The WISA transfer is capped at 24/96 max, and also the XLR input has a 1-2-1 conversion of the Analog-digital-analog signal. There is no digital sound on top, so the TUBE sound is not altered.. Believe me, the sound is everywhere, the vocals actually tell you where the speakers are placed, else the music is all around you..Understood. Was there any reason in particular why you didn't use that box?

Thanks for explaining and that's true, WISA is 24/96.
XLR input has a 1-2-1 conversion of the Analog-digital-analog signal.
If this double conversion doesn't audibly cripple music you hear, that's great. I took interest in that Buchardt box because it offers cool in-room correction that doesn't require anything else but a smartphone's own mic. Knowing that room acoustics in most cases is the biggest issue, I'd take a look into that for sure.

FWIW: please check this YouTube review by Currawong . At around 21 min, he is mentioning sort of the same, but when connecting to a different amp. Speculates that it has to do with the WiFi? I really love my new pro, I only use the headphone amp, but I once in a while have noticed some background hiss. However, only experienced this when not playing music.I lately have a problem with my ifi Pro iDSD in combination with the iCan Pro. I get a nasty distortion sound (when playing and when not playing music) from the iCan which drives me crazy. The iDSD is connected via USB to my PC and persists even when I unplug the USB cable, and the removable antenna of the iDSD. Any ideas what to do? Thanks

Thanks - I know the review but forgot he mentioned it. I actually need to do some more experiments, is it the idsd or the ican Pro? I also have an ifi micro BL which does not have any issues with the USB signal coming from the PC. It actually could be the power source ...

Could be an external power supply for example. Can you open up a ticket here please: https://support.ifi-audio.com/

Yes, but I unscrewed the antenna ... so I guess it is not this. Anyway, will do what ifi suggested and open a ticket. Nice they are available to help.I thought he mentioned the WiFi as potential source?

I just bought the IDSD Pro. I use Plex Media Server as my source for streaming my music collection. Plex Media Server is installed on a computer on my local wifi network and I stream from it to various devices in my home. From the Plex iPhone app, I can stream wirelessly from the Plex Media Server to the IDSD via Airplay. How would I stream wirelessly to the IDSD from the Plex app on my android devices?

Let me ask our staff about that. Perhaps they have something solid to try out

Hi Community
A question - I noticed that if I start up the my IFI PRO IDSD while I push the filter selection knob, then I enter into service mode.
The screen now includes more details, for example, external clock 10 MHz (when I use it).
Is there any available document that explains what I can do in this mode and what are all other new information presented on the screen?

Everything we have to say about Pro iDSD is found in this manual:

Enjoy!

Well,
There is no answer to my question in this manual...
I read the manual and everything in your website before I asked my question.
By the way - if you need to reset the Ifi pro - you can do it if you start it up while you push the input selection knob. Not in the manual as well ...

You could try mconnect.
