Please don't :D  

I suspect you're referring to the noise / distortion problem that has a much greater affect on sensitive 'phones.

Do you also get a fraction of a second 'pause' or 'dropout' type effect on Tidal tracks?


None. Both on connected and offline mode. Most of the time especially at work I use Tidal exclusively since I'm not on my NAD server or close proximity of it.

Could someone help me on this ? Just got my new CIEM and the DP-X1 lately and there's a little problem that occurs.

I found that whenever I am playing 24/96 (upsampled) WAVs there will be a small "di-di-di-di-di-di-di-crack" sound repeatedly throughout the whole song (don't really know how to describe that noise :confused_face:  ). It only happens to the right ear IEM and I'm getting annoyed by this (left IEM is working fine). 

But for all other files (e.g. 16/44.1, DSD 64.. etc) the problem doesn't exist. Not sure if it is a problem of my IEM or a problem with the DP-X1 playing 24/96 upsampled WAVs. 

Tried testing this on many tracks and would appreciate any help ! :)  

Now with the new update, it solved.

BTW I found a way to EQ Tidal during balanced Mode without any loss of sound quality... It EQ's the whole OS, so loving it so far.

 
BTW, you need to recharge your dpx1

For owners who have a DP-X1 and are able to playback MQA files.

One question, if anyone has the answer, does the MQA file no matter what size playback is always at PCM 192Khz?


MQA 352Khz Playback at 192Khz PCM
 
 

MQA 96Khz Playback at 192Khz PCM


Just a bit puzzled

EDIT: Even more puzzling if played via USB out......
 

MQA 352Khz Playback 88Khz PCM

Double
