Both this device and the GoXLR add multiple sound devices to manage their own functionality. In every wiring configuration that I could come up with, those sound devices either were incompatible with each other, or didn't get made at all, there defeating the purpose of one or both of the them. Right now the GoXLR I have is sitting idle. **Q: will it work with a 560s?** A: Yeah it should work with those headphones. **Q: Will this 2nd gen work with the Nintendo Switch? 1st gen did.** A: Yes it will **Q: Does this have an audio out and mic in port all in one or are the seperate ports?** A: Yes. It has three ports. One for the mic, one for the headset, and one for external speakers. You can pick and choose based on your device. I would add a picture if it let me.

I recommend! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by F***R on 10 December 2022* Ich nutze die externe Soundkarte in Verbindung mit eines Epos GSP 602 Headset. Das Sounderlebnis ist wirklich super. Vorher nutze ich die interne Soundkarte des Gigabyte Mainboards. Die Unterschiede sind extrem. Die Soundkarte ist definitiv das Geld wert. Das merkt man ebenfalls an der Haptik und Verarbeitungsqualität. ## Frequently Bought Together - EPOS GSX 1000 2nd Edition Dac Amp Audio Amplifier/External USB Sound Card with 7.1 Surround Sound, Side Tone, Gaming DAC and EQ, Headphone Amp Compatible with Windows, Mac, Laptops and Desktops - EPOS H6Pro - Closed Acoustic Gaming Headset with Mic - Over-Ear - Lift-to-Mute - Xbox/PS4/PS5/PC Headset - Gaming Accessories (Green) - EPOS H6Pro - Open Acoustic Gaming Headset with Mic - Lightweight Headband - Comfortable & Durable Design - Xbox Headset - PS4 Headset - PS5 Headset - PC/Windows Headset - Gaming Accessories (Green) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/495464658-epos-gsx-1000-2nd-edition-dac-amp-audio-amplifier-external](https://www.desertcart.us/products/495464658-epos-gsx-1000-2nd-edition-dac-amp-audio-amplifier-external) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
