more good news!
 
Besides working now with Android 5.0 (16/44 with native lollipop, hi-rez with uapp), the GeekOut also works with (insert drumroll) Linux.
 
I have squeezeplug running on an OdroidU3 (formerly running on a Raspberry Pi) with a 2TB drive in my car and was using a Meridian Explorer.
On a windows pc, the GeekOut clearly outclasses the first generation Meridian Explorer (don't know about later, updated versions, so your mileage may vary).
 
I just figured out how to configure the squeezelite player for the GeekOut..........and the OdroidU3 even has enough juice to power the GeekOut.
 
If you are a squeezeplug/linux fan, the GeekOut is configured in SLOPTIONS with
 
front:CARD=G1V5,DEV=0
 
and that is it........i've verified 16/44 and 24/96 play fine.
 
tomorrow I re-install it in my car (GeekOut linestage output to aux in of car stereo system)

I concede that the geekout works with some Samsung devices.
I concede that geekout needs external power

I have a nexus 7 which works great with otg and UAPP and a meridian explorer DAC

However, the geekout does not work with the same hw and I am using external power


So, has anyone gotten a nexus 7 to work with a geekout?

Dude, you told me that GO 1000 works with Nexus 7.
I bought both of them.
Does it truly work with GO1000?? Do I hvae to plug an external battery??
I wonder why GO 1000 works well with all Samsung but not with other Android devices.


The problem is its power. Dear Larry, can you make a Geek Out V2 with an internal battery??
That will solve the whole Android issue!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow settle.
yes the Geek Stream has been planned for months, demoed at RMAF and will contain a battery for use with iDevices and Android OTG.

I have a geekout 450 and I have to use a y cable and battery with the nexus 7.
The 1000 would require at least as much power

The odroidU3 has enough juice to run the geekout 450 by itself, and that is what I have as my car music server.

Noooo

It's a Class-A dual 1W amplifier. Gets very hot... Of course you need a battery, or a powered hub, or a power supply. I believe anything over 100mA trips an iDevice.

Hi there...
 
We didn't call it Geek Out V2. We called it Geek Stream.... And we have that working perfectly with a lot of smartphones. 
 
It's waiting for a killing chassis design. After that, you could see that in very early 2015.

I see. Is there any sound quality difference between Geek Out and Geek Stream?

On Note 10.1 (ed 2014), Note 3 and Tab S 8.4 LTE (not shown) running Kitkat 4.4.2, all working fine.

Hello Mikey.
Is that a Geek Out 1000??
Does your Samsung phone and tablet supply enough power for it??
I mean, does it sound the same as on your PC or laptop?
I'm trying to use Geek Out 1000 with my HTC phone and Nexus tablet. I think I will have some troubles with power supply.

 

[m-i-c-k-e-y]

YES and YES!! No external batteries!
 
Sound? Even cleaner since it ran on batteries (w/ regards to PC's power supply).
 
Note: My Note 3 won't run Geek Out 1000 until I upgraded to Android 4.4.2.
 
Note 4 with Android 4.4.4 runs natively also.

That's amazing!!
I'm just not yet ready to go with Samsung..
Do you know any other android devices which work well with GO1000?

 

[m-i-c-k-e-y]

Sorry nope. In my place of work and at home its either Sammys or iPhones..
 
Sorry Bro. 
 
If I can get something else I'll post it here or in the USB Android thread.

It's okay bro.

So, does Geek Out 1000 drain Samsung's battery life faster??
How many hours of music can you play from the combo?
Also, can Geek Out 1000 on Samsung drive all headphones?
I'm going to use LCD 2F.

On Note 3's internal battery, it's around 3.75 hrs on MP3 and 3.25 hrs on DSD. But when playing, I normally use it with my battery pack.

On my tablet, I haven't measured it yet.

I see. That isn't really long enough. How about when you put an external battery?
I think I might use a tiny 2200mah portable battery stick.
Do you think it will extend playing time a lot more?
