    Gustard DAC-A26 - AK4499EX DAC :: Impressions Thread

    I thought the whole idea was to make computer audio to sound or get close to analogue sound. With oversampling and upscaling you are doing the opposite - getting away from the analogue sound. That is why I choose the hard and more expensive way. I intended to use A26 as a DAC only but its...

    You did not answer my question. Have you ever tried JPlay?

    Gustard DAC-A26 - AK4499EX DAC :: Impressions Thread

    No it doesn't. Why do you think upsampling files would improve SQ? If that was the case Qobuz and Tidal should have implemented upsampling. What's the big deal upsampling a Flac file (16/44.1) to DSD256? Just making a lot of work for the processor of your PC or Mac. Not to mention the noice this...

    have you ever tried JPlay? Double PC configuration? Streaming Qobuz and Tidal via JPlay app from iPad? If not you're the one missing out.

    Gustard DAC-A26 - AK4499EX DAC :: Impressions Thread

    I've recently bought A26 and I am already sorry for doing this. I am using Gustard X20 (modified) with Singer SU-1 (modified) via HDMI (I2S) connection. I also use dual PC with JPlay Femto Net cards, JPlay Femto Usb card for streaming and JPlay app. as a control point. I was very disappointed of...

    Go for Ghentaudio! They are of extreme quality. They have various options for quality too. If money is no problem go for the best one.

    It looks to me as a power problem. What power plan have you chosen? You must disable usb selective suspend. And go to device manager and uncheck power save on all usb controllers. They must be awake all the time. If they become sleepy - the system will not recognize what is connected to them.

    Here are the links for Holo and Singxer drivers. They are the same just different names. https://kitsunehifi.com/product/springdacgreen/ Singxer_USBAudio_v4.36.0_2017-11-14_DSD512.rar

    Try with lowest latency first. If connection is not stable - increase latency to the point you have stable connection. I am sure you SQ is much better now.

    Install the new driver, either Holo 4.35 or Singxer 4.36. Unthick Asio safe and choose minimum latency. You won't believe your ears, what you're listening.

    Matrix X-SPDIF 2 - a Singxer SU-1 killer?

    Well, after all discussions here, I was not convinced that it is actually a Singxer SU-1 killer. Singxer has its own power supply and if you try to modificate it even a bit there's a huge difference in SQ. Someone mentioned here that Singxer is not converting DoP to Native. It is its main job...

    Yes, you've got the choice of 16 and 24bits.
