i have 4 amps 3 would be for input 1AMP/DAC is output to pc want to be able to listen and switch between my 4 amps possible .Thank you.

I agree with Robert, just want to add that for inputting to a PC, your PC needs an audio line-in port. A mic port will not do. If your PC doesn't have a line-in port, then you can use audio line-in to USB adapter and input to the PC via a USB port. I use a Griffin 7725 IUAI - this lets me input an analog audio signal from my amp to my PC's USB port.

Total of 6 in/outs available. If all amps are outputting at typical (pre)amp levels there's not problem. If output is high level such as driving loudspeakers then there's great danger of over driving the pc front end if it is accidentally switched to receive the output from such a source. Speakers can be driven on the 6th in/out nicely but beware that the pc could be damaged if switched improperly.

Yes, you run it to your preamp. Just like any other DAC. Oh & bye the way the TEAC sounds remarkable!!!

The only way to connect the DAC to the AMP is with RCA. Input to the DAC is coax/toslink or USB. Output is only RCA. DAC, Digital in analog out.

Unless you are getting noticeable electrical interference from a large graphics card I don't think the M50x will benefit from an amp/dac. I'd save your money for your next upgrade (because its an addiction).

I used this amp and it works great on my PC. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0054L8GVK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

A tube amp and a USB DAC are not the same thing and they don't serve the same purpose. An amplifier offers ideal input impedance for your source and greater output power availability to help drive high impedance loads.A DAC takes a digital bitstream and converts it to analog waveform.You could put this amplifier after the DAC if you wanted. (DAC --> amp --> headphones) But they are not the same thing and would not displace each other.

You could use an 8th to RCA adapter cable and it would work. Best use is to put a DAC in front and run from a computer though.

Any DAC will do fine. I have mine hooked up to my Fiio E07k. One could also plug it directly into the PC's headphone line out as well.

I use this set up on a daily basis with a "Zalman" mic. The set-up works great, my only gripe would be both cables are verrryy long so it can be an annoyance. I currently do not use a amp or dac but I heard from a close friend using this with a Astro Mix-amp works very well. If I had to do it again, I would go with a MOD MIC 4.0 instead of the Zalman for the fact that you can clip it on the ear cup and flip it up when your done. Hope this helps.

1) is your machine turned on?2) is the volume on the machine turned up?3) is your signal flow correct? (out of machine to in on amp)4) are you using a mono or stereo 1/4"? if so what output did you use?

Absolutely. It's made for PC Via USB or To connect to an amp rig. Just run the "Left" Output into the input of the amp and adjust your levels. Or run it through the amp effects loop

I have that setup with 2 audio inputs and output to an ampamplifier. It works fine

If you get some male/female converters, you can plug the input wire into your speakers, and plug in the inputs from the computers into the "speaker" and "headphone" outputs on the switch. Then you can toggle between the computers. It can be done, but you might have to deal with converters for the 3.5mm plugs.

If I were you I would look for a good pair of PC speakers. Technically it is possible using an amp and converter cables. If you are using the computer as part of a music system setup then it maybe worth going this route.

this device is analog. any dac that puts out an analog output of sufficient strength should work.

Nope. As dmdmba said: the DAC part of the amp plugs into your computer's or digital audio player's USB port to get its input, and puts out an analog signal.

I use it as a preamp between my Intergra receiver to my Carver amp and it sounds great! You can still use it with your laptop as an amp or preamp, however if you are looking for DAC, buy a DAC designed just for that purpose.
