Singxer SU-1 Owners

[rocky500]

Hello, just got the SU2 to be connected to my Audio GD dac, problem is, via i2s the channels switch. From the website it says all the switches should be off, what switches? on the back? I've turned them off and all I get is static with red light blinking on the singxer.

On the Previuos SU-1, it was on the bottom. Flip yours over and have a look.

I've just fixed it, thanks.
Had to use this pins define,

Sadly the singxer won't accept a usb cable with 5v pin blocked.

No, the USB powers the xmos controller, everything else powered by PSU.

Out of the box, the SU2 via i2s to the R2R11 is very dry, liquid and plays dsd flawlessly.

I think the switches are on the bottom of the SU-2
Be careful to power off the SU-2 and the DAC prior to pulling the HDMI i2s cord out or in.
If it were me, I would just swap the interconnects to get the correct R/L orientation if all switches are already at the bottom.
(Someone here will figure out the correct switch settings sooner or later)
Let us know how it sounds!!!

Great news! Probably a different flavor available using a 10 Mhz OCXO input...
(I also bought a R2R11 with i2s HDMI in - fantastic DAC... using as DAC only with SU-1)

The PRaT on the SU2 is so good, very addictive.

Update: The Singxer su2 has a good prat, control and grip, sound stage, detail but lacking a bit of
midrange and tonality like the HD800..
Wish it had a little bit forward mids, but I bet on different devices it'll excel.

Update: The Singxer su2 has a good prat, sound stage, detail but that's about it..
midrange and tonality are dead.. no life.. like the HD800..
It's painful to listen to this device, thought it needed burn in but I was wrong.

;s ouch

Will stick to SU-1

I moved from SU1 to SU6 to U16 then DI-20HE now.
In my case DI-20HE > U16 > SU6 > SU1.

 

[ProLoL]

For me it's Topping D10(only because of bit perfect and true to life speed via coax out) -> U16 -> SU2 -> Amanero. (strictly for R2R11)
Midrange is where the heart is, I don't care about the rest.
Why the Topping is no1? it lacks everything from sound stage to dynamics, less is more!, but the speed is unbelievable! the performance is happening and it's happening right now! only via coax out (using 30cm QED coax).

I'm still loving my SU-1 modded with external 5V power supply~~

I recently connected my unmodded SU-1 through a Furman power conditioner rather than direct to mains, and the difference is an audibly quieter noise floor. Other changes are harder to assess but air around instruments, clarity / separation seem improved as well.

Furman power conditioner.

Furman PST 8 Digital?

Furman PST 8 Digital?

I actually went with the Furman Elite-15 PF i, found a good deal and the extra current available to the amp. section (separate outlets from where SU-1 is plugged in) appealed to me. So far VERY pleased.
