How to use

Connect the Sharkoon DAC Pro S to a host device using the USB Type-A plug and attach your headset or headphones to the 3.5 mm TRRS/stereo port. On most PCs the device will operate as a plug-and-play external audio adapter; select it as the playback and capture device in the operating system or application audio settings. When using Android devices, connect via a compatible OTG adapter and select the external audio device in the system settings if required.

Recommendations

For optimal results, use headphones or headsets with a TRRS or compatible 3.5 mm connector and set the audio sample rate to the device’s supported 96 kHz/24-bit mode in your OS or application where available. Avoid using damaged cables and keep the adapter connected directly to the host or a short extension to minimise signal loss.
