Hi
I have LKS audio mh-da003 DAC and decided to connect a second PC to it. I bought XMOS U8 device from aliexpress that supports (DSD64, DSD128, DSD256 (2.822, 3.072, 5.644, 6.144, 11.2896 and 12.288MHz)).
I'm connecting XMOS U8 to DAC via I2S ethernet socket using a standard off the shelf Cat5 network cable. When I play music from foobar in DSD256 I hear a lot of noise.
A question, can I use unmodified Cat 5e network cable for this connection ? Or do I need to re-wire it according to I2S spec of XMOS/DAC ?
ps.
XMOS that I have is
Upgraded version XMOS U8 + TCXO 0.1PPM USB Digital Interface 32Bit / 384K Support DSD PCM I2S AES EBU Coaxial Optical Output -in Amplifier from Consumer Electronics on Aliexpress.com | Alibaba Group
Sorry for a newbie question.
