SMSL SU-9 Balanced DAC Review

[somebodyelse]

@SMSL-Mandy can you comment on the discussion starting around post 1489 regarding the firmware fix for early SU-9, the pinout for the necessary cable, and the proposal to share the firmware on github?

Hi folks (and @SMSL-Mandy, in particular ),

My issue is I'm using SU-9 with JRiver Media Center set to the DSD output. The config works well and play nicely, there's just one glitch.

When changing tracks manually (e.g. switching to a different album), it seems a part of the previous song stays in the buffer. So instead of playing a new song from the beginning, I first hear 1-2 seconds of the previous song . Is there a way to avoid it?

I tried to decrease XMOS driver buffer size, but when JRiver is started it automatically gets back to the highest value possible (32,768 samples), I also tried to decrease JRiver buffer size and turn off the hardware buffer, but there's no difference...
