Yes. Thanks. Sorry I didn't clarify further. The TE7022 does support 24Bit audio via USB, but not in an asyncrhonous mode. On the particular Audio-GD "Fun" model of amp that I currently have, it was an early model. At the time, even the TE7022 wasn't in place and utilized by Audio-GD, so in USB mode, I'm currently limited to 16Bit. Last night, I originally inquired with King-Wa on a TE7022 adaptation, to see if it was available. However, after checking out their Web site for a few more minutes, I saw the TE8802 upgrade option was there, as well as instructions on how to integrate it and get it installed on previous amp / DACs. So, I sent a 2nd e-mail asking about the TE8802, which led to my order being placed.
Edit: I should also clarify. The TE8802 is an item that looks really good on paper. The specs, etc. are all good. However, the reviews still state that using the SPDIF inputs result in slightly better performance. But, the TE8802 is getting close in performance, but not quite there. I just ordered it because the price was $48.00 + shipping. Had it been higher, I may have skipped it. I've also purchased a USB to SPDIF convertor from another member that I should have my hands on in a few days. This will allow me to perform various listening tests to determine what seems to be the appropriate set up for me.
Hum TE7022L support up to 24/96khz ^^ through usb , TE-8802 add up to 192khz and asynchronous mode , the only "downside" on windows is the need of custom drivers .
