Thanks again, ClieOs and gr8Osunds (and TechnoBear). I am still not certain what the plug type that goes into Micro digital input is. It does not appear to be one of the standard usb types I am familiar with. Feeling pretty lame right now...but can you clarify or point me to a MonoPrice one that will work? Again, thanks for the help.
Its actually just a regular usb plug; same type that connects to any computer. Think of the Micro as having a little Dragonfly or Geek Out connector 'inside' of it. Only difference is the Micro's is recessed. In fact, if you removed the Micro's aluminum shell, it might be able to connect directly to some usb ports (assuming the RCAs didn't get in the way).
IFi did this so that, when using an Apple CCK plug or android otg cable, the adapter does not protrude all the way out. Benefit is never worrying about bending or breaking the usb tip but, initially, it is strange trying to figure out exactly type it is. Looking at the blue cable and seeing it is just an extender helped too. After that, I got a couple of Monster usb extender cables. The female end has a good amount of covering so it makes for a snug, gapless fit with the Micro.
EDIT: see for yourself.....
