Has anyone experimented with the XMOS controller in the HA-1? The Oppo uses the XMOS 6U6C5 to control the display... I was wondering if it would be possible to have a custom spectrum render on the LED.

Have any of you noticed Windows 10 Fall Creator's update supports native ASIO?! Have any of you manged to get the Oppo HA-1 to work with the new Win10 ASIO native support?

There was a firmware 1.4.3 for certain HA-1 models, it only updated the display screen I/O for the slightly different LCD. For most HA-1 owners; the latest and final firmware is 1.3.2.

Yes, it has a housing. I took it out of the case to show you guys the internals so you could see the details. I recently saw the exact PCB in a different branded enclosure on AliExpress for $18US (without PSU). In my honest opinion this is not worth the international shipping fees.

Well it's a long story: purchased 600ohm 990pros (YJ-01 was included for free but not powerful enough***). I read about the HA-1...needed the power and wanted to test the HeadFi claims of DSD superiority. I tried DSD and was not impressed (please no haters/trolls).   The Stax distributor was...

You can buy mine. Works perfectly, rarely used, still in original packaging. Black.   I paired the HA-1 with the STAX SRS-3170 (220V 50Hz). Moving back to 120V 60hz country.   I'll throw in a Kasso YJ-01 class A tube amp. The power supply was chewed up, it could be rewired. 12V@2.0A. (not a...

Jaben gave me the Kasso YJ-01 for free when I bought a set of DT990 Pros. I have the amp here in Bangkok and do not want/need it. $15USD/500THB + shipping.    ****please have reasonable expectations; this amp was a free promo item... dont expect much**** perhaps it can be improved? Here are...

No....I am still struggling with settings/drivers/FOOBAR components. I simply do not have the skillset/knowledge to get the HA-1 working 100% for everything. I have run though dozens of versions of SACD and ASIO components in Foobar. Don't get me wrong!: The HA-1 sounds GREAT, but I believe...

Slightly off topic and will result in pages of flaming and product pushing. As far as recommending bookshelf speakers; its really up to your preference but be on the lookout for those old Monsoons; those were great! They had a decent sub as well. I would love to have a pair on this Oppo.

    I am not claiming the Oppo HA-1 does not work for games; simply said I cannot get it to work and went on to ask people to share the settings to make the steam games work.   I have tried to make the USB DAC as default device in playback devices, also I have optical toslink (realtek) tried...

I love how the thread was hijacked for 2-3 pages of a Sennheiser viral marketing effort and that was ok with you. One mention of Stax sets you off.   Well stop turning an HA-1 Impressions thread into an HD800 viral marketing campaign and rewire instruction thread. Sennheiser trolls are the...

  @craftyhack Can you describe your settings for gaming?; I cannot get game audio to play over the Oppo via USB or Optical. All of the windows sounds work; foobar works, vlc works. I cannot any of the games I own working over the HA-1: (GTAV, NFS Most Wanted/The Run, Sniper Elite V2...

@LarryMagoo   When I lift my finger off the volume button; there is a 0.5 second delay; so the volume does not stop for (-/+) 0.5-1.0db. I'm going to refer to this as "knob inertia".. I don't know if it's the remote, knob, or motor, but it is an issue which could annoy people.   @WayTooCrazy...

@WayTooCrazy   I am not sure what you are looking for in a DAC. For me I was simply looking to put my "toe in the water" of DSD.    I've owned the HA-1 for 2 months now. I should have gone with the OPPO BDP-105D; same features as the HA-1 (slightly less money than the HA-1 here in Asia), and...

My first post on this forum, happy I found this place.   I have owned 2 TEAC DACs, a Dragonfly, and dozens of integrated RealTek, Creative, and ASUS DACs on computers/sound cards over the years; nothing overly impressive about any of them. I have listened to the AudioLab MDAC, Cambridge...
