CAn i do this:

SIII -> USB OTG -> UD100 -> E3/E6 amp -> Headphones/IEM
Im thinking the amp is only to amplify the output so it shouldnt matter if the amp is not so high end. Whats important is the output from UD100 (good quality) is amplified more.

Is my thinking correct? Newbie here smile.gif

I have an ipad mini, i read in previous Ipad generations, they can use the camera connection kit with usb port to do this:
IPAD -> Camera connection kit USB -> USB DAC -> AMP -> Headphones/IEM

Anyone tried this ? With new Lightning connector/ old ipad ?

no, because if  your dac is a high end dac than you use a not so good amp it will become a bottle neck effect. is like you have a v12 engine but you use a proton auto gear box

Ohh.. I thought the amp will amplify the source. Since i got good source with amp it will be louder ? Or will the amp distort the audio quality ?
