    Khadas Tone2 Pro Review (DAC & Amp)

    Hi, I didn't saw your post at first, just now after coming back to say that it's back to a very good price with the BF offers: $159.20 It's less than what I paid almost two years ago, and I would absolutely recommend it if it matches your needs. I don't use it exclusively as pure DAC, more when...

    Beta-test: DeltaWave Null Comparison software

    Thanks @pkane ! So, this one is showing v2.0.11 (the one from yesterday was v2.0.10, I still have it and the file size is a little bit different). I can select an ASIO channel higher than L or R, but it's not as perfect than in Multitone Analyser at this moment: - after testing an interface...

    Beta-test: DeltaWave Null Comparison software

    Hi @pkane thanks for your work, but I tried to install this new version, and didn't see any change in the channels selection, so I completely uninstalled DW, then installed again and still the same. I didn't see it at first, but it shows "v2.0.10", not "v2.0.11" like in your post A link error...

    Topping D10 Balanced Review (USB DAC)

    A little warning... it's right, but also a bit wrong by omission of details: it's right that two DACs with good enough measurements will be audibly indistinguishable, but IF they are compared using the same filter or same kind of filters on both DACs. If they use different filters (fixed, or set...

    SMSL D-6s Balanced DAC Review

    There are indeed several reasons to pick the DL200 over the D-6s, and I thought the only one in favor of the D-6s was the form factor for people wanting this kind, but I also found (if I read it correctly) that the DL200 doesn't have a pre mode on line outputs (SE and balanced) To be fair with...

    Beta-test: DeltaWave Null Comparison software

    Hi, never got this problem with W10, I just checked to be sure and the main difference I see is that I never got a Phase Offset result like that (-730,380405ms), it's more +/- 0.00xxxx ms

    SMSL D-6s Balanced DAC Review

    The D-6S uses the ES9039Q2M DAC chipset, and the decoding/rendering of MQA is made by the XMOS XU316 (like a lot of DACs) It has almost never been used like in the best case it could be, and this would start with at least doing the mastering with an MQA encoder, if not using it to record tracks...

    Topping E2x2 Audio Interface Review

    It would be like using the ES9038PRO that is in DM7, but routing the first 4 channels (1/2 and 3/4) to line outputs and the next 4 channels (5/6 and 7/8) to two headphones outputs

    Topping E2x2 Audio Interface Review

    Don't worry, if the preamps are great, people will know in the end OK, so at least you can send two different signal on 1/2 line and 3/4 headphones. But if it doesn't make the cost too much high, you might consider for the next product to totally separate line outputs and headphones, I might be...

    Topping E2x2 Audio Interface Review

    Great! So I suppose one stereo signal on line outputs, and another one one the headphones outputs? (same signal for both headphones, but possibility to use two different headphones with low/high gain and volume adjustable for each one)

    Topping E2x2 Audio Interface Review

    It seems other interfaces are in the same case, like @Postlan said. I certainly have used mainly interfaces with more channels, or my memory was biased because the last one I tried with the same number of ports (2 XLR/Jack inputs, 2 Jacks output and 1 stereo headphones output) is the Apollo...

    Topping E2x2 Audio Interface Review

    Thank you, and looking at the picture on your first post with 3/4 and 5/6 being loopback channels, it certainly the same output (the name E2x2 matching 2 In / 2 Out too) I'm not sure that I ever saw one interface without independent headphones output, and it makes more sense to separate line...

    Topping E2x2 Audio Interface Review

    For a "standard" audio interface with mic preamp, it's the NI Komplete Audio 6 MK2 at $133 according to this with "at least 1 SPDIF" checked: https://www.thomannmusic.com/cat_GK_staius.html?reload=1&feature-51915-first=1&feature-51915-last=4&oa=pra&gk=STAIUS&cme=false&filter=true More features...

    Yes, exactly like it was added to MTA ;)

    Beta-test: DeltaWave Null Comparison software

    Thanks again @pkane ! I forgot to ask you if it would be possible to update the ASIO library like you did for MTA? When one use AD or DA converters with only ADAT In or Out, it's needed to link them to an audio interface, and it's often not possible to select the ADAT channels as L or R

    SMSL DL200 the best ever value DAC/AMP?

    Hi, unless I missed it, I see that nobody tried to change the DPLL setting, which might be the cause for some problem:

    Beta-test: DeltaWave Null Comparison software

    I just finished to test, but I found the bug was found, great. And indeed, I had no bug at all using WAV. I did your test (except I'm not sure if we had the exact same setting in PRO-Q 3 (mine was on Zero Latency mode for example), and here are the results: L - diff -48.5dB [-51.42dBA]...

    Beta-test: DeltaWave Null Comparison software

    Thanks for the answer. And no, I've used a lot DeltaWave but didn't tried your test yet, I will when I get a moment as I have this file and also Pro-Q3 I said there shouldn't be such a difference because I missed the part where you said these results were after applying a EQ cut, so it was not...

    XMOS driver settings for no cutoff/delay

    I don't think it's linked to FIFO, I think it's just that the inputs on XU316 are actived, even if not used in the DAC, to provide better compatibility in ASIO mode. It's known that some softwares can use ASIO driver correctly only if there are outputs and inputs listed in the driver. So I...
