Are you sure it's static and not something from the cabling or casing being bumped around? What would happen if you put the mDSD into a little ziploc bag or something? just a random though, as this seems like very strange behaviour and static does not typically jump without a path to flow (so I wouldn'tt expect it to happen inside a pocket... but who knows).

What's the maximum data output capabilities of the SPDIF bridge in PCM and DSD terms? Is DSD Native or DoP over the SPDIF bridge?

I believe it is DoP and I *think* the limit is 24/96 as that is the typical limit of optical spdif, but it would be best to ask @jasonl

Encore mDSD can output 24bit/192kHz to optical for PCM and DoP64 (DSD64 over PCM).
It can decode 32bit/384kHz for digital to analog output. The digital output is limited by what optical can transmit.

Does anyone in the UK have an mDSD they would like to sell? I am especially interested in trying this with DSD256.

I just bought this to use with my iPhone 7 Plus. It works if I connect it via apple usb 3 to lightning adapter, however it doesn't work as soon as I remove the power cable. I phone doesn't recognise it without additional power

It works for me. You have to plug it in before you turn on your phone/screen.

Hi eldss,

I tried but it doesn't work at all. The red led keep flashing and my iphone just plays from its speakers rather than through dac

Hey eldss, what is your setup like? I use Apple's official lightning to usb 3 camera adapter (the new version), do you think that's the problem? Shall I use the plain lightning to usb camera adapter instead?

Yes, I’m using the older version.

Hi everyone, me again. I bought normal lightning to usb dac and it worked (for 10 min) then my iPhone said @the device is using too much power@ and it stopped working ((( I fed up having too many issues with iphone really Is there a solution for this??

How well does the headamp of this thing drive full sized high impedance headphones compared to, say, an udsd, NextDrive Spectra or the Dragonfly Red?

40 mW at 32 Ohms isn't a very promissing indicator...

 

[Armaegis]

40mw will drive most portable type headphones and iems to dangerous ear splitting levels.

But If you're spending the money on a full sized high impedance low sensitivity headphone that gobbles watts of power, then don't shortchange yourself and get a proper sized amp. I say this as one of the nutjobs with an HE-6 driven off a speaker amp.

I just bought an mdsd. It does not work for me with windows. I can not find any drivers anywhere. No luck with my android phone either. It improves sound quite a bit but I get this horrible stutter ever 10-20 seconds.

 

[Retrotom]

And it rattles.
