Hi,

Without an USB connection you need to provide a power source via USB to keep the iDSD micro running. A better grade cellphone charger will work.

There is an SPDIF input (in/out actually), simply attach a RCA SPDIF cable and you are good to go. It auto-selects inputs, but some configuration is worth doing.

For using it strictly as DAC, set the power mode to Eco, iEMatch to off, Line out to direct. Filter to Bitperfect for bypassing oversampling/digital filters. Polarity (unless you believe in it / are sensitive to it) to +.

Thor

At 20 bits, you are on the verge of dynamic range covering fly-farts-at-20-feet to intolerable pain. Really, what more could we need?
