New USB 2.0 digital audio interface card

[Kovax]

Hi,

Just stumbled upon this one on ebay;

USB digital interface AS318B PCM1536 DSD1024 compatible with Amanero Italy XMOS | eBay

Does anyone have any experience with it? Very much reminds of Amanero's USB card, though specs are inflated (not that it really matters). If the crystals's specs are to be believed it should have pretty good jitter performance. I worry about support for the product.

Happy New Year!!

Has no one experiences with this interface card? Would be interested too.
thanks

I’d be interested in finding out if it actually performed with win10, without extra drivers.

I just ordered one with a dual es9038pro board.
So hopefully I will see in a few weeks, when it arrives

Should you need the drivers for it, this is the response I got when asked for them:

I'm sorry for the late response. I had problem with my Microsoft Account last month, so I can't access this mail box for couple of days.
I think the reseller had already configured it with JLsounds' VID & PID, so, please use JLsounds' driver directly. You can download it from http://jlsounds.com/uploads/JLsounds_USBAudio_v4.67.0.exe
Of course this device can work with any generic USB audio driver. Which means you can configure it with the VID & PID of your favorate 3rd party USB audio driver by yourself. Here is the software tools you may need, https://www.xingcore.com/resource/xing_usb_manual_and_tools_u30.zip . Sorry we only have Chinese version manual currently. You may need google translating it.

Best Regards.

Thanks Kovax,
do you know if a special driver is needed when i´ll use it withing a linux based moOde audio client?

The vendors assertion .."Of course this device can work with any generic USB audio driver." suggests it is UAC2 compliant and as such should work with moOde out of the box.

If you encounter problems try setting the 'UAC2 fix' in the moOde System Configuration tab.

Though I would investigate the JLsounds device...;-) (it may well be an upgrade)
I2SoverUSB - I2S over USB Audio

This is the xmos device I use with moOde (and other O/S) it seems to have universal driver (or the diyinhk one for windows) and works well with my ES 9028/38/18 dacs
XMOS 384kHz DXD DSD256 high-quality USB to I2S/DSD/SPDIF PCB - DIYINHK

OK Thanks a lot for your great support.
So I just need to wait some weeks till components will get delivered, so I can Try and or Error...
I´ll keep you informed if everything works well 😉

I hope you don’t have to wait too long, am now at 9 weeks and counting for my last purchase from the afar.

May be that it takes pretty long from china + Covid19.....
It's my personally first time, to order something directly in China.
So I hope for all, and expect nothing 😉
