Oops sorry, I didn't read your full question. No you can't feed via OTH or any other means. Which means, no streaming.

So I can't connect a phone to it and just use the Cowons dac/amp?

You can use it as a USB dac/amp plugged into a PC or a Mac, but I don't think it works out of a phone. I could be wrong.

Thanks I appreciate it. I wish there was more words on Zeus synergy

Oh I am sorry man. I just had a full mug of coffee and I am having a caffeine rush. I seem to be posting without thinking things twice. My apologies for almost misguiding you.

Ok, here is the thing. Cowon Plenue M2 is a standalone DAP. And just like some of the DAPs these days, it does have the capability to function as a DAC/Amp. Twister6, in his Plenue M2 mentioned that he was able to get it to work as a DAC/Amp with his PC. With his phone, it didn't work well with some of the popular apps. More detailed info can be found here in his review:

I sometimes do this with emails at work and it inevitably comes back to bite me in the butt.

Wow really? Way better than mojo? Can anyone else comfirm? Is it only that particular Cowon model that has this performance?

well let me put this way, there is no hiss with cowon what so ever, its strong dsp is what makes this dap shine with zues
 
if you are not into dsp this dap is not for you, simply cowon put all their effort into this dsp to get the best out of that dap
 
mojo sounds amazing as well, but i am not into stacking anymore with iems
 
i have the mojo and its just being used as a stack with alo mk3B for my oppo pm1
 
I owned cowon plenue s and now pm2 and on single ended both sound really similar
 
i did not feel that the cowon s was worth the price difference even if it was better than the pm2
 
with fiio x7 its not a good pairing with zeus xr adel

I don't know much about dsp. Why does people want it, why do some people don't want it? Pros. Cons?

simply cowon daps without dsp sounds so flat and lifeless , I serisouly think cowon was meant to be listened to with dsp engaged 
 
i think 90% of cowon dap owners use dsp when they buy the cowon daps
 
forget any eq you used in previous daps, the dsp in cowon is totally different
 
with zeus really its a match that is just spot on

Yeah I was going to grab one this week, but just last week or the week before they were at $599 on Amazon (through Jet Audio). I decided not to buy since they're back up to $650. Jet Audio seems to get stock back in fairly quickly (usually just a few days) but they fluctuate in price enough to the point that I'm happy waiting to save that extra $50. Set a price alert using CamelCamelCamel and you'll be notified when the next price drop happens. I have an alert set up for the Plenue 1 as well, as I've never stopped missing mine since I sold it last year. 

 
Oh cool. Thanks. I will do this, in case I decide not to take the LPG route.
 
Btw, thanks for the video on the Plenue S UI. Very helpful.

No problem, I totally forgot I made that video last year. More than 6k views now, which is shocking considering how basic it is.

The DSP has a really advanced EQ as well as some other filters that can tailor the sound to your liking without distortion. It's pretty impressive and powerful for a portable DAP.
 
With that said, I'm one of very few people that love the Plenue DAPs without EQ or DSP effects. I actually like the stock sound out of them, but I'm a purist and I readily admit my personal feelings about not using EQ are archaic and silly even if I keep clinging to my no-EQ policy.

 I heard the ADEL at Empire Ears a couple weeks ago and thought the soundstage was pretty impressive. I'm definitely saving up for another EE custom and am thinking about the XR ADEL. I just sold my Zeus-R to another Head-fier in preparation.
