2. Press [ ] in the Notification Bar.
3. Once [ ] is activated, you can enjoy music stored on the device through the connected portable USB DAC.

The USB Type-C cable that comes packaged with the device is only to be used for computer data transfer or to charge the device.

The type of dedicated cable needed to connect to the portable DAC varies; please refer to USB DAC manufacturer instructions for correct cable type.

A USB DAC cable is not included with the device and must be purchased separately.

Depending on the OTG cable used, the connection may be unstable.

How to Change USB Audio DSD Output Type

You can change the type of DSD data that is outputted through the USB audio out.

The portable USB DAC must be able to receive digital input through the micro-USB's OTG.

Audio output may vary widely depending on the digital input specs of the portable USB DAC used. This is not a defect in the device output and not a reason for exchange or refund.

When using DoP as a DSD output type, no sound may be outputted except noise depending on the portable USB DAC.
