I have the Trends UD-10 running from a Mac Mini to a Musical Fidelity X-Dac v3 and I like the unit quite a lot too.

I also had a Squeezebox 3 and used that for a while but felt the USB trends to X-Dac to be significantly better. I had bought a linear regulated 5v power supply for the Squeezebox so I've always used that to power the Trends.

I have a feeling though that getting a USB Dac and getting rid of the "middle man" Trends that the sound can be even better. Which is my plan for the future. But in general the Trends UD-10 works great.

  Thanks for the post and your thoughts on the UD-10.
  I too have a UD-10 feeding a Musical Fidelity DM25 tube dac and could not be happier.I will have to try an external 2 amp 5v switching power supply.I did not notice a huge difference with the supplied battery pack,just more liquidy and Involving.As for getting a better dac with USB......I don't think so.The UD-10 conveys the music!
