New Head-Fier
Hello,
I have had an iFI micro iDSD BL for a number of years and just got a new iPad Pro which has a USB-C port. I have been trying to find out what kind of cable I should get to connect them. I want to be able to play red book standard which I ripped and other higher sampling rate files, including DSD, stored on my iPad. Some say that a USB-C to female USB-A will do, whilst some insist that I need the Apple Lightning to Camera adaptor and a Lightning to USB-C adapter or cable for it to work. I am confused. I want to be certain of the choice as I believe that the wrong cable will mean high sampling rate & DSD files cannot be played.
iFi has an OTG cable with a USB-C connector, will this work? I am not too certain what the OTG cable will do to an iPad as I believe its used in the Windows and Android eco system but has never been a requirement for Apple products.
It would not be necessary to be able to charge the iFi at the same time as its battery has enough charge to work off line for many hours.
Any help from anyone who has it working will be appreciated. Thanks.
