How big of a difference is it using just Roon DSP for DSD to using Roon front end to HQP+NAA? Is HQP conversion much better or is it subtle?
I've not tested Roon DSP for PCM-DSD conversion. Don't know why🙂, just missed this option.
I can try it till the end of the week and give feedback.
...
So HQP server transmits data over a network to NAA at XU4, XU4 transmits it to DAC over USB...
Do you know if XU4 has true RealTime kernel or is a LowLatency version?
If...
you use a Sonore micro Rendu (or ultra Rendu or Signature Rendu SE) as an NAA with HQP, the Rendu can also be a Spotify endpoint, and can server Tidal via Roon or Audirvana (as examples)... that is one way to support HQP/NAA and Tidal and Spotify on the same hardware.
May possible let "Spotify" or "Tidal" sound out to NAA ? Seem like HQplayer does.
Thank you

hello i need some help... anyone using raspberry pi as NAA?
i´m trying to get my dac to work but something is not right...
i followed PureDSD for the signalyst config.
but when i turn on the amp the is huge ground noise... and when it play on song only ear static like "xhhxxxhxhh".
i´m using amanero with short wires following the manual pinout.
using pin 3,4,5, 7,8,9,10.
and pin 11, 13, 14 ,15.
is this pinout correct?
if i turn on the dac without the amanero i don´t ear noise when the amp is turned on.
tks

Hi borrows,
The Sonore device is only allowed to select to configure only one source input at a time.
We need to play music from multiple sources such play music from library which using HQP and streaming online music services from Spotify or Tidal. This means that we would need to reconfig Sonore every time match with the music source. Please advise.
Thank you

pistollero,
do you have the same problem (static noise) with any DSD rate and direct connection of your DSC to computer?
Pls send me photos (to check jumpers and wiring):
- output board
- wired DSC Amanero input connector with connected Amanero
- screenshots of your HQP Settings and Main HQP window while playing.
PRI works up to DSD512 as NAA, but first let's check direct connection.
I'am with 2003be_71A and Linux.

Sonore Rendu's use an online web interface for changing settings/modes. To change from NAA/HQP to Roon or Audirvana as the input to the Rendu is as simple as opening the webpage and two clicks.

OK - barrows. I will try a Sonore device. What are differently between ultra and micro rendu model?
Thank you very much for your advised.

I am not linux guru, but as I know, there is no stable version of true RealTime kernel for Odroid devices. Just basic RT.
I'm with Armbian (kernel 4.14).

Vit,
How big of a difference is it using just Roon DSP for DSD to using Roon front end to HQP+NAA? Is HQP conversion much better or is it subtle?
Today I've tried Sample Rate Converter from Roon DSP Engine for PCM - DSD512.
Hardware:
1. DSC, output board with LL1684, Advanced Amanero with Crystek CCHD-957.
2. Odroid C2 as NAA or Roon Bridge.
3. Win10 PC with AMD ThreadRipper 1950X.
Settings:
1. Roon DSP - conversion to DSD512, Precise filter, Minimum Phase; Modulator - 7th order (CLANS and normall), LPF - 50kHz. CPU load during playback ~ 7%.
2. HQP conversion to DSD512, poly-sinc-xtr-mp, modulator DSD7 256+fs. CPU load during playback ~ 45%.
HQP is noticeably better. More "analog", clear sound. It looks like the difference between simple and "powerfull" HQP filters.
But as a whole Roon DSP is quite good, can be used w/o any problems (fast and non CPU demanding).
Thanks for the info Vit,
When using HQP along with Roon, do you absolutely need to use NAA or it also works with Roon RAAT on bridge?
Can you use a combination of HQP for a certain DAC and use Roon upsampling for other DACs?
Thanks

HQP only works with NAA, ROON - with Bridge. I.e. you can't use ROON with NAA or HQP with Roon Bridge.
But you can:
1. run NAA and Bridge on the same computer and switches ROON - HQP - NAA or ROON - Bridge for the same DAC
2. run NAA and Bridge on different computers, connect two DAC and control stream by ROON (ROON-HQP-NAA-DAC1 and ROON-Bridge-DAC2).
Not sure, but you can try to connect 2 different DAC's (one for NAA, one for Bridge) in 1. I guess it should works fine.
Hi Vit, I would like to order the DSC v2.6.2 board with transformers for 245 USD. RCA/XLR not soldered please.
Thank you. Please inform me when you are ready.
