xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend

iFi is an ASP (analog signal processing) driven company. We will not do any sort of digital EQ on our products it goes against our design mentality.

Ok. I don't get ASP vs DSP design ethos on a digital audio converter that has usb decrapifiers, digital reclocking etc, but that's just me.. both can coexist and offer great flexibility to customers, and can be transparent enough if well implemented.

Anyhow.. a man can dream.. I'd love a Swiss army knife product like the Qudelix in a Gryphon style portable all in one with better sq

I don't know if this has already been posted here before, but I just found the Flying Gryphon bonus feature when turning on/off

I have been living for more than a month now with the gryphon and the focal utopia, mostly listening at night, and this dac makes my foot start to tap easily without me thinking of doing it. And there are many dac’s that don’t make my foot tap often.

This says a lot about the sound of the gryphon to me or any other gear that makes me doing this involuntary without thinking, is what music is all about.

I'm trying to get mqa to work properly. With phone hooked up through usb, the input led is green.
Playing master mqa tracks in uapp the led for kHz is green and sometimes blue.
Any suggestions? I have add on purchase in uapp. On the oled screen it just says 44 or 48

Open UAPP settings in USB Audio and select Bit perfect option

still can't figure out how to unlock the animation and minimum phase filter,
was it in sequence (volume middle button -> xbass/xspace -> input -> volume middle button twice?) or at the same time?

In sequence. Took me a few tries too! You need to press fairly quickly and without pausing.
