Hi everyone,
I recently learned that since android 5.0, android supports external dac's , so i was wondering : do you guys think the usb soundcard from my sennheiser pc 363d headset would work with my OnePLus two? With the help of course of a type-c to female usb type-a cable.
I'll try in the next days to put the dac into another pc without installing the drivers to see if that even works...
When it comes to power, the headset only has an impedance of 33 ohms so that won't be a problem i guess.

It was written in 2013, but it has so much information. I think it would really help you in this case. More than I could.

well the integrated dac of the oneplus two is pretty bad, but where i wasn't all that sure is the fact that the usb dac had a "do not plug in without drivers" sticker on it. if it doesn't work at all without that will cause a problem, so that was the main point of this post :)
