Amanero board is USB Audio Class 2.0 compatible. It means that modern operating systems like Linux or Android work instantly without a need of installing vendor specific drivers. Windows 10 came late on the board with the Creators revision, initially buggy, now working properly. For DSD playback you will have to configure both player and OS for bit-perfect transfers (bypassing the OS mixer). It is good to do it anyway (for a maximum SQ), but for you it will be an ultimate test when playing DSD files.Quick question about USB drivers for Audio-GD DACs. I just bought a R-28 2018 version used and am waiting for it to arrive. Do the Amanero drivers need to be installed for basic audio playback via or are they just for DSD playback?
Hi, I just got an R1 and successfully upgrade the Amanero board, but I also wanted to update to the latest R1tda_Asy_P_dop1.1 firmware.
I downloaded it from http://www.audio-gd.com/Firmwaredownload.htm and had no problems flashing it (or so i think). According to the manual, there is only one NOS mode, but in the menu I'm still able to select N1,2 and 3. Is this working as intended, or did the firmware flash somehow fail?
Is there a way to check what firmware is installed on the device?

The same about PLL option and synchronisation method for I2S input. Strange thing that these options are only available in NOS mode, while there are completely independent to the oversampling process. All of them should be available in both NOS/OS modes. I don't care, as I don't need OS mode, but it is a bit confusing, so I am not surprised that people keep asking. It would be more clear if all clock synchronisation options were grouped together.While operating under NOS, you can still sample the data using different algorithms, the different mode numbers refer to the sampling metholody. The folloiwing is posted from the AGD website:
----------------------------------------------------------
While OS setting on "N" mean the DAC working under NOS mode, different modes offer different sound features, usually mode 3 is most users favorite. Or depend on your sense .
Mode 1 : Simplest data process .
Mode 2 : Data fifo.
Mode 3 : Fastest data process.

Did you find any comparisons?Hi guys. I'm looking to buy either the Denafrips Ares II or R-1 soon. Has anyone used both and can give me some feedback on both?
By wipe the Amenaro, do you mean on the DAC itself or on the PC ? To my knowledge no one has connected the Blaster to the port on the rear of the unit. I would have to think that would be the only way to "Wipe Amenaro" on the DAC. Also the warranty sticker is still intact so no one has been inside the unit. There is no red switch (talked about on the AGD sit., on the rear of the unit) As Far as on the PC Amenaro was installed via the link on AGD, It was Uninstalled and re-installed just to check incase a bad install............I also tried down loading the drivers for windows found on AGD's siteIf you wipe the Amanero by mistake this would be a symptom
