Hi everyone. Just picked up my Dave (black color looks gorgeous) on Saturday. Everything seems fine except that it will occasionally detect wrong sampling frequency. This usually happens when I switch from DSD+ to PCM+ or vice versa. For example, when I change from DSD+ to PCM+ when playing music in 44.1kHz format, Dave may display 88Khz and output some strange sound. I will have to stop and restart Audirvana+ for Dave to re-detect the sample frequency. In most case, this solves the problem but sometimes, I have to stop and restart the music 2 or 3 times in order for Dave to detect the correct sample frequency. On rare occasions, even music was played for the first time after it was switched on, Dave may detect the wrong sampling frequency, and I will have to stop and restart the track with Audirvana+ for Dave to re-detect the correct sample frequency.
I am using iMac to Dave with Audioquest Diamond USB Cable, and then, direct to Utopia. Power cable is stock. In the past, Hugo TT was used in the same way as the Dave and no such problem ever arised.
Has anyone experienced this before? Should I be concerned?
There is a long thread on the Roon support forums about this issue. Go to Roon and search for Dave.
