    Khadas tone board and Pixel 2 XL with powered USB hub?

    I'll try it. I have a usbc to usba cable that should work. We will see. Thanks for the input.

    What wire to build my own RCA interconnects?

    They are complete. I'm not crazy about the neutrik connectors in the redesigned outer ring. Not sure of terminology. The outer gold plated part that holds the plug on tight. It is a tight connection, but it only grips on two sides and allows the connector to wiggle. Other than that they...

    Khadas tone board and Pixel 2 XL with powered USB hub?

    Don't think it matters since I am powering the hub via power outlet. I'm not worried about charging the phone. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the OTG cable

    DAC/AMP RCA interconnects/jumpers?

    Cables are finished. I had to use a magnifying glass to verify my work. I also checked them with a meter to verify no shorts and continuity. They turned out nice. I am not crazy about the redesigned ends.

    Khadas tone board and Pixel 2 XL with powered USB hub?

    Well I tried that. No go. In fact I can't get my Droid turbo 2 to work either.

    DAC/AMP RCA interconnects/jumpers?

    I have decided to mount the toneboard near the front of my Atom amp. I will design a 3d printed case. I will be making my own 6" or so long cables.

    Khadas tone board and Pixel 2 XL with powered USB hub?

    You know what, you sir are correct. I think I was using the top ports. I forgot all about that. It has a port on the side near the power button. I will retry my tests tonight. Thanks for reminding me, I can be brain dead sometimes. lol Your listed hub is the one I purchased.

    What wire to build my own RCA interconnects?

    When I used to work in industrial controls, we used to connect one end of the low voltage control (analog 4-20ma) circuit to ground. It does not matter which end. The key is that only one end can be grounded though. We usually just grounded the cable in the main cabinet rather than in the...

    Review and Measurements of New JDS Labs Atom Headphone Amp

    No, that will not work due to the way the cover is fastened to the atom circuit board. The top cover has 4 posts that align with the rubber feet on the bottom and are injection molded to go tight down against the circuit board. The hardware then goes through the bottom, circuit board, and...

    Khadas tone board and Pixel 2 XL with powered USB hub?

    I have tried all settings in the USB default settings. Midi is where it currently resides. I have tried toggling the USB audio on and off as well.

    Android 8 USB audio

    I can not get my tone board to work with my pixel 2 xl. I have tried it with and without a powered usb hub. Nothing. No audio. It just continues to play on the phones speakers. If I plug in my pixel dongle, it magically works. I dont get it. If anyone out there has a pixel 2, could you...

    Khadas tone board and Pixel 2 XL with powered USB hub?

    Well I can not get it to work. I bought the powered usb hub. Its an aukey 7 port. It powers up the tone board. It also powers up the phone. But I do not get the audio passthrough. My phone still just plays on the built in speakers. I hate usb audio. It does not work on my laptop either.

    What wire to build my own RCA interconnects?

    Good to hear. I just stumbled upon them online. They happened to have a good price on the wire and connectors, so I purchased.
