Need help configuring X-Fi as transport to external DAC

nah u need to some type of adaptor in between the flexijack(mini) to the digital cable. I guess a mono-rca adaptor will do it. I wonder if thats what the creative thing is,but in a big plastic housing. It cost me $15 bucks i think.

ugh so I need to buy the flexi jack and a adapter. wont cheap adapters reduce sq or it doesnt make a difference? also, I would need a digital to coax to connect it to a citypulse or could I use my zu pivot(mini-rca)?

just wanna be sure before I invest on a citypulse early next month when all the kinks are fixed.

flexijack is on the XFi card rear connectors. It can be the microphone, or the digital coax connector depending on how you software configure it.

ahhh thats what I thought it was, so I wont have to buy anything afterall...I think. my zu pivot connected from digital out to rca on the citypulse will work then. Sorry for being so anal about this.

I'm pleased to report that the signal from the flexijack is working fine. Just bought a mono RCA to 1/8" jack, plugged my coax cable in, and bam, the data locked light comes on. Trying it now, and it sounds fantastic. Thanks everyone!
