I've tried KSE1500 on all 3 of my mac laptops - and they all sounded like schiit. My 2009 and 2017 iMacs were both fine. I think it's maybe unfortunately a laptop/desktop thing.
Thanks for the response. I'm actually happy with 44.1 from my phone if I can get it to work without the occasional dropouts. I plan to listen only to Qobuz 44.1kHz/16-bit streams.
I only tried it through my laptop for testing purposes. I never listen from my laptop.
Perhaps I'll try USB Audio Player Pro. I read in this post that: "USB Audio Player Pro is afaik the only app that has a separate driver for USB output on phones which will send bit-perfect signal to an EXTERNAL dac."
I got a used one on eBay. Still having trouble getting the unit to show up as a digital output for my MacBook. Are there any tricks for getting it recognized by computers?
It seems to be low on battery—the red light is illuminated behind the mode switch button.
