You probably aware that SPDIF output is just a digital audio output to connect to external DAC/amp. Thus, W1/W2 will add a clean digital audio output to your smartphone or laptop to connect to outside DAC/amp. Regarding what does W1/W2 do the signal, from the block diagram there is some FPGA DSP processing/buffering, but it hasn't been disclosed exactly what it does. Maybe it re-clocks the digital signal to clean up the jitter using local crystal oscillator (XO), or maybe does more.

In desktop DAC's that is what is happening - re-clocking and if possible with much more accurate clock - which makes the signal more precise and removes (as you said twister6 jitter. You can hear that by having a bit more resolution and accuracy in the sound reproduction.

Who can we ask in that regard? is their any mailadress to L&P where i can contact them?

I took the freedom to wechat the sales Director of L&P. Is O.K. ? Wechat is the Chinese equivalent to Whatsapp and since i do quite some things with China i do have a wechat account and have a connection with L&P. If i get an answer i let you all know.

My W2 is already in UK. Incredible fast 1 day from USA.

as to France - i get it also on Friday as per DHL. I assume Musicteck managed to get some good space in a cargo plane... and shipped quite some little boxes together...
They must have been so busy serving our delivery needs that they surely had no time yet to update their website...

Oh, I see - well in France we can only wave with a Camembert... seems to NOT have the same impact - leider

You can always persuade me with a good French camembert or Saint- Nectaire and a nice Chardonnay

[Niyologist]

Wait. Anyone have the A&K SR 25? I know the on board implementation is different than the W2, but I'm just curious how those two would compare.

Wow, that was fast! Of course you now have the task of giving us the first impressions!
