    Wow, that's a gigantic amount of time ! Thanks for the feedback.

    sure, I understand that very well. Just wanted to gather a few examples.

    I built my own DAP

    Hi, out of curiosity, does anyone have an idea about how long it takes on a modern DAP to scan a large SDCard with thousands of audio files - RIFF and FLAC - when inserted for the first time ? Just wondering how fast is my implementation. Cheers

    I built my own DAP

    Looks like I have some competition :) That's really the kind of device I would have loved to build - congrats to the Tangara team - but I don't have any of the hardware related skills. I would have made it with a swapable DAC module though (probably driven through I2S) on top of the USB host...

    I built my own DAP

    Update: 7Hz 71 will not work, because this DAC does not support FS (Full Speed, max 12Mbits/s) hosts, according to Linsoul's tech support. I'm not sure why, because other DACs work just fine, but there's nothing I can do. The Wio USB controller is limited to FS (USB2 compliant though). Next...

    I built my own DAP

    Hi, yes I can switch between DACs, it's plug and play. In theory it should work with any USB DAC but I haven't been able to test with that many. Right now, if I unplug a DAC, the playback will pause, and will resume after another DAC is plugged in. And yes, it's pretty quick, I made sure it's...

    I built my own DAP

    Merci :) It's already pocketable. The Wio Terminal has an optional battery pack that I'm using, you can see it (or maybe guess it) in the video. It's similar to Rockbox indeed, however Rockbox replaces the software on "real" DAPs, and I think it requires at least 1MB of RAM, which is a huge...

    Comment by 'batyann' in item '7HZ Sevenhertz 71 USB DAC'

    Hi does anyone knows if the 7Hz 71 DAC works when plugged to a USB full speed (12Mbit/s max) host ? Thanks

    I built my own DAP

    Kind of. I created only the software, from scratch, and used a cheap Wio terminal for the hardware, driving USB DACs. Until now it's been tested with iFi goBlu (UAC1) Shanling UA1+ (UAC2) Colorfly M1P (UAC2) Coming soon: 7Hz 71 The UI is far from being as nice as commercially available...

    Hi, I'm from Switzerland, I'm a software engineer, and I love listening to music and always been passionate about hifi since I was a little boy. I have a fond memory of a JVC "high end" hifi system at the supermarket when I was maybe 7yo, in the early 80s. I just bought a 660S2, and a few USB...
