    Oppo PM-1: A New Planar Magnetic Headphone!

      Not true, both treads are garbage and therefore a waste of time unless... ...one enjoys reading through soap operas and various rubbish many people who don't even own the equipment choose to throw at those who do.   In both treads, less than 15 people actually had a positive contribution...

    Oppo HA-1 Impressions Thread

    Hi,   I may be a bit confused but I recently got the PM1's and it ships with 2 unblanaced cables (3.5mm and 1/4''), right?   The balanced cable you were talking about is 3rd party if I understand correctly. Would you be so kind as to post a link towards it?   Thank you,

    Oppo HA-1 Impressions Thread

    Thanks for the reply,    Thank you for the reply,   I still feel lost and somehow I think you didn't fully address my concern, so I will try to rephrase relative to your reply.   Let's say I do want to give HA-1 exclusive control over the volume, HOW do I do that? HA-1's driver only...

    Oppo HA-1 Impressions Thread

      Hi, sorry for the noob question but I am able to change the from volume from Windows using the little icon found in the system tray.       This happens with both Home Theather Bypass option in Standard or Bypass mode. I should also mention that I detect no difference whatsoever when...

      Hi, thanks for taking the time to help me with this, I appreciate it.   This is how mine looks, identical to yours, lacking only the digital signature. It could be a Windows 7 vs Windows 10 issue but it would be nice if someone could confirm this.

    Thanks again for your reply & your explanations technobear,   it's all new for me so I suppose the learning curve is a bit more steep than I had imagined.   What got me started on that "greyed out" DSD option was the very post you directed me to earlier, namely this. In your post there, DSD...

    Thank you for you reply,   I had to install ASIOProxy, found here to get foo_dsd_asio to display in ASIO drivers.   Latest version is 0.9.2 and looks like this (don't know if there's anything wrong there):       In the SACD tab, the PCM settings seem to be fine:         ...while...

    This is an interesting find, what Windows are you using? My reports below are on Windows 7 x64.   1. I don't have ASIO module in my foobar, did you install it separately?     2. I only have 16 and 24 bit, no 32 bit in iFi Properties, why do you think that is?         3. Connected...

    Oppo HA-1 Impressions Thread

      You're running a Mac and as I understood it, there are no problems with Apple computers.   My concern was strictly related running HA-1 via a PC computer. Can anyone else confirm/infirm that there is no sound in various computer games/other apps running on a PC?   #feelsbadman

    I've all of my music stored in my computer(s) as actual files.   So for me it's about switching between foobar2000/other video & audio players, browsers, video/music editing software etc.   What are your settings in the iFi's app, 2nd tab, namely USB Streaming Mode & ASIO Buffer Size?

      Here is the link to the firmware 5.2B.     This has been rumored before to be the right solution. I'm glad it worked for you but I'll tell you why I don't see this as a proper solution.     1. The very words the manufacturer uses to advertise firmware 5.2B:   Strict quote from...

    Oppo HA-1 Impressions Thread

      Hi,   did you find a way to get sound in those games you mentioned?   Is one to understand that the lack of WHQL drivers for the OPPO HA-1 may translate in having no sound in some/most computer games?   I reckon that's not...very good.

      I'm not trying to discourage you but I have 4 PC computers in my home (all running Windows 7 x64) + one Macbook Pro.   One of them has a fresh (drivers only, no apps except foobar2000 + Chrome installed) Windows 7 x64 installed (including all updates). The issue persists on all of 'em, no...

      I didn't want to go into this, but since you insist. I find it great that you have been critical of iFi when you wished to, I believe myself & the others have the same right.       I detected fanboyism & got triggered, especially since you are not (or are you?) working for iFi and...

      You know as well as I do that reverting to an older firmware is not a solution, at least not a just/fair one. I don't think I have to explain why.   iFi replied here to another user a few posts back in a rather unkind & less promising manner. A few posts after that a somewhat different...

        I do, and it's not 5 seconds, it's more like 3 seconds for me (PC, not MAC).   It manifests both in foobar2000 and youtube.   The device doesn't have to wait those 15 seconds to go into idle to have these problems.   1.Playing the first track after opening foobar2000 ---> 3 seconds...

    Greetings everyone,   first of all I must confess I am completely new to this perspective on listening one's favorite music. Some call it a hobby but I somehow feel but it could mean more than that to some.    Not wanting to bore you with the details of my recent (pseudo-relatively...
