    Schiit Eitr impression and USB-SPDIF converters discussion

    I tried everything I could (energy settings Win 10, bios settings, fresh install, different usb ports) but I can't figure it out...... Any ideas?

    Schiit Eitr impression and USB-SPDIF converters discussion

    I'm thinking about switching from the Eitr to the Singxer F1, because the C-media asio driver keeps glitching with VB Asiobridge. I really don't want to because I really like the sound of the Eitr, but the glitches drive me mad (buffer 50ms)......

    I solved the problem!!!! Yesss!!!! Installed VB Asio bridge with Hifi cable instead of the Jriver wdm driver and music is clear and smooth as it should be, without any interference. Happy Eitr here!!

    Schiit Eitr impression and USB-SPDIF converters discussion

    I tried Qobuz Hifi again to research my glitchgate with Spotify (was shocked how much better Qobuz sounds compared to Spotify Premium, way more open, fluid, dynamic, real), and no glitches with Asio generic in Qobuz, without using Jriver wdm! The one thing that drives me crazy right now is that...

    My primary player is Spotify (cannot live without the remote connect function, tried Qobuz and Tidal), playing through Jriver wdm driver (Asio with TPDF dithering, Eitr buffer 20ms, Jriver buffer 50ms and live 50ms).

    Schiit Eitr impression and USB-SPDIF converters discussion

    Guys I would like to know how you you use the Eitr and with which buffer settings. I like Asio the most, but keep getting glitches every few minutes or so, the same with Wasapi. I still don´t understand the problem, could it be the driver? Turned of all different power management settings and...

    Schiit Eitr impression and USB-SPDIF converters discussion

    Thats sounds like a possibility.... Any idea how to get rid of RF/EMI interference on the power line?

    I tried Wasapi, but strongly prefer Asio (less veiled, more clear and open). I tested a little bit more with Latencymon and it seems it's not a latency problem, because it doesn't spike at the moment op glitching. Does somebody recognise this problem?

    I´m curious to hear the buffer settings in Jriver (wdm driver) you guys are using with the Eitr. I keep on getting glitches every 5 minutes or so.

    I don’t agree, but I think it differs from driver to driver. Just check all three and decide which one you like the most (asio, wasapi, ks).

    It sounds better than Wasapi (again, my ears), but latency can't be too low and it gives me glitches every 5 minutes or so... Really annoying, because it could be end game for a while.

    I did extensive a-b-ing between Asio and Wasapi and always favoured Asio in multiple setups. Wasapi sounds dryer/flatter/less wide according to my ears. Asio sounds more extended in highs and lows and more lush. I think you get the most of Asio when you use a dedicated driver.

    Schiit Eitr impression and USB-SPDIF converters discussion

    The purest way to use the Eitr is through Asio or Wasapi (prefer Asio) and use the JRiver WDM driver for playback outside JRiver. All other options are inferior and don't use the full potential of the Eitr (in my opinion). The only drawback is that Schiit doesn't supply a dedicated Asio driver...

    I think it was a bad omen, because the Eitr stopt working completely.... The light doesn't turn on anymore, it seems completely dead. Terrible....
