USB as input and output - Jml2155 - 25-Feb-2015

Hello, 

I would like to use the Master USB port as an input from a music server (Aries or else)    AND  to use the Companion USB  port as a digital output that I could then feed to an external USB DAC/headphone amp ?


I could then use my headphones. 


Devialet helpdesk told me it was not possible at the present time. 


Any ideas ? 


Huh

Not sure what you are looking for? It can't be done, the devialet is not a computer to drive external USB DACs.

Feed analog to your headphone amp from the Devialet. If your headphone dac/amp won't accept analog look to replace it with just a headphone amp.

Dr Tone has it in a nutshell.  For more information you might look at this thread which asks a similar question (in particular these two posts explain why it is not currently possible).
