Ultra-Portable DAC-Amplifier with Advanced Sound Customization
The CrinEar Protocol Micro is an ultra-compact USB-C DAC-amplifier designed to deliver clean audio performance and advanced sound customization at an exceptionally accessible price. Its defining feature is an integrated 8-band Parametric EQ, configurable through EQ.Hangout.Audio using a PC or macOS web browser. Users can fine-tune their earphones with adjustable parametric filters and save their preferred settings directly to the device, allowing personalized audio without requiring a dedicated app or EQ software during playback.

Streamlined Design with Essential Audio Performance
The Protocol Micro is designed as a streamlined counterpart to the more powerful Protocol Max. By focusing on the essentials of the Protocol platform and omitting higher-power and balanced-output hardware, Micro delivers a compact 3.5mm solution with the same emphasis on clean audio and user-configurable EQ at a fraction of the price. This approach makes hardware-based parametric EQ accessible to virtually any listener without compromising on audio quality or reliability.

Built-in 8-Band Parametric EQ
Customize your sound with eight fully adjustable PEQ bands using the browser-based EQ.Hangout.Audio interface. EQ settings are stored directly on the device for consistent sound across compatible sources. This hardware-based approach eliminates the need for a dedicated app or EQ software during playback, ensuring your preferred settings travel with you across different devices and platforms for a seamless, personalized listening experience.

Modified SPV4040 DAC with Clean Conversion
The Protocol Micro features a modified SPV4040 DAC that delivers clean, reliable digital-to-analog conversion optimized for portable listening. The DAC chip works alongside an ultra-low output impedance of <0.4Ω, which preserves the intended frequency response of sensitive IEMs and headphones by minimizing electrical interaction. This combination ensures accurate audio reproduction across a wide range of earphones without unwanted sonic coloration or frequency deviations.

Compact USB-C Dongle Design
The Protocol Micro features a lightweight and highly portable USB-C dongle design, making it easy to carry for everyday use with USB-C smartphones, tablets, and computers. Its compact form factor eliminates the need for bulky equipment while delivering premium audio performance and hardware-based EQ functionality. 

Exceptional Value with Premium Audio Performance
The device combines clean DAC conversion, ultra-low output impedance for sensitive earphones, and an integrated 8-band PEQ that stores settings directly on the hardware. This comprehensive feature set makes it an ideal entry point for listeners seeking high-quality USB audio and personalized sound without breaking the bank.
