    T+A HiFi - DAC 200 - Official Discussion Thread

    Thank you for this very interesting review. Do you have any comment/comparison with the Holo May that you seem to affectionate, when used in conjonction with HQPlayer in DSD ? Or perhaps to the Cen.Grand DSDAC 1.0 if you have listened to it ?

    Holo Audio Red Streamer

    In case you have an Holo Red, you need the licence for GentooPlayer and the licence for Diretta (around 100 EUR). You will need to install a driver (Windows or Linux) on your server, but there are free.

    I kind of struggled with the update process of the Amanero driver. I wrote this (inspired from Amanero instructions) in order to help others. How to upgrade the Amanero firmware to operate in full DSD (instead of DoP) with Linux devices (and in connexion with SOtM sMS-200 devices)...

    Audio-GD DI-20

    Hi everyone, I’m new here. I just received my new DI20-HE. I am using it, in connexion with a Mutec Ref-10, to produce a I2S flow for my DAC. I wanted to know if there is any “better” firmware version to support the Ref-10 ? Is 3.933 better than the one which is shipped with the box ? Thanks.
