The Muse DAC presents itself to a computer as a generic sound card. It's fairly obvious from articles like this (http://www.head-fi.org/t/595071/android-phones-and-usb-dacs/5010) that DACs or some DACs can be used with Androids. Would Android recognize this DAC as a sound card? I imagine it would; however, I'd probably choose this product (http://www.amazon.com/HiFiMeDIY-Android-Digital-Converter-PCM2706/dp/B00FJSEAZ4) instead since it appears to be designed specifically for Android and because it costs about the same thing. Looks like the reviews are very good also! Good luck. Hth.

The iPOD connection is the same for those models and they fit the DAC. The music is so much clearer when you convert from digital.Enjoy!

Hello, Thank you for your interest in our gear. The XDA-2 DAC is a great product, and is usually after the CD player in the signal path. Based on that, it has digital inputs (2 digital optical, 2 digital coaxial, 1 AES/ EBU, and 1 USB) and no analog inputs. So unfortunately you would not be able to run an analog input into the DAC. If your SACD player does have one of the digital ports, you can connect it out of the CD player into the XDA-2. If you are wanting to run the XDA-2 into the SACD player I am unaware if that is possible, you will need to check with your SACD player manufacture to confirm. Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns. I hope you have a great rest of the day.

You can get a great sounding optical DAC from Fiio for $25, and attach it to the back of this amp. http://www.amazon.com/FiiO-Digital-Analog-Audio-Converter/dp/B005PWPUW6/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1353039917&sr=8-4&keywords=Fiio+DAC

I tend to agree with Larry. I connect this DAC using its headphone jack to Bose companion 2 speakers - which required ac input - and it sound great.

Sure the internal DAC is simple and not sophisticated and will convert the audio HDMI stream to the analog stereo outputs. I use mine only to extract the optical or coaxial SPDIF digital audio stream output that is maintained in its original form in the HDMI stream to analog, using an external DAC as mine Benchmark DAC2-HGC. That is my main use for the unit.

Yes, of course. This player requires amplifier with passive speakers connected. And I highly recommend DAC between N500 and amplifier - I didn't like sound after direct connection N500->R-S700

It's just a DAC, you need to connect it to a headphone amp or a pre-amp. Mine is connected to a music fidelity xcan-v8p.

Let me briefly tell you how I hook up my DAC.Mac mini optical out -optical cable-> DAC optical input and then analog out -RCA cable-> preamp analog input -> ATC SCM20 powered speaker input (XLR)Of course, you can connect your CD player similar way. The analog (RCA) out from DAC to the RCA input of your integrated amp.

Unfortunately, I don't have an OTG Cable for my Android Phone, so I have no way to test this at the moment. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help.

The RCA inputs are only analog, not digital (e.g. S/PDIF) so the DAC only runs via USB.

Yes Rebecca this will go into the Optical SPDIF input Port on your Orei DA21 converter and then you can output an analog signal to an analog headphone jack or the red and white cables. just make sure the device you want to get audio from has a Optical Out port.

Nope. As dmdmba said: the DAC part of the amp plugs into your computer's or digital audio player's USB port to get its input, and puts out an analog signal.

Any DAC will do fine. I have mine hooked up to my Fiio E07k. One could also plug it directly into the PC's headphone line out as well.

I know that it will work with an iphone, with the correct cable. And I know that Android supports audio-out through usb. You can try using the samsung smart dock with your phone, as it supplies usb outputs and is powered, i believe. But, I would recommend using a proper portable DAC.

This can be used like any other audio component in an audio system; cd player. To use the internal DAc, you just connect the L&R; RCA jacks into a receiver or pre-amplifier.

Yes it has a DAC because it has a headphone output jack. I assume the quality of the DAC is the same as the ADC used to digitize the audio to begin with. However, I have not used the phone jack.
