I'm trying to connect my old DVD player to a headphone amp using an RCA to USB-C adapter, but the amp isn't powering up. I'm using the RCA output from the DVD player into a Fiio KA 17 headphone amp via USB-C. The amp is powered by another USB-C connection from my PS5. Is there something I'm missing, or is this setup just not possible? Thanks in advance for any help!

The setup might not provide enough power to convert from RCA to USB for your headphones. Make sure the amp is properly powered first before connecting it to your audio source. If it’s still not working, the problem might be how the connections are set up.
Hey, just to clarify, what cables are you using for your connections? Knowing the exact hardware will help us pinpoint the issue better. Sounds like a tricky setup!
It sounds like the issue is that you can’t plug an analog audio signal into a USB-C power input and expect it to work. You need to power the amp with a proper power source first, and then connect the DVD player’s audio output to the amp’s audio input instead. Can you clarify what specific amp you're using and how you’re connecting everything? That might help figure out what’s wrong!
