    Something to add playing on the flow I am in at the moment: I also don't want to rooin the rest of my life. - And why isn't it possible to switch off bluetooth when using ethernet if it declines sound quality? Or did I miss an alternation? There ist a new version of iDSDpro on market which I...

    - And anyway: offering hardware usable (partly) only with software of nonproprietory origin (either cheap or expensive) – strange... What kind of politics would be there inside ifi's, how could they come out to decide: best hardware but cripple software to use? I really like my iDSDpro (at last...

    Fine. What about releasing another long time task you told me to do long time ago: how to transform mp3 into DSD via ASIO newer than v.0,76 (-> v. 2.12)? Or should I really go back to the old version? I actually don't know how the newer one gives me better perfomance. Thanks, tinnitize

    Now to striptease this new diplomatic answer: Is this 'almost' meant in astronomic time scale or indeed a terrestrian? Can't get regular interest for my fat and lazy iDSDpro budget cause of the European financial policy: dead money waiting to resurrect as an iDSDpro... Tinnitizering

    Quo usque tandem abutere, ifi, patientia nostra? (Cicero today) Now to ask frankly: Why is it so difficult, ifi, to fulfill your promise you gave about one year and a half ago: to offer two different front panels: one (default) with the 2,5mm balanced and another (new) with the many time asked...

    Hi again! Now maybe in the meanwhile, ifi got the chance to have two hands free in order to drill a bigger hole in the front panel and, at the very end, insert the long, very long awaited 4,4mm mini XLR socket - just to prevent "the same procedure as last year" (look at the promised date above...

    So ifi attach to iDSDpro an upgraded iPower+ 15V with three primary rails and the secundary grounded internally thus my version for my iCANpro is old stuff. They could have told me... ;-) Generally I would appreciate news from ifi when they launch a new or altered product – how to make them do...

    So that 's what I was indicating: iDSDpro has a different SMPS than iCANpro thus owning three primary rails? Thanks

    The manuals for BL/silver and iCANpro are, for my understanding, also a bit scant regarding the complexity of the matter. Tinnitize

    The stock SMPS for my iCANpro has two pimary rails thus no connection to ground. So I doubt that this SMPS can be grounded internally, and the stock SMPS of iDSDpro should be a different one, or is it? Tinnitize

    I am sorry, should have posted this with a smiley to make it clear: It is a saying in Germany cause of this well known film many of us here look at again and again at Dec 31.

    Thanks for the information, Em2016 - maybe I should have read the iXXXpro manuals properly. But nonetheless I did apply it to my iCANpro, and it didn't heart at all and of course not: just doubled the grounding. I added it the same time to my iUSB3.0 and got the described improvement while it...

    Of course some if not most of you know this well, so you Em2016, but I find it really worth mentioning. And to add: I now use my old once reasonably priced achieved naked 240VA isolation transformer beast (yes, needs a cage) for iUSB3.0, iCANpro and BL and also was surprised by the improvenment...

    -- Better replace the SMPS with a proper LPS and gain better dynamics, shaping, details, reverb, smoothness and so on - or at least use the JSSG grounding of extremely high impedance noise typical for SMPS with two secundary rails. Using the latter causes as much better sound as achieved with...

    Well, lads I roughly remember (too lazy to search for the posts) that last February ifi said they heard from some people during an event who are keen on getting a front with 4,4mm plugs (after a lot of us talked about their likes for it in this tread) and now they will make a new front with it...

    Hi Technobear, it's a pitty that you failed to upgrade 5.3c properly! I wonder why just you being techno versatile don't assume that there must have been a faulty upgrade proceeding because many and most others don't have any problems doing so. I invite you to look back at my post Nov 5, 2018...

    Yes, indeed. And I was surprised! So much more space, as if more instruments zu be "seen" (looking with your ears, me listening much better with my eyes open, just try it: close and open again while listening), voices better to localize, better shaping of sound sources, much more realistic...
