I use the SOTM USB card in my custom Audio only PC. I use a single USB cable with the SOTM Battery Pack. You also need to keep the USB Computer Power connected to the USB (via Molex) to the SOTM card in case the battery fails. In battery operation the computer USB power is bypassed. Using the battery is the cleanest power and results in a blacker background and smoother highs. Contact Jesus at Sonore for more info.
Dual Headed USB hookup?
I've been considering getting the Gemini Dual Headed USB Cable along with the iFiUSB Power Supply to hook into my Audiophilleo2. My question is... while I know the "power" leg of the Gemini will go into the iFiUSB power USB port, can I hook the data cable of the Gemini directly to the USB output of my SOTM USB card and turn off the USB power on the SOTM card? Or does it have to hook into the Data/Power port on the iFi Power USB and force me to use another USB cable from the SOTM card to the USB in of the iFi unit?
