[suspects]

I have HUGE, AMAZING NEWS.



Get a type C to 3.5mm dongle adapter.

The ps5 picks it up as usb high res audio! It sends 3d audio! So all you need to do is then attach a 3.5mm to RCA to an AMP!



It won't pick it up UNTIL you attach a device to the 3.5mm jack. I plugged in my PortaPros and it changed over! So now, just a good hefty amp and you're golden!

Dang that’s good news. So any dac/amp will work now?

edit: nvm, this is not an ideal solution due to low power and noise.

So i assume something like the G6’s SFX (believe that is what their virtual surround is called) works perfectly right?

With this $10-15 cable, a 3.5mm male to RCA male cable (or if your amp has a 3.5mm input, any aux cable will do!) to your amp, you won't need any dac!

Did you test the g6 via usb?

Not sure about linking out to other places (new here) but was confirmation the G6 works, hopefully MLE can confirm that as well

Just tested. Works perfectly! 3D Audio is a go!

As for SBX, I don't think you'll wanna use that, because I believe this is picked up as a 2 channel device, so I wouldn't recommend using SBX.

Sorry for the delay in testing! I had to do some updates.

Damn, would that work on an Xbox as well?

I can't verify, since I won't have an Xbox.

I need to get a new setup as my PS4 was reliant on optical. Looking at a Mayflower Arc Mk2 vs a G6 any opinions?

Xonar U3 works! Picked up as USB Headset (USB Advanced Audio Device).

The PS5 is making use of our gear easy!

I'd want to verify but Xbox uses USB-A ports. I can't seem to find such an adapter.

Bad news about the usb c to 3.5mm dongle.

It was ok with the PortaPro, but it doesn't provide enough juice for anything even moderately demanding even through the Magni 3. Not enough volume, and a lot of static.


So right now, the G6 is most ideal. Perhaps an amp to the G6 for best solution atm.


Edit: Schiit Hel and Schiit Modi 3 do not work, unfortunately.

Fantastic. Thanks a lot.

Damn, would have been a nice solution.

Any subjective opinion on Penrose (X) vs LucidSound LS50X and PS Pulse 3D based on past experiences with the brands MLE?
Do you know LucidSound?

This is great Intel. Thanks.

Now I have some thinking to do. Sell the X7 and replace with G6 so I can used my Ether C Flows or Penrose.
