Modi USB plugs into virtually any computer—Windows, Mac, popular Linux distros, Intel Chromebooks, as well as iPhones, iPads, and many Android devices—and requires no drivers. It features asynchronous transfer with individual crystal oscillators for the 44.1 and 48k sampling rates, and uses the USB Audio 1.0 standard over USB 2.0, and is powered by the USB port.
Modi Optical: For Airport Express, TVs, Gamers, CD Players, and Beyond
Modi Optical plugs into any optical source—from computer sound cards to Apple TV—and delivers great sound up to 24/192. As with all SPDIF components, it requires no drivers, and it’s powered by a small wall-wart.
