The E17 works perfectly with my Verizon GS4. I've only used it for about a half an hour total, but it does work and it's simply plug and play.

 
any idea if there is a chance that E17 will work as a DAC with my cowon z2?
 
other than using "USB Audio Recorder PRO", any other free software that I can use to output the digital signal to my E17?

Why then is e17 not listed for note 2 on the list?

What exactly is interworking, and how is it different from the behavior of note 2 from your previous post?

 
The mentioned list is "a list of standard USB DAC reportedly interworking with the Android-powered smartphone Samsung Galaxy Note II:
 
stock Galaxy Note II > digital USB audio out >> USB OTG cable (ID pin grounded) >> standard USB DAC >> amp >> headphones

So far, like the quad-core Exynos powered Galaxy S3, the quad-core Exynos powered Samsung Galaxy Note II can work with the FiiO E7, the iBasso D12, Leckerton UHA-6S MKII, the ODAC, … ; had some issue with the HeadAmp Pico (bug fixed by HeadAmp); and doesn’t work with the FiiO E17 using the stock USB audio driver.
 
So, in regard to the USB protocol, the behaviour of the Galaxy Note II is likely identical to the behaviour of the Galaxy S3..."

Hello!
 
This week my new FiiO arrived in my home with all accessories. I tested it alone and with my E09K desk amp and everything is working great now!
 
Thank you FiiO for the excellent after-sale service, solving my uncommon case in the best way for me.
 
I think that one only really know about a brand when something goes wrong and you need support.
 
In the first moment I bought a new DAC/amplifier in USA, flew back to Brazil and found that it does not work, I was very disappointed with a probable paperweight. After the impressive after-sale support, very fast answers, personalized service, interest in solve my problem, I changed my mind and realize how good this brand is. 
 
I hope to buy new products from FiiO, very good quality, honesty prices and excellence in the after-sale support.
 
Best Regards,
Rodrigo.

I got my FiiO in last night and it worked fine on my Windows 7 desktop. Now I am trying to use it on OS X 10.8.4. I have it selected as my output device for audio, and have USB selected on the FiiO but no sound comes through. Am I missing something?

Maybe try doing the settings in Audio Midi Setup?
