Does this version have a red light illuminating the interior of thr 3.5 audio jack?

Hi, yes, that is the optical output light. This DAC also have a digital optical output through the same 3.5 audio jack (so can not be used a at the same time as the analog out).

Can I pair this with an amp?

Do you mean headphone amp or speaker power amp?For headphones this drives Audio-Technica ATH-M50x to insane loudness levels. For normal listening levels i turn up the volume at about 10% in the Windows audio panel.So i do not think there is any need for headphone amp, unless you do not own some exotic 600 Ohm headphones.For speaker power amp there should be no issue.Other advice -> Use 24bit instead of 16bit output mode. It will give better signal to noice ratio.

Would it work with the international version of samsung galaxy S7E? Would it require 3rd party apps in order to work?

It should work with the S7 with all default applications, no 3rd party apps required.

I'm looking for a bigger signal and better sound from my galaxy s5. I want to use it with a stereo, not headphones. Is this what i need?

Yes, this DAC also works and sounds great with a stereo. It works with many Android phones, however some recent version of Android has introduced some problems when used with the DAC. Galaxy S7 with Android 6 has some issue (work when phone is put in Airplane mode), we are not sure about status for S5.

HiFimeDIY Digital-Analog Converters Editorial Review

The Hifime 9018 USB DAC is a device that works great with many Android phones, laptops, and desktops, delivering a superior audio experience. It is easy to install and use and comes with a short USB cable, making it easy to connect to devices. According to customer feedback, this DAC has good value for money and delivers a clear, open sound with good separation and clarity improvements. It provides good detail and sound stage with plenty of power. However, some customers complained that the built-in amp makes the sound too warm, and bass output drowns out the mids. One customer didn't feel that it sounded any better than his MacBook's internal audio, and another said that the external build quality felt cheap and flimsy. **
