Hi,   IMVHO, while strict compliance with the standard may be very important for a "sender" application/device which should not send "illegal" data (foo_asio_proxy, HQPlayer, etc )), I think it shouldn't be so important for a "receiver" such as as device driver as long as it means going beyond...

  In Windows, OSX or Linux?   In Windows+HQPlayer I get those only if I select DoP under "SDM Pack" and then, of course, DSD512 is not available.

  The proxy`s trace file would point to option b.   TBH I believe there is a problem in the way foo_dsd_queries the iDSD. If I'm right it asks for native DSD supported rates independently of the output mode selected and when source PCM is 48/96/192 it gets a negative and passes through...

  DSD64 can be either 44.1K (44,100 x 64= 2,822,400 Hz) or 48K based (48000 x 64 = 3,072,000 Hz).   There no 48K files available AFAIK but it is possible to covert 48/96/192KHz PCM files realtime to DSD6/128/256/512 using Foobar or HQPlayer.

  Thank you very much, hope they include it sooner than later.

  I think you are misunderstanding my posts. At no point I said the iDSD converts PCM to DSD, though it actually does to a point convert to SDM as DSD1793 is not a full R2R chip nut rather a hybrid. I use either Foobar or HQPlayer for converting PCM->DSD. I was just asking whether there is a...

I also have an Amanero USB adapter and it doesn't have this problem.It converts 44.1k and 48k equally fine. I don't think this is a problem with foo_dsd_asio with the exception of not checking max supported PCM rates when selecting DoP instead of ASIO. I've alreay emailed Maxim about this.

I was trying to upsample to DSD in Foobar using SACD plugin and foo_dsd_asio proxy and found that all 48K based sample rate files (48K, 96K & 192K) were being output untouched to mi iDSD micro (LED was either green or yellow colour). After some searching I came across a pdf file in iFi's site...

According to the ESS9018 data sheet (http://www.esstech.com/PDF/SABRE32%20Reference%20PB%20Rev%200.61%20120726.pdf) it accepts up to 1.536MHz in oversampling bypass mode and if you look at note 1) it says the maximum sampling rate using internal oversampling filters 500KHz.

The ST and STX use TI BB's PCM1792A (not 1793) which should have the same performance as the PCM1794 according to specs.    Quote:    

Quote:   I believe XMOS and TE8802 (both true UAC2, driverless under Linux and Mac) were out way before.      

What firmware update??? I don't think the ST or the STX are firmware updatable.   Many sound cards and USB DACs have a single clock and synthesize both frequency families (44.1 & 48) from it.   Funnily I have a problem with ASIO and 88.2 & 176.4KHz files, if I play any cuh material first...

MusicBee outputs both 88.2 and 176.4 through WASAPI (configured not to resample) to a D2X using Unixonar 1.51. On the Same computer Foobar gives an error playing the same thorugh WASAPI 2.1 plugin. I tried on a friend's PC J River MC 17 with an Asus ST and both WASAPI and WASAPI Event Style...

Quote:   The question was precisely if those drivers work as asked, I know you need UAC2 drivers for Windows to support >96KHz but there are some others devices based on the same CM6631 C-Media chip stating no 176.4KHz support but I'm not sure if that is only through SPDIF or if affects...

Can anyone owning a One please confirm whether it accepts 176.4KHz sampling rate through USB in ASIO/bit perfect mode?

New beta official version released today yesterday:   http://www.musiland.com.cn/downloads/drivers/MlCyMon_2.2.0.0_build20111222.exe   EDIT:   Changed URL because Beta has been promoted to official now.

There is a new beta version of drivers out:   http://www.musiland.com.cn/downloads/drivers/beta/MlCyMon_2.2.0.0_build20111214.exe

Unfortunately I don't have a hot air gun, that is why I was asking. Thx.

Thanks for the pics Fab_Flix, great job. Was it hard to unsolder/remove the stock opamp?  

Fab, can you please post some pics?

Did you order one like this?:  

I'll be eagerly waiting for your findings.   Quote:  

Thx for the link Matt. There is also the Soomal.com review but I hate google translated reviews, in them you can more or less get the idea but they are a PIA to read

I think you'll like it and if you don't most probably you'll be able to sell it at a very little loss. As you are going to be the first one here to have a 03 it'll be nice if you could write a lttle review. Cheers
