I saw one brief impression between the S1 and mojo. Has anyone else compared the two? @twister6 how are those elysium’s treating you?

For me s1 with dental efx sounds better than the mojo

Impressive isn't it for such a small device?

Very impressive what the guys from Lotoo did!

Yes indeed, this product should widely sell!

Thanks to everyone that has provided opinions on the S1 so far, I should have one in my possession this week

The output sample bit rate is not always accurate. For example when playing 24/192 will show 32/192.
Anyone else noticed?

Which player are you using? In most cases the player will just use whatever source bits it has 16,24,32 and sends them in the most significant bit of 32 bit samples. I checked with JRiver Media Center where you can actually control the output bit depth and the S1 correctly switches between the selected formats. See attached

I have used it with LG V50 with USB audio player Pro. Hopefully with the next update they will fix the the sample bit rate issue.

The PAW S1 works correctly and displays what it is being send. Sending 16 or 24 bit samples in the most significant bits of 32 bit audio samples is likely exactly what you want. USB Audio player Pro has an option to force 16 bit samples for phones that might struggle with the bandwidth of 24 or 32 bit audio sample. If you select this option you will see the display on the PAW S1 reflect this. However this will truncate any sample with higher bit depth so it is not recommended. So USB Audio player Pro is also doing the right thing?

The bit rate rather than the bit depth also tracks what is being send correctly according to my tests on JRiver and the phone.

So I am not sure there is anything to fix for Lotoo or USB Audio Player Pro.

Cheers

well, on its way, it’s going to be a fun weekend if it makes it before Friday to Mexican customs, whenever it arrives, ill
Be happy to compare this 2. Been meaning to get e1da products though the g3 sounds the most appealing since I’m an iOS user. This is going to be fun!

i noticed the same...appears to function as it should

As of the latest Neutron upgrade 2.14.1 the PAW S1 is now working correctly with the Direct USB driver for all bit rates including DSD when you select DOP.

Kind of surprised so many people have units at hand already. I’m in China and the S1 has been sold out on Lotoo’s JD store (kind of China equivalent to Amazon) for ages:

Hi, I'm interested in this, should I expect any hiss with Andromeda? and do we know what's impedance output using 4.4 output?
Thank you

I have a Solaris 2020, i can hear little hiss

Did anyone tried full size headphones? On the 3.5 drives Koss Porta Pro 60 ohm on high gain very well.
