No, I mean the new cheap one that is almost a dongle. USB-3 to phone jack, 1.5 inch wire for flexibility $59 or so.

Yep. Works good. The 
ly part is with interactions of the Go-link android 12 and tablet USB with and without uapp.

Thanks for clarifying as we have a few Go products now! How has the GO Link behaved with other audio sources? Are you able to check? Tight fit is likely a product of the build.
With iPad Pro - fine. With iPhone - fine, with MacBook Pro fine. iPhone used USB-3 to Lightning adapter. I have not had time to test it with the old Android 8 tablet. Work has been rather busy, causing brain fatigue and nothing but tapioca between my ears.

Itād be worth a test with the Android 8 when your tapioca hasā¦solidified (haha?). Otherwise Iāll check if weāve had any GO Link UAPP issues crop up yet.
OK, eventually. Weekend travel planned.

I found an incompatibility between Schiit and iFi
Specifically, while the Schiit Lokiusā power supply - 14-16v AC has EXACTLY the same connector as my iFi Zen Blue V2 5 volt power supply, they are not actually interchangeable. In fact, when you plug in the Schiit supply to the Zen Blue V2, the Zen issues smoke signals.
My Sansui AU-919 came back from repair today, and I was setting things back up in the office. I had a 50% chance of choosing the right power supply for the Zen Blue and the Lokius by looking at which lead I had marked with tape. Something went wrong.
As I donāt use balanced in this setup, a NEW ZEN AIR BLUE is on its way - due Monday from Amazon. Meanwhile I brought in my FIIO K9 PRO ESS and am using that until the replacement arrives.
Sorry iFi for naming 4 actual brands in this post. Iām expecting that the ZEN BLUE AIR at a mere 100 Iron Men will be at least as good as a 2 or 3 year old Blue V2, if only being used with Bluetooth.

Sorry to hear that!
After letting the magic smoke out of many devices over the years (and still not finding a way of getting it back inside), I have become extra cautious with power supplies but still slip up now and again.

I label my power supplies with tape on the barrel ends. Ugly as Madonna, but it helps with my limited brain function.

I also wrap the right channel of those blasted invisible Sennheiser āLā and āRā cable markings with tape or add a dot of paint.
Way back when the insides of PCs had ribbon cables that could be reversed, one had to find a tiny mark on the boards to determine the correct orientation. If you got it wrong the electrical shorts would melt the insulation for every other wire. Ask me how I know.

I remember when the company tech where I worked back in the late '90ās replaced a power supply in a Dell desktop pc. Never heard so much yelling and the smoke! Man it stunk.
Dell used a proprietary power supply in that machine ( We had about 200 of them ) which you could not buy. It LOOKED just like a regular power supply.

Placed the Zen Air Blue in my office chain today. A worthy piece of work that sounds at least as good as the Zen Blue V2 it replaced. Half the cost stronger BT connection. Lacks all frills- no power supply but a USB A to power connector short cable instead. SE out only. But it does exactly what I need (and, I suspect what most need) very well. Surprisingly smooth sound ā Iād guess Burr Brown rather than the ESS it has. Great job, iFi.

Thats quite the conundrum! But good to know. Itās definitely worth keeping the power supplies separate to avoid this, but Iām glad you were able to find a replacement unit that suits your needs.

iFi is coming hardcore with this one. Talk about a swiss army knife.
