New XMOS usb 384khz

[JustBuildLspkAS]

Do you use software for controlling the AK4399 ? I want to try in dual mono...

The h/w mode used and mac/amara. About The s/w mode I'm=0

Dual mono Dac (separated box dac,pre-amp-power amp sitting near the speakers) was interested to try ,but to much times&budgets.

I still prefer the modded technique,better&over kill power supply good lay out and wiring material and good AC power system,the SQ of stereo dac still OK for my taste.

Is anyone using the DIYINHK XMOS module with jriver? If so, what settings are you using - WASAPI event style?

 

[Hugh Jazz]

I am not but I often see question for event vs push. If both work, there is not any difference. For some device, only one can work. Both work in Foobar Win7 x64 but I use the ASIO driver.

 

[lordearl]

Thanks - a lot of the standard JRIVER output settings work (direct sound, wasapi, etc), however the best seems to be ASIO - which allows the use of the custom driver, as mentioned by nanoloop.

Hello Diyinhk.

Would it be possibe to implement support for DSD?

I think this is a silly question but will this work with a 24 bit DAC? What if I use a 32 bit stream? Will the DAC take only the 24 most significant bits?

 

[Hugh Jazz]

Yes, it will work. Output is limit at 24 bit. Only 32 bit internal.

Hi guys,can you tell me what is the exact power consumption(ma) from USB?

 

[Hugh Jazz]

It can change for the sample rate and the type of regulator. I measure 155mA before any modification @44.1khz. If no modification, always under 200mA.

What's the drop on regulators?Seems to work fine even with 3.4V from USB

 

[Hugh Jazz]

LP5900 3.3V for the XO have ~80mV dropout. The XMOS want 3.3V or 5V.

Thanks!Can you give me full schematic of the device?

The DIYINHK unit doesn't appear to be on sale any longer - can anyone recommend another similarly sized unit? Any chip except te7022 is fine (doesn't support 192khz).

 

[RollE2k]

The Amanero USB->I2S is much used here.. also does work up to 384kHz + DSD.
The te7022 is not good anyways since it is not async.

 

[lordearl]

Ok great, will give it a go, looks like a quality unit.

 

[RollE2k]

Check the end of the thread.. there is spreadsheet where you can add yourself to the Group Buy, then you will get the price of 39EUR + shipping, otherwise if you buy it directly from the amanero-webpage it will cost 79EUR, so i would advise you to take the groupbuy-way

Found the link to the spreadsheet if you want to add yourself - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmX4TyHWgSmNdE5laDJQNlA3UVBYaWlrczJwYS1EcXc#gid=0

 

[lordearl]

Excellent, thanks.
I was simply planning to get a second DIYINHK board for another project, but this does seem like a good chance to compare two similar boards.

On another note, has anyone using the DIYINHK board noticed a hissing sound in the background every now and then?

 

[fred_com]

Hi guys, just got the board, but link to the drivers appears to be dead (http://www.diyinhk.com/support/DXIO_USB_Audio_Drivers163_20130410.rar).

Could someone upload them to somewhere please?

Thanks,
