If you are going to use more than one source (USB,Coax, etc) make turns on sources in the DAC, alwways be sure that the source is sending signal and don't fall to sleep or pause. If you are going to use both RCA and XLR make turns on them... And a lot of patience some times you need from 300-500 hours...
