New M8 DAC from SMSL (9018/XMOS)
Mar 29, 2017 at 4:41 PM Post #1,007 of 1,112
Strangely, the new one seems to have lower SNR than original m8.
M8a ~ 117 http://www.smsl-audio.com/productshow.asp?id=116
M8 ~ 125 https://www.amazon.com/ES9018-Optical-Coaxial-Asynchronous-decoder/dp/B00PS0WLX6

OK I just received my SMSL M8 DAC latest build (Post Dec 2016).  I did not receive any installation CD and have no idea how to get my PC to recognize this DAC.  I looked in my Control Panel under Sound Devices and obviously it is not there.  How do I get Windows 10 to see my DAC so that I can use it?

OK thanks for the info about the driver.  I got the appropriate driver from web site but now I am getting an error when I try to install:  
 
NSIS ERROR
 
Error Launching Installer
 
I have deleted and downloaded this driver multiple times and tried to install with same results.  Any idea why this is happening?  Windows 10 OS.
 
Thanks,
 
Mike

This is what happens if the installer is corrupted or incomplete, it can sometimes be caused by antivirus' and other times caused by your internet connection dropping to the SMSL site.
Like I said I am using the one from the link I provided.

Is this the version that you downloaded?
 
USB Audio Class 2.0 Evaluation Driver for Windows 
 
It said something about beep tones every 5 minutes and that didn't sound like something that I wanted to hear :)
