Can anyone confirm that this amp works with Linux?

I used it with three different flavors of Ubuntu, and it worked fine. That is, until the unit just failed a bit after two years.

I do not see why not. It is just an A/D device, so you just feed audio to it and it converts it.

Yes, it works with the current Amp Cell Drivers. That's what I am playing with as well.

I used this card in 32-bit Linux Slackware and Windows XP. In Linux, the driver took over the audio output and redirected the audio through the video cable. In XP, it works fine.

i haven't tested that way, but i believe it will work with no problem, but remember that it will sound with distortion or the fx that are built in the amp.

Yes, I am using this with cord my Behringer microphone. I have to fiddle about with the "Recording devices" screen to make it an input, but yes it works. (Actually, Windows 8.1 Pro, but should work with Home version as well) Also works with XP; I haven't seen if there is a Linux driver for it yet though.

No answer for using it with a Linux system, but works great with my home brew set up.There are way bettercamers, but have no complaints with this one.

It works perfectly on the latest Ubuntu. I have not tested on other distros.

It does work with Ubuntu out of the box. I can't speak to other distros, but I know Schiit has put effort into this product working with Linux. They've marketed it a few times and demonstrated it running on Ubuntu and as the M&M stack being good sound that young people can actually afford. And it running on Linux was a big part of that. So I would assume that anything called "Audiophile Linux", which I have previously not heard of, would be right up their alley for this product.

I connected it to the AMP directly. However it doesnt have good sound resolution. I would avoid if you are looking for excellent sound quality.if however you have a Computer 5.1 set like Creative speakers, etc. It is functional...

This answer is a little late, but i have used this with Linux Mint 13 and 17 with no problems at all. In fact this card worked when I could not get some others to. Very good piece of equipment, connects immediately and stays connected with a strong signal. But the external antenna is a pain in the ***, however it also gives you flexibility when looking for the right spot to get the most signal strength without having to move your computer around.

Yes, but unfortunately not with Linux. If anyone has found the drivers and software that works under Linux, please post.

I have not try that yet. But since you brought it up, I will test it. How the unit has to work with an amp.

The amp is compatible. You can test drive Emotiva's products for 30 days to be sure that it is what your looking for.

Yes. I even tried it with the Raspberry Pi. S/PDIF I am unsure of. However, the included software is useless. Linux will automatically set it to 7.1 surround sound.

I use mine on a Linux machine, no problem so far; though I have not thoroughly put it through the paces.

I have this system and am able to play 24-bit/192KHz flac files through the USB interface just fine (running on linux). I suppose it's possible the software or hardware is downgrading them first but I would have expected no sound at all if the unit really didn't support it.

Yes. I purchased this for use with my Ubuntu system. Plugged it in, and it works right away.
