Ah, just re-read - I see that you've already tried sending them an e-mail... Hopefully that will work.

Does the X-22 need SU-1 to get its best like X-20?

The best sound I can get is using a modded Singxer SU-1> I2S > X22.

Can you tell me more the the mod part? what to do?

Right now i'm thorn between X-22 and that new shiny L.K.S. Audio MH-DA004 not sure if its worth $350 price jump.

Has anyone posted anywhere comparing the sound of the x22 with the lks? I am very curious if the x22 is as good. I have not found detailed reviews which compare the x22 to other high quality dacs. I have been very happy with the Gustard x20 pro. Not sure if an upgrade to the lks or the x22 would be significant.

I'm going through the LKS thread will let you know if I found anything.
Man that thing looks beautiful but the remote is so ugly.

All the info I got to mod my SU-1 came from this thread.

It use exactly the same USB card so can expect any better.

Does anyone here have the Singxer? Just curious if it had an impact.
Are the usb parts the same?

Post #127 is the Singxer SU-1 (modded), it does a great job using I2S output to the X22 I2S input.

There is a modded SU-1 ready to go here.

Or the regular SU-1.

Another question. What master clock setting do I use for asynchronous timing? I read the manual but didn't understand as the English is a little spotty.
My music files come from an Intel Nuc mini-pc that surly isnt asynchronous to my X22 to a Parasound P5 preamp.
Should I choose "normal" to get asynchronous timing to my preamp?
Sorry, if that's a silly question but I'm pretty new to this stuff
Thanks

 

[rafabro]

Your preamp has nothing to do with clock in your DAC
Setting is for internal clock. You should hear difference between settings. One is definitely better. AUTO probably

 

[zonka]

I figured that. The English is so poor in the manual that it's hard for me to follow.
Is this asynchronous in either master clock mode?
Thanks

One more - does anyone know how the digital volume control is implented? Do we know of it is 24 bit or 32 bit volume control?
