I will be plugging in my computer and ps4 into a Yamaha rx-v375 receiver via HDMI and was wondering how I would use a schiit modi DAC with it. 
 
Receiver : http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B981F38/ref=gno_cart_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
 
DAC : http://www.amazon.com/Modi-USB-Digital-Analog-Convertor/dp/B00CICPN0K/ref=lh_ni_t?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2MQBWZ25GS6JU
 
I just want to know how it will be configured and if I will have any problems before I buy anything. Thanks!

Connect a USB cable from the Modi USB port to the computer's USB port.
Run RCA cables, from the Modi's RCA output ports to the ECA (analog) input ports on the Yamaha.
I would assume the Modi will not work with the PS4, but I know very little about the PS4.
 
I personally would just use HDMI cables from the PS4 & computer to the HDMI input ports on the receiver.
