Thank you.
I have been running the CDT-8 with upsampling off and it sounds very good that way as well.
Was really hoping to use i2s and upsampling to 24bit/768kHz, but the i2s wiring layout from the CDT-8 if off by one pin compared with the D400EX. Might get an HDMI terminal like this one: https://www.amazon.com/Jienk-Solderless-Terminal-Breakout-Connector/dp/B08XQH7SZ3?th=1 and try to reconcile the NuPrime and the SMSL. Maybe that will solve the upsampling problem as well.
The [Gen. 1] Mystique only has XMOS 24/192 USB in, so I cannot use the CDT-8 as-is with this DAC. Another option would be a USB-to-COAX or OPT adapter, but I'm not sure these adapters work for USB input.
