IPhone 5S options for audio?

You can now get digital out from an iphone5 using Apple's Lightning to USB adaptor under IOS7. The iphone will not power a USB-powered DAC. If you do get a USB powered DAC, you will need to put a powered USB hub between the iphone and the USB DAC. Check out threads on computeraudiophile.com. If you are looking for a portable product, there are more coming out every day (self powered is better, as the iphone will only provide a tiny bit of power). I have a JDS Labs C5D portable DAC/headphone amp. I think there are more portable options right now with the Galaxy phones, but there definitely are options for iphones and more coming.

Thanks all. Much appreciated..
Steve, how can an $85 docking station have a good dac? Isn't it just too cheap?

Ptss - I know, this i20 is a giant-killer. Even with the stock wall-wart it is amazingly good. I have heard hundreds of DACs too. I want to try a Hynes supply on it next.

For $85 it is a no-brainer.
