Mundorf M-Lytic HV electrolytes in second stage of PSU Its not just the bling case.Was it you who posted all the "extras" that the GA has? Hard to imagine that the GA is better than the A+.but the Leichtenstein crew assures me of that. I don't want to be mean but it seems to me that everything started since I installed Audirvana plus on my laptop.I just upgraded to Audirvana 3 as well.but not yet checked out its features.
I re-installed windows 10 but nothing change. I seriously doubt that a different DAC it will give me different results. Everything was working perfect till a week ago. I'm agree when you say that Chord is very good in delivering what advertise. The Mojo only support DSD 256 over usb, not over optical or coax. Tested with success, 705KHz working perfectly.Īm I correct that you used to be able to play DSD 256 on your i7 laptop but now you cannot? Confirm, you are correctĬan you run the JMark test on the i7 and the i5 systems? Sorry, I don't know what is as JMark test.
That is why I asked if you can play 705 KHz PCM file.
Yes correct and isn't working using ASIO drivers as well.Ī DSD 256 file played as DoP sends a PCM stream at 705 KHz. I think what you are saying is that neither a DSD 256 file or a PCM file converted on the fly to DSD 256 plays correctly using WASAPI. Just doing copy paste of your questions with answer next to it. You might want to ask Chord about play DSD 256. Mojo is supposed to play DSD 256 and Chord is pretty good at delivering what the advertise. That is why I asked if you can play 705 KHz PCM file.Īm I correct that you used to be able to play DSD 256 on your i7 laptop but now you cannot?Ĭan you run the JMark test on the i7 and the i5 systems? If that is the case, then the problem is probably not CPU related, since a DSD 256 file should not require much CPU.Ī DSD 256 file played as DoP sends a PCM stream at 705 KHz. It can use WASAPI or ASIO.Ī DoP stream can come either from a DSD file or from converting PCM to DSD. DoP goes over usb at 176 KHz or multiples of that. So, each 24 bit PCM sample contains 16 bits of DSD data and 8 bits that identify it as a DSD stream. DoP is the 0s and 1s of a DSD file paced in a PCM format. Native DSD goes over the usb at 2.8 MHz or multiples of that and requires an ASIO driver.ĭoP is DSD packed into a PCM package. I think we have a problem with definitions. Sorry, I should have said DSD 256 not DSD 128. If the files are not on the system drive, I would put them there as a test.Īgain, does the sample rate light on the Mojo change when the sound goes away? It should be white when DSD is playing.
Do you have a more powerful PC that you can try? Make sure nothing else is running?Īre your files on a NAS? They can be an access problem.Īre the files on an external drive? If so, is is possible going to sleep? It is the conversion from PCM to DSD that may be the problem. What is your CPU usage when converting PCM to DSD 128? Note that it does not have to be super high to cause glitches when converting to DSD. If it worked in the past but does not now, you may well be on the edge of your systems capability and some change pushed you over the edge. If those play alright but PCM files upsampled to DSD 128 do not, then the conversion to DSD 128 is probably the problem.
By playing native DSD 128, I presume you mean playing DSD 128 files.
