    New M8 DAC from SMSL (9018/XMOS)

    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 :)

    New M8 DAC from SMSL (9018/XMOS)

    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...
