What are you supposed to answer if someone asks if usb b or usb c is better? (the part of the phone charger that goes into the charging block)
USB-A - Micro-B/Micro USB cable, USB-A - USB-C cable & good charger suggestions
Having trouble understanding the different usb cable standards i.e. 2.0, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 4.0
usb type a to b not fitting in my modi 3+
With the introduction of the Fulla 2 all new USB powered Schiit dacs use micro USB connectors.
Looking at the back of the Modi 3 from right to left: microUSB power only, micoUSB data/power (this connects to the computer), Toslink S/PDIF, Coax S/PDIF, RCA stero Outs.
The Modi 3 should come with a USB-a to mico-USB cable and a 5 volt power supply. Use the supplied USB cable to connect you computer to the Dac. Get another USB-a to mico-USB cable to use the power supply when needed.
More on reddit.comI work retail and I often get people asking what kind of phone charger they need, or they ask the difference between two chargers. Most commonly, a standard usb c phone charger, smart watch charger, etc, but there's versions that have a usb a that goes into the charging block, and versions that have usb c that goes into the charging block.
A question I often get is "what's the difference" or "which is better" and my brain always freezes cuz like... I don't know. As far as I know they both do the exact same thing.
Asking this now just to have an answer prepared for next time and also because it's been bugging me for a while now. Like why do they even ask? What do they expect you to answer?
Edit: typo, usb b was supposed to be usb a
